Description

Summary

The proposed study involves a randomized feasibility pilot trial of a culturally adapted psychological intervention for chronic pain for American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) individuals receiving care for pain at the Portland Area Indian Health Service - Yakama Service Unit. The study will provide information on whether or not it is feasible to conduct a future fully-powered randomized controlled trial.

Official Title

Culturally Adapted Pain Management for Indigenous Peoples in the Pacific Northwest (CAP-I)

Details

The prevalence of chronic pain is higher among American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) people than any other group in the United States. This proposed study aims to begin the process of developing a culturally-adapted psychological intervention for chronic pain among AI/AN individuals receiving care for pain at the Portland Area Indian Health Service - Yakama Service Unit. The K99 phase focused on the development of the intervention and the R00 entails a feasibility randomized pilot trial. The current study (i.e., the R00 phase) aims to assess the feasibility of conducting a future randomized controlled trial with the newly developed culturally-adapted psychological intervention for chronic pain.
