Open Pilot Trial of a Mind-Body Intervention for Patients With Chronic Hip Pain
Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital
Summary
The goal of this study is to conduct a feasibility open pilot study (N=5) of HIPS with virtual exit interviews among adult patients with chronic hip joint-related pain (HRP). We will use this mixed methods information to assess the feasibility, credibility, and acceptability of the HIPS intervention and optimize the program and study methodology in preparation for a pilot feasibility randomized control trial (RCT). Deliverables: \[1\] Adapt and refine open pilot protocol, patient recruitment, provider training, and other study materials. \[2\] Assess the feasibility, acceptability, and credibility of HIPS in preparation for a future feasibility RCT.

Interventions
HIPS
HIPS is a 6-session (one 30-minute session per week) mind-body intervention delivered virtually via live video by a trained physical therapist (PT). Across these six 30-minute sessions, the HIPS intervention aims to teach relaxation and coping skills (e.g., SMART goal-setting, coping thoughts, deep breathing, and progressive muscle relaxation) and provides pain education.
