Trial Outcomes & Findings for Tailored Non-Pharmacotherapy Services for Chronic Pain (NCT NCT04523714)

NCT ID: NCT04523714

Last Updated: 2026-01-22

Results Overview

Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in pain severity is defined as a 30% or greater improvement in pain severity score. \[Pain severity score assessed via modified 11-item version of the Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPI-SF) from baseline (consistent with IMMPACT guidelines). The BPI-SF range= 0 to 10; higher score = worse pain severity.\] MCID outcome is binary; reported as the adjusted percentage of participants with MCID (\> or =30% improvement) in pain severity.
