Summary

PREDICT-DOLOR VE is a structured clinical triage protocol for chronic pain that uses five internationally validated pain assessment instruments to help healthcare providers determine the appropriate level of care for patients with chronic pain. The tool operates on a free mobile-friendly platform and generates a four-level recommendation: primary care management, referral to physiatry or neurology, priority specialist evaluation, or evaluation for neurosurgical intervention.

This study will validate the diagnostic accuracy of the PREDICT-DOLOR VE algorithm by comparing its recommendations with the independent assessment of a panel of three specialists in adult patients with chronic pain (lasting 3 months or longer) across three referral centers in Venezuela. The study aims to determine whether this structured, low-cost approach can help connect patients with the right type of care more quickly and consistently.
