Summary

Many people living with cystic fibrosis (CF) experience pain. However, pain is sometimes unrecognized and under-managed in people with CF. Both medication and non-medication interventions can be used to treat pain and ideally, there is a multicomponent management approach.

The goal of this study is to pilot a new 3-session non-medication mind-body pain management intervention specifically designed for adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). The intervention is titled Pain Acknowledgement Coping and Empowerment in CF (PACE CF).

PACE CF will be administered by a member of the CF care team via telehealth visits to participants at home or during a hospitalization.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and patient acceptability of the intervention as well as preliminary evidence of the impact of the intervention on pain and its interference in daily life.

The study will also examine outcomes such as perceived coping, quality of life, symptoms of depression or anxiety, and use of prescribed pain medication, in an exploratory manner.

Pain Acknowledgment Coping and Empowerment in CF (PACE CF)

The Pain Acknowledgment Coping and Empowerment in CF (PACE CF) program is a newly developed 3-session mind-body pain management intervention for adults with cystic fibrosis (CF), developed with CF community input. The sessions are delivered by the the CF care team psychologist. Each session will teach mind-body strategies to increase comfort and reduce the impact of pain on the participant\'s life. These strategies include understanding pain in CF from a mind-body perspective, learning relaxation and mindfulness-based skills, identifying and practicing individualized cognitive and behavioral strategies that improve comfort and well-being, and discussing communication skills that empower people living with CF and pain. Participants will receive a workbook that will provide related education and resources and reinforce skill practice.
