Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This project addresses the significant challenge of providing evidence-based non-pharmacologic pain management to rural-dwelling Veterans in the VA healthcare system who have chronic pain. For this preparatory phase (UG3), the investigators will conduct a single-arm pilot study of 40 rural VA patients with chronic pain to assess study feasibility (recruitment and retention), intervention feasibility (fidelity of intervention delivery and participant engagement rates), acceptability, and effectiveness at addressing pre-defined capabilities, opportunities and motivations.
