No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Psychological factors such as stress, distress, anxiety, depression, and poor coping strategies may be associated with ongoing pain following injuries such as fractures. To study this relationship, patients will undergo cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) which is designed to modify such thoughts with the goal of reducing ongoing pain and improving quality of life. The goal of this study is to determine if CBT, versus usual care, reduces the prevalence of moderate to severe persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP) over 12-months post-fracture

Conditions

  • Pain, Postoperative
  • Fractures, Open
  • Fractures, Closed

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Participants who are randomized to the CBT intervention will be encouraged to begin CBT immediately following randomization. The CBT intervention will focus on addressing maladaptive beliefs related to pain and recovery as well as teaching skills to enhance coping and management of pain symptoms. The specific focus of CBT sessions will be informed by each individual patient's responses to baseline questionnaires. All other aspects of post-operative care will be at the discretion of participant's surgeon. Other Name: CBT
