Summary

This trial tests a virtual program called iPAWS for adolescents and young adults having their wisdom teeth removed. The program teaches safe, effective ways to handle post-surgical pain and aims to reduce cannabis and other substance use. Researchers are enrolling 150 participants aged 15 to 20 to see if the program is feasible and acceptable.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
A virtual brief behavioral program called iPAWS that combines motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and pain coping skills.
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could offer a scalable way to help young people manage post-surgical pain safely and reduce cannabis or other substance use.
What could go wrong
This is an early feasibility trial, so it is not yet designed to prove the program works. Results may not apply to other procedures or populations.
