NOTUS Feasibility Study: Reducing Chronic Low Back Pain With Mobile App Intervention

This feasibility study will investigate the feasibility of screening, recruiting, and delivering a mobile app intervention that involves pain education and clinical hypnosis to people seeking treatments for chronic low back pain (chronic LBP) in general practices in Australia. This study aims to assess the recruitment strategy, the willingness of participants to be included in the proposed treatments, whether the intervention can be delivered as intended within the health care system and clinical setting, the adherence of participants to the proposed treatment, response rates to questionnaires, loss to the short-term follow-up, and the appropriateness and acceptability of the interventions. This feasibility study will inform possible modifications in the recruitment and treatments for the main clinical trial. A total of 60 participants will be randomised into two treatment groups.
