The Pain Intervention via Video Optimization Trial

This project tests a short, evidence-based video to help educate patients about effective and safe pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies for acute musculoskeletal pain (MSP).

Patients will be contacted at baseline and at 1 and 3 months after the date of their acute visit encounter for follow-up.

Perceptions of artificial light at night on the Outer Banks

The 2023 OBXFS Capstone study will explore human perceptions of electrical lighting and artificial light at night (ALAN) on the ocean coast of the Outer Banks of North Carolina. In an increasingly illuminated world, ALAN has many unintended consequences related to energy usage, ecology, human health, safety, and the night sky. Yet, ALAN is still rarely considered a serious problem due to low awareness by the pubic and governing authorities. The study will also assess residents' and visitors' opinions and perceptions regarding light pollution, including knowledge and perceived effects and risks, as well as levels of acceptability of preserving dark areas or reducing lighting, though a structured survey.

MAGIC: More Access to Group Integrative Care for Patients with Chronic Pain

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility implementing Integrative Medical Group Visits (IMGVs) for patients with chronic pain in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). IMGVs are an innovative way of delivering care for patients with chronic pain, combining medical care, group support, health education, and experiential activities such as mindfulness, chair yoga, and self-massage. IMGVs have been studied before and found to be helpful for patients. In this study, we are evaluating how to implement IMGVs into community health centers that receive funding from the federal government to provide care to patients regardless of ability to pay---called FQHCs. We will look at outcomes related to effectiveness of IMGVs to address chronic pain, as well as cost to the patients and clinic, acceptability and feasibility of delivering the program, and sustainability of keeping IMGVs going at the clinic over time.
