IMPACT Trial Summary

Pain is the cardinal symptom of acute recurrent and chronic pancreatitis, and available medical treatments have limited efficacy. Pain self-management programs equip patients to minimize the impact of chronic painful conditions on activity, health, and psychosocial functioning. The purpose of the current study is to pilot the use of Internet-delivered pain self-management course in adults with chronic and acute recurrent pancreatitis to generate preliminary feasibility and acceptability data to inform design of a subsequent large randomized controlled trial.
