About this study
This study will investigate if mindfulness training via a smartphone mobile app is effective in improving OA-related knee pain.
Read the detailed description
The investigator's primary aim in this study is to determine if regular use of a mindfulness application improves pain outcomes in adults with knee osteoarthritis. The investigator's secondary aim is to determine if self-reported Healthcare-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scores predict response to mindfulness treatment in OA. The investigators hypothesize that the use of an mHealth intervention for mindfulness training may be an effective adjunct treatment of chronic knee osteoarthritis pain; specifically, that regular use of a mindfulness application will result in a statistically significant reduction in pain outcomes and improvement in physical function as determined by the KOOS scoring system. The investigators also hypothesize that those with lower baseline self-reported HRQoL scores are more likely to see a greater improvement in their pain and function with use of a mindfulness application than those with higher baseline scores.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Intervention -- "Headspace" mindfulness applicationDevice
Patients will be provided with a pre-paid 12-week subscription to the mindfulness application, and provided an in-person demonstration on how to use it, and the subscription license code will be recorded for the purposes of tracking use after the conclusion of the study. The intervention group will be asked to use the mindfulness app 10 minutes per day/5 days per week. To standardize Pack usage across all participants, users will be asked to complete the Headspace Essentials", "Pain Management", and "Physical Health" Session Packs.
Control -- "My Water Balance" applicationDevice
My Water Balance calculates an individual's recommended daily water requirements and assists users in tracking their daily fluid intake. The control group will be asked to log their water intake for the duration of the study, with requested use of 5 days per week to create an equal control. This application is free to download and use. There are options for in-app purchases and application upgrades, though users will be advised against doing so. Information logged in the application may be stored on a third party server; however, no application data will be extracted by the study team. Application use will be reported via weekly surveys, alone.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention with Mindfulness App (Headspace) | Experimental | Patient education regarding osteoarthritis, its natural history, and common treatments plus the mindfulness (intervention) app. Receives: Device: Intervention -- "Headspace" mindfulness application |
| Control with Water App (My Water Balance) | Active comparator | Patient education regarding osteoarthritis, its natural history, and common treatments plus the My Water Balance (control) app and provided an in-person demonstration on how to use it. Receives: Device: Control -- "My Water Balance" application |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Post-intervention change in Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome (KOOS) pain subscale
The KOOS is a validated knee-specific patient-reported outcome survey designed to assess an individual's perception of their knee pain and associated disability. It has 42 items in 5 separately scored subscales; Pain, other Symptoms, ADL function, Sport and Recreation function, and knee-related Quality of Life (QOL). All items are scored 0-4; for each subscale the scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale (0 representing extreme knee problems and 100 representing no knee problems).
Measured: 0,12, 26, 52, and 104 weeks
Secondary outcomes (3)
Change in KOOS subscale scores
The KOOS is a validated knee-specific patient-reported outcome survey designed to assess an individual's perception of their knee pain and associated disability. It has 42 items in 5 separately scored subscales; Pain, other Symptoms, ADL function, Sport and Recreation function, and knee-related Quality of Life (QOL). All items are scored 0-4; for each subscale the scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale (0 representing extreme knee problems and 100 representing no knee problems).
Measured: 0,12, 26, 52, and 104 weeks
Change in Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ) outcomes
The FFMQ-15 is designed to provide a quantitative evaluation of mindfulness. It is based on five independently developed mindfulness questionnaires.The questionnaire has 39 items. The five facets are: observing, describing, acting with awareness, non-judging of inner experience, and non-reactivity to inner experience.
Measured: 0,12, 26, 52, and 104 weeks
Change in Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) self-reported mental and physical health self-assessments
The SF-12 is a generic, multipurpose short-form survey with 12 questions selected from the SF-36 Health Survey which, when combined, scored and weighted, results in two scales of mental and physical functioning and overall health-related quality of life.
Measured: 0,12, 26, 52, and 104 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Intervention -- "Headspace" mindfulness application in people with Osteo Arthritis Knee and Pain, run by jilliansylvester at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Post-intervention change in Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome (KOOS) pain subscale (time frame: 0,12, 26, 52, and 104 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03936088, which also lists 26 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
