Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which treatment works better for veterans with chronic neck or back pain. This study is comparing three treatments: Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and usual care (whatever a person is already doing to cope with their pain). The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Which treatment works better for lowering pain: PRT, CBT, or usual care? 2. How do the effects of PRT compare with CBT and usual care in terms of pain relief and other factors such as emotional functioning, quality of life, anxiety, and pain medication use? Participants will: 1. Be randomly assigned to receive either PRT, CBT, or usual care. 2. Complete questionnaires about their pain and health. 3. If in the PRT or CBT group, have nine weekly therapy sessions over video calls with a therapist.
Primary Outcome
Last-week average pain intensity is assessed via the Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (BPI-SF). The BPI-SF assesses pain severity and its impact on functioning. It consists of 9 total items including 4 pain intensity items and 5 pain interference items. The 4 pain intensity items measure pain in the last week on a numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain at all) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine).
Interventions
- OTHER Usual Care
- BEHAVIORAL Pain reprocessing therapy (PRT)
- BEHAVIORAL Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain (CBT-CP)
