Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether including a PDA decision support tool plus distance support enhances the outcomes attainable by the MOVE2! (Managing Obesity for Veterans Everywhere) standard care alone. Primary hypotheses are that obese patients with chronic pain who are randomized to MOVE2! + PDA + Support will a) lose more weight by 6 months, b) show greater maintenance of weight loss at 12 months, and c) display greater reduction in pain intensity and pain-related disability than those randomized to Standard Care. Secondary hypotheses are that MOVE2! + PDA + Support, compared to Standard Care will result in: a) improved quality of life, b) greater treatment adherence, and c) reduced care utilization.
