Telehealth Pain Self-Management for Employed Adults

Efficacy of a Telehealth Pain Self-Management Intervention in Employed Adults With Physical Disability: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Jan 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The E-TIPS trial will evaluate an evidence-based, telehealth pain self-management intervention compared to standard care (a waitlist) for chronic pain in adults with physical disabilities who are employed. Participants from anywhere in the US will be randomized to either E-TIPS, a cognitive-behavioral pain self-management intervention delivered by telephone, or a waitlist control. Outcomes, including pain interference, will be assessed at baseline, mid-treatment, post-treatment, and 6-month follow up.

Who the study is looking for

  • 18 years of age or older
  • Self-reported physical disability
  • Chronic pain defined as daily pain of ≥ 3 months duration and ≥ 3 average pain intensity in the past week on a 0-10 numerical rating scale
  • Experiences pain for more than 45 out of the past 90 days (defined as 50% of the time or greater)
