About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) intervention on the distribution and variability of pain level before and after intervention receipt among people with co-occurring chronic pain and Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) over a three-month follow-up period.

Read the detailed description

The project is an open trial of the CBT intervention for 20 adults receiving detoxification treatment with comorbid pain. Participants will be screened for pain and other conditions by completing a self-report survey questionnaire. Eligible participants will be asked to complete a baseline assessment. A trained research therapist will conduct individual therapy with participants twice a week for 2-4 weeks. Participants will be re-assessed at 1- and 3-month post-intervention follow-ups to track changes in their pain, functioning, and substance use.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of participants with decrease in pain level ≥ 18 % (or two points) on the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    Pain level will be assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The NRS is a 0-10 scale, with higher scores indicating greater intensity of pain.

    Measured: 3 months post-intervention

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of participants with decrease in pain level ≥ 18 % (or two points) on the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (time frame: 3 months post-intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
