Digital Treatment for Chronic Pain and Addiction in Veterans With Opioid Use Disorder Receiving Buprenorphine (NCT07361432)
Improving Pain and Functioning Using an Integrative Digital Treatment for Chronic Pain and Addiction in Veterans With Opioid Use Disorder Receiving Buprenorphine
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Chronic pain is common in individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) and the first-line treatment, Medication for OUD (MOUD), does not address the considerable functional impairments associated with chronic pain. Veterans with OUD and chronic pain could benefit from integrated, behavioral treatment for chronic pain and addiction, but VHA MOUD clinics often lack the resources to offer these services. The proposed study will examine the effectiveness of an evidence-based digital chronic pain and addiction treatment that Veterans can do from home, which can provide a flexible option for Veterans to engage in treatment from home and the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) a means to provide care without placing trained clinicians at each facility.
