In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness, and retention of patient participants of a CIH Stepped Care approach for co-occurring chronic pain and PTSD vs. treatment as usual in two primary care settings (one rural and one urban). Researchers will compare CIH Stepped Care to treatment as usual. Participants will complete assessments at baseline, 3-months, 6-months, and 9-months, and those in the CIH Stepped Care condition will participate in the intervention while also completed assessments every 2-weeks, which helps determine their treatment. We hypothesize that, at 6-months, CIH Stepped Care will be feasible, acceptable, and appropriate (defined by an average of 4/5 on each measure) to patients and clinic employees and result in at least 70% of individuals be retained in each condition (n=21 per condition).
