About this study

Official title: Comparing the Effects of an Audio-Recorded Brief Mindfulness-Based Intervention With a Nurse-Led Brief Mindfulness-Based Intervention for Preoperative Knee and Hip Replacement Patients

This is a single-site, three-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial (RCT). The clinical effects of a nurse-led, very brief, preoperative mindfulness-based intervention for hip and knee replacement patients will be investigated relative to an audio-recorded very brief, preoperative mindfulness-based intervention delivered during the standard nurse consult and a nurse-led preoperative pain psychoeducation intervention during the standard nurse consult.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Standard Pain ManagementBehavioural

    Nurses will provide psychoeducation about pain along with common pain coping strategies, such as rest, ice, and elevation, for use any time they experience intense pain or take pain medication before and after surgery.

  • Audio-Recorded Mindfulness-Based InterventionBehavioural

    Nurses will read patients a brief (1 minute) scripted, introduction to mindfulness and then have them listen to a very brief (1 minute 30 second) guided mindfulness practice validated in our prior research to encourage focused attention on breath and body sensations and open monitoring and acceptance of discursive thoughts, negative emotions, and pain. Finally, patients will be given an audio recording of the mindful pain management technique for use any time.

  • Nurse-Led Mindfulness-Based InterventionBehavioural

    Nurses will read patients a brief (1 minute) scripted, introduction to mindfulness and then guide them through a very brief (1 minute 30 second) mindfulness practice validated in our prior research to encourage focused attention on breath and body sensations and open monitoring and acceptance of discursive thoughts, negative emotions, and pain. Finally, patients will be given an audio recording of the mindful pain management technique for use any time.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Pain Intensity Numeric Rating Scale

    Single Likert scale item ranging from 0-10, with 0 indicating no pain and 10 representing the most intense pain imaginable.

    Measured: Baseline and after the 10 minute preoperative nurse visit

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in Pain Unpleasantness Numeric Rating Scale

    Single Likert scale item ranging from 0-10, with 0 indicating no pain and 10 representing the most unpleasant pain imaginable.

    Measured: Baseline and after the 10 minute preoperative nurse visit

  2. Change in Pain Medication Desire Numeric Rating Scale

    Single Likert scale item ranging from 0-10, with 0 indicating no desire for pain medication and 10 representing a strong desire for pain medication.

    Measured: Baseline and after the 10 minute preoperative nurse visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Standard Pain Management, Audio-Recorded Mindfulness-Based Intervention and Nurse-Led Mindfulness-Based Intervention in people with Pain and Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by University of Utah.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Change in Pain Intensity Numeric Rating Scale (time frame: Baseline and after the 10 minute preoperative nurse visit). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Mar 2023.
