Study Summary
The primary objective of this study is to explore the feasibility and acceptability of the delivery of educational content using a virtual reality headset in the setting of an outpatient physical therapy (PT) course of care for chronic low back pain. We aim to collect both qualitative and quantitative data regarding: 1) specifics of device use in the course of PT care 2) acceptability of both the content and delivery method from the therapist and subject perspective 3) subject attributes to characterize the study population and explore possible associations with content responses and 4) changes in pain knowledge from pre to post intervention. Information learned in this pilot study will assist us in 1) improving the content and delivery method of a chronic pain education program 2) implementing the program across the Spaulding rehabilitation network and 3) designing a more rigorous effectiveness trial.
