Summary

This trial is focused on understanding how contextual patient generated data (PGD) affects Veteran patients 65 and older with chronic pain.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Veterans aged 65 or older with chronic pain, their informal caregivers, and clinicians involved in their care. Participants must be within the Salt Lake City area. It's not suitable for Veterans who require a legal representative to consent.
What is being tested?
The study tests how sharing contextual patient-generated data (like daily routines and support levels) affects satisfaction with care plans and adherence among elderly patients with chronic pain when this information is available during medical visits.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves collecting and using data rather than medication, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be privacy concerns or emotional impacts from discussing personal contexts.
