Summary

This project tests a brief evidence-based video to help educate patients regarding effective and safe pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies for acute musculoskeletal pain (MSP). Subjects will be randomly placed into one of two study arms: intervention (educational video) and usual care. Patients will be contacted at baseline and at 1 and 3 months after the date of an emergency department (ED) or urgent care encounter for follow-up. The aim of this study is to evaluate the success of the intervention for improving pain recovery and preventing long-term opioid use among adults with musculoskeletal pain.

The overarching hypothesis of this work is that complementing prescribing policies with patient education based on a shared decision-making approach to pain management can improve pain recovery and reduce progression to long-term opioid use. The proposed study is innovative because it will be the first clinical trial of a patient-centered intervention designed for the primary prevention of long-term opioid use.

BEHAVIORAL

Educational video

Development of the original video used a systematic approach that included a review of literature and current pain management guidelines and input from emergency physicians, geriatricians, and experts in pharmacology, physical therapy, and risk communication. The video offers information about the pharmacologic management of acute musculoskeletal pain (MSP) and recovery-promoting behaviors. Each video section is followed by a multiple-choice question to promote interaction and reinforce learning. The actress for the 13-minute video is a 56-year-old mixed-race woman who presents herself as a healthcare provider. The video script will typically be shown to the patient within 48-72 hours of the acute care visit, with a maximum window of 5 days post visit.
