Pre-op CBT to Reduce the Risk for Development of Chronic Post-surgical Pain in Patients Undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Computer-Assisted Preoperative CBT Intervention (PAINTrainer) for Chronic Post-Surgical Pain. Completed, enrolled 54 participants across 4 sites.
Detailed Summary
A significant number of patients develop chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) following knee replacement surgery. Proposed is the testing of a novel computer-assisted behavioral intervention integrating motivational interviewing in the 4 weeks prior to surgery to address the risk factors for CPSP, with the expectation that severity of post-op pain and the incidence of CPSP will be reduced.

Timeline
Interventions
Subjects will be asked to complete eight (8) 30- to 45-minute educational sessions during the 4 weeks prior to your surgery. In addition to the computer based training sessions, there is a motivational interviewing component that requires subjects to meet with a member of the study team weekly for a total of four (4) 30- to 45-minute meetings to help manage opioid medication use. It is expected that subject participation in this arm of the study will be a total of 12 hours over the course of the entire study.
