Study summary

Chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) pain, which includes spinal pain, osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia, is a common and costly problem for older adults and is associated with decreased quality of life. In this project, investigators propose to create Reclaim Your Day (RYD), which will consist of 6, 30-min weekly video episodes highlighting patients' inspiring and illustrative experiences living with chronic pain in order to teach current patients with chronic MSK pain how to apply ACT's evidence-based strategies. INvestigators will conduct a pilot RCT (n=100) of older adults with chronic MSK pain. All participants will receive an introductory pain education video. Participants will be randomized to receive either RYD or a comparison intervention (health education videos). Investigators will examine RYD feasibility and acceptability as well as changes over time in outcomes (pain interference, depression, quality of life) and putative mediators.

Read the detailed description

Chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) pain, which includes spinal pain, osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia, is a common and costly problem for older adults and is associated with decreased quality of life. There is a clear need for interventions that increase one's ability to cope with chronic pain and engage in meaningful life activities even with the presence of chronic pain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapy that uses mindfulness and psychological acceptance to support individuals in working toward behavioral goals guided by their personal values, even in the presence of undesirable experiences such as chronic pain. Clinical practice guidelines recommend the use of ACT for treating chronic pain based on evidence of effectiveness from multiple RCTs. However, uptake and reach are limited because there are insufficient numbers of mental health professionals who currently offer ACT or other recommended therapies (e.g., cognitive-behavioral therapy) for chronic pain. In addition, many older adults are not willing or able to engage in traditional psychotherapy for chronic pain even when it is available. Although some bibliotherapy and digital health interventions (e.g., apps) have been developed for treating pain, many older adults fail to use them due to low levels of comfort with technology or lack of motivation for intensive self-guided approaches. Narrative communication is an alternative way to deliver behavior change principles that involves "storytelling" involving real patients talking about their struggles and recovery progress. Therapeutic narratives delivered via videos may be more engaging and immersive than traditional self-help formats for older adults. In this project, investigators propose to create Reclaim Your Day (RYD), which will consist of 6, 30-min weekly video episodes highlighting patients' inspiring and illustrative experiences living with chronic pain in order to teach current patients with chronic MSK pain how to apply ACT's evidence-based strategies. Investigators will conduct a pilot RCT (n=100) of older adults with chronic MSK pain. All participants will receive an introductory pain education video. Participants will be randomized to receive either RYD or a comparison intervention (health education videos). Investigators will examine RYD feasibility and acceptability as well as changes over time in outcomes (pain interference, depression, quality of life) and putative mediators.

  2. Pain interferes with everyday activities.
  3. Age 55 or older.
  4. Proficiency in English sufficient to engage in and understand assessments and materials.
  5. Reliable internet access.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Currently receiving acceptance/mindfulness or similar psychotherapy for chronic pain management.
  2. Current severe substance use problems.
  3. Cognitive impairment that would interfere with a person's capacity to complete the study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ)

    The Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ) is an 8 item self-report measure of patient satisfaction with treatment. The total score will be used and ranges from 8 to 32 with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction with treatment.

    Time frame: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) - Pain Interference subscale

    The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) - Pain Interference subscale is a 7-item patient-reported rating of how much pain interferes with daily functioning on 0-10 numeric scales and is typically scored as the mean of the 7 items (range 0-10, higher scores = greater interference).

    Time frame: 6 weeks

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started May 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Aug 2027, 15 months after the start.

Of 1,295 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Chronic Pain, half reached primary completion within 20 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 39. This study's planned 15 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 1,378 studies reached it within 20 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 38.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 19, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
