Activity Monitoring in Patients Undergoing Pain Rehabilitation

Overview

About this study

The primary purpose of this study is to determine if a 3-week interdisciplinary chronic pain self-management program is effective in improving 1) patient-reported measures of pain, function, quality of life mood and sleep; 2) physical capacity; 3) performance as measured by change in activity counts; and 4) sleep efficiency as measured by actigraphy.  Activity and patient reported outcomes as well as measures of performance will all be collected in patients before during and after participation in the 3-week interdisciplinray pain program and subsequently analyzed to determine how much each of these improve over the course of treatment and beyond.
