1 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The Integration of Mindfulness and Acupuncture for individuals undergoing Spine Surgery (I-MASS) is a novel combination of integrative treatments to improve post-surgical recovery. This is a single-site, two-arm randomized feasibility and acceptability pilot trial of the I-MASS program plus enhanced patient education compared to enhanced patient education alone in patients undergoing spine surgery. Outcomes data will come from a combination of passive electronic health record data augmented with patient-reported data collected through the Pattern Health app (the mHealth platform used for delivering mindfulness training and collecting data). Outcomes will focus on feasibility and acceptability of I-MASS, feasibility of recruitment and retention strategies, and data collection procedures through both the Pattern Health app and electronic health record. Feasibility will be supported by mindfulness module completion rates, acupuncture visits attended, participant retention, and questionnaire completion rates. Acceptability will be supported by patient-reported satisfaction, acceptability and usability thresholds.
