Sponsor's own description
This is an open-label cohort study of chronic pain patients referred to an interdisciplinary community outpatient clinic. The aim of this study is to determine whether video consultations are non-inferior to regular consultations in diagnosing and planning subsequent interventions. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in the International Statistical Classification of Diseases 10th edition (ICD-10) codes established via telehealth and subsequent clinic visits. The patients will complete standard health questionnaires online and undergo a structured and detailed interview to clarify the diagnosis and establish appropriate treatment. A limited telehealth physical examination based on direct observation will be conducted. At the subsequent clinic visit, the accuracy of diagnosis and adherence to the plan of care will be evaluated. The primary and secondary endpoints will be gathered from the electronic charts and from the recruited participants by questionnaires completed online one week after the telemedicine consultation. The diagnosis and plan of care semi-structured match will be performed during the in-person follow-up visit.
