Summary

This is a proof of concept study to measure the effect of Wearable Health Technology (WHT), including the Apple Watch, iPhone, Pain App and Provider Dashboards on important clinical outcomes in patients treated for chronic pain. WHT will be tested in a group of chronic pain patients treated at a specialty pain clinic, the Geisinger Multidisciplinary Pain Program (MPP). Primary and secondary outcomes include pain, physical function, depression, pain medicine use, amount of sleep, activity levels, healthcare resource utilization and cost. The WHT will collect self-reported data on pain, pain management therapies, and medication utilization, and passively collected data on subject activity levels and sleep. Additional data will be collected on device utilization by patients and health care professionals.
