Summary

Persons with burn-related pain remain under treated and do not have access to comprehensive burn pain management. We seek to extend evidence-based cognitive behavioral pain management strategies to a group of burn survivors that are currently under treated for for burn pain with a specific goal of reducing pain related interference in life activities.

Investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial to test the central hypothesis that a computer-based cognitive-behavioral program (Take Charge of Burn Pain) will improve pain management, psychological health, and improve participation in burn survivors. Specific aims include: 1) to determine the efficacy of a web-based self-management intervention in reducing pain and pain-related interference and increasing pain management self-efficacy; and 2) to determine whether Take Charge of Burn Pain improves psychological health and participation in life activities in persons with burn injury pain. Emerging research suggests that web-based pain management interventions may be a feasible and effective alternative to clinic-based interventions for patients with mobility and geographic restrictions, such as those treated at tertiary burn centers.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

TCBR-Pain

The interactive TCBR-Pain uses programmed learning, skill development and behavioral practice to engage persons with burn pain in self-management of pain and related problems. The TCB-Pain program includes 7 lessons addressing key dimensions of pain management for persons with burn injury. Each session is about 20 minutes and focuses on burn injury recovery and life style education. Sessions begin with a brief self-assessment and in later sessions, the participant is given graphical feedback on their progress. The lessons are narrated and include closed captioning, are animated, and include branching to provide personalized content.
