Summary:

Although digital health technologies are now widely available for both therapeutic and monitoring applications, there are wide variations in patient knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and preferences regarding their uptake and effectiveness. There are also sociodemographic variations in willingness to participate in digital health research studies, both for chronic pain and other common disorders. However, few efforts have systematically examined patient-level predictors of digital health uptake and benefit among diverse individuals who experience chronic pain. This research will employ mixed methods to examine variations in engagement and benefit among diverse participants in a large clinical trial examining the benefits of virtual reality for treatment of chronic lower back pain.
