Summary

This study looked at whether giving doctors information about what matters to older Veterans with chronic pain—like how they store medications and what help they get at home—can improve pain care. Researchers talked to 230 Veterans aged 65 and older, their caregivers, and clinicians to develop a computer tool that displays this patient-generated data during visits. The goal was to see if this extra information helps patients follow their pain care plan and feel more satisfied with their care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
contextual patient-generated health data (PGHD) display
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help doctors better understand older patients' daily lives and improve pain care plans and satisfaction.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study focused on feasibility and patient satisfaction, not a treatment. Results may not apply to all older adults or settings.
