Summary
This trial investigates the effects of 3 audio-recorded mindfulness interventions on foot and ankle pain relative to a control.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 seeking treatment for foot and ankle pain at the University Orthopaedic Center. It's not suitable for those with a current cancer diagnosis, unstable illnesses that could affect participation, or cognitive impairments preventing them from following study procedures.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing three different brief mindfulness practices against basic pain coping information to see which helps more with foot and ankle pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups and listen to a short audio recording related to their group.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive mindfulness practices and educational information, there are no significant side effects expected. However, some individuals might experience discomfort or emotional distress when engaging in mindfulness if it brings up difficult thoughts or feelings.
