Chronic pain is a major public health problem that places many burdens on individuals,
including impairment of physical and psychological functioning, lost productivity, and side
effects of medications used to treat pain. There is also substantial evidence that minority
populations differ both in prevalence and outcomes of chronic pain; access to care is a key
component in these differences. Strong evidence now supports the use of acupuncture in the
treatment of chronic pain conditions, including when provided in the primary care setting to
participants from ethnically diverse, medically underserved populations. Acupuncture is
slowly being integrated into pain management in many conventional health care settings, but
cost and reimbursement for this service remain obstacles to offering acupuncture, especially
in primary care and safety net settings. Because group acupuncture can be offered at much
lower cost, demonstrating that individual and group delivery are equally effective could
reduce barriers to use of this effective pain management approach.
The primary aim of this study will be to evaluate whether acupuncture delivered in the group
setting for participants with chronic pain is equal to acupuncture delivered in the
individual setting. A secondary objective will be to use qualitative analysis to understand
and describe the participants' experience of both acupuncture approaches, and to utilize this
data to inform intervention delivery and dissemination, to better incorporate the
participants' perspective.

Primary | Pain Interference as Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) (Intent to Treat Model) | The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) short form, is a self-reported questionnaire that serves as the primary measure of how much the participants' pain interferes with daily life. Pain interference is calculated using 7 questions that range from a score of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable). The scores are added and divided by 7, therefore final scores can range from 0 - 10. Having a higher mean score indicates your pain severity is worse. Investigators measured improvement in BPI pain interference from baseline to week 24 (12 weeks after treatment window). The definition of intent to treat is all participants who were randomized into treatment. Statistical analysis only performed on baseline and week 12 (end of treatment) data. | Baseline, Week 12 (end of treatment window), and Week 24 (12 Weeks After Treatment Window) | |

Primary | Improvement in Pain Interference as Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) at Week 12 (Intent to Treat Model) | The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) short form, is a participant reported questionnaire that serves as the primary measure of how much your pain interferes with your life. It is a quality of life measure. Pain interference is calculated using 7 questions that range from a score of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable). The scores are added and divided by 7, therefore final scores can range from 0 - 10. Having a higher score indicates your pain interference is worse. Respondent data is used for this analysis which shows whether participants experienced improvement in their pain interference from baseline to the end of treatment window (week 12). 30% improvement is a decrease of >=2 points on the BPI from baseline to the end of treatment window (week 12). A 30% decrease is considered a clinically significant improvement in pain. The definition of intent to treat is all participants who were randomized into treatment. Only participants who completed a week 12 questionnaire were analyzed. | Baseline, Week 12 (End of Treatment Window) | |

If they did take any opioids in the last week we asked how many days they took their opioid medication. We collected data on the mean number of days participants took prescription opioid medication from baseline to week 24 (12 weeks after treatment window). The definition of intent to treat is all participants who were randomized into treatment. Statistical analysis only performed on baseline and week 12 (end of treatment) data. | Baseline, Week 12 (end of treatment window), and Week 24 (12 Weeks After Treatment Window) | |
Secondary | Number of Days Participants Reported Using Prescription Opioids in the Last 7 Days (Per Protocol Model) | Participants were asked whether they took any opioid medication within the last week. If they did take any opioids in the last week we asked how many days they took their opioid medication. We collected data on the mean number of days participants took prescription opioid medication from baseline to week 24 (12 weeks after treatment window). The definition of Per Protocol is all participants who were randomized and who attended >=8 sessions of acupuncture. Statistical analysis only performed on baseline and week 12 (end of treatment) data. | Baseline, Week 12 (end of treatment window), and Week 24 (12 Weeks After Treatment Window) | |
Secondary | Change in Participant Opioid Use in Milligrams of Morphine Equivalents (MME) Between 3 Months Pre and 3 Months Post-treatment Using Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Data (Intent to Treat Model) | Milligrams of Morphine Equivalence (MME) is a value assigned to represent how strong an opioid is. It is determined by calculating a dose of morphine equivalent to the prescribed opioid. We compared the MME for participants who had Opioid prescriptions in their electronic medical records (EMR) during the 6 month period around treatment (3 months prior and post-treatment). A smaller MME indicates that the participant was using less medication. The definition of intent to treat is all participants who were randomized into treatment. The analysis is limited to participants who have documented opioid prescriptions in EMR. The change in MME was defined as post treatment minus pre treatment (in milligrams). | 6-Month Period Around Treatment Window (3 months pre- and 3 months post-treatment) | |

Secondary | Participants With Opioid Prescription Within a 6 Month Period Around Treatment Window According to Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Data (Intent to Treat Model) | Participants' electronic medical records (EMR) were reviewed to see if they had a prescription for opioids during the 6-month period around their treatment window (3 months pre- and 3 months post-treatment). The definition of intent to treat is all participants who were randomized into treatment. There were 191 total participants that had "any documented opioid prescriptions in EMR. | 6-Month Period Around Treatment Window (3 months pre- and 3 months post-treatment) | |
