{ "Mindfulness Interventions for Military Postsurgical Knee Pain", "This study is for military members who are having total knee replacement surgery and experience chronic knee pain. It's testing if two types of mindfulness practices can help reduce pain and the need for opioid medications after surgery. The interventions are \"Brief mindfulness\" (a 15-minute guided practice) and \"Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE)\" (an 8-session program that includes mindfulness, coping skills, and focusing on positive emotions). You would be compared to people receiving standard care, which includes a preoperative class and pain medications. We'll know if the interventions are successful by looking at your knee pain and function using the WOMAC index over 9 months. The study aims to enroll 500 participants and its current status is unclear.", "design": "This is an interventional study that plans to enroll 500 participants. It's designed as a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART).", "commitments": "You would participate in either a 15-minute guided mindfulness practice, an 8-session mindfulness program, or standard preoperative and postoperative care. Your knee pain and function will be measured from the start of the study up to 9 months later.", "compensation": "Not stated in the trial record.", "follow_up": "Your knee pain and function will be followed for 9 months after the start of the study.", }
