First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a computer tool that helps doctors and patients with chronic pain make treatment decisions together. The tool was used in primary care clinics for patients with long-term muscle or bone pain who had recently taken opioids. The goal was to see if clinics would adopt the tool and if it improved shared decision-making.
