Developing and evaluating the effectiveness of an interprofessional model of care for chronic musculoskeletal pain
EF 2022-23
Résumé
Chronic pain affects the physical, psychosocial and emotional health of patients, with 40% (2.4 million people) experiencing limitations in their activities of daily living. Although an interprofessional team approach is recommended for managing chronic pain, there are difficulties with timely access to such teams in part due to long waitlists. The proposed research seeks to test the feasibility of a study to evaluate the impacts of a new interprofessional model of care in a multidisciplinary chronic pain clinic with a physiotherapist as the first point of contact. The research will identify the facilitators and strategies for implementing the new model of care and test the feasibility of a future clinical trial. The results will provide critical information to inform the future clinical trial, which will provide evidence on the impact of the new model of care on patient health outcomes, wait times, and costs of care.
