Preliminary Feasibility and Efficacy of Behavioral Intervention to Reduce Pain-Related Disability in Pediatric SCD

Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
Preliminary Feasibility and Efficacy of The Balance Program to Reduce the Impact of Pain on Daily Functioning in Pediatric Sickle Cell Disease

Clinical Trial Summary

Pain is the primary complication of sickle cell disease (SCD), including vaso-occlusive crises and more persistent, chronic pain. SCD-related pain is associated with significant functional impairment, spanning poor school attendance, decreased quality of life, and stress and mood difficulties. Pharmacological approaches are the first-line treatment for SCD-related pain, but these can be costly and have unwanted side effects. Given limitations from pharmacological approaches and the influence that poor behavioral responses have on disease management and health outcomes suggest a critical need for alternative and adjunctive treatments. Due to gaps in available behavioral treatments specifically designed for addressing common challenges associated with pain management in pediatric SCD, the investigators developed a manualized behavioral therapy protocol by tailoring existing evidence-based treatments. The overall goal of the intervention is to reduce the impact of pain on daily functioning in pediatric SCD. This study will empirically test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of this intervention for youth with SCD. Children and adolescents with SCD between the ages of 8 and 17 years old (n=20) will be recruited to complete the treatment protocol. Feasibility will be assessed by examining participation and program completion rates, as well as feedback from a treatment acceptability questionnaire and qualitative interview. Participants will complete baseline assessments, weekly questionnaires, and post-treatment assessments (post-intervention assessment, follow-up time points: 1-month following the intervention, and 3-months following the intervention).
