NCT ID NCT07404618
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a 6-week video program called Reclaim Your Day, where older adults with chronic pain watch peers share how they cope and improve their lives. 100 participants aged 55+ will be randomly assigned to watch either these peer stories or general health videos. The goal is to see if the peer videos are acceptable and help reduce pain interference and boost quality of life.
What this could mean

- Active substance
- peer narrative video intervention (Reclaim Your Day)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a low-cost, accessible way for older adults to better manage chronic pain and improve daily functioning.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage pilot study (100 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. The videos may not help everyone, and results may not apply to all older adults with chronic pain.
