Personalizing Veteran Pain Care: Adapting Coaching Interventions

This study is looking at a new way to help U.S. military Veterans manage chronic musculoskeletal pain (pain in muscles, bones, or joints that has lasted for at least 3 months). The study is testing a coaching intervention designed to help Veterans create and stick with personalized self-care plans for their pain. The main goal is to see how well the study can recruit and keep participants, and to understand if the coaching is acceptable to Veterans. You may be able to join if you are a U.S. military Veteran with chronic musculoskeletal pain and are at least 18 years old. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

Study design
This study is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 30 participants. It will use a randomized feasibility study design with two parallel groups.
What's involved
The study will measure outcomes at 3 months and 6 months, suggesting participants will be involved for at least that long. The specific activities involved in the coaching intervention will be updated before enrollment.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for 6 months after the intervention.
