Using the Socioecological Model to Understand Medical Staff and Older Adult Patients' Experience with Chronic Pain: A Qualitative Study in an Underserved Community Setting.
Purpose: Chronic pain is highly prevalent and disabling for older adults, particularly those from underserved communities. However, there is an absence of research on how contextual (eg, community/societal) factors interact with pain for these patients. Informed by the socio-ecological model, this study aimed to elucidate the individual, interpersonal, community, and societal factors associated with chronic pain from the perceptions of older adult patients and medical staff in a community clinic.
Patients and methods: In this qualitative study, we conducted four focus groups and two interviews with medical staff (n=25) and three focus groups and seven individual interviews with older adult patients with chronic pain (n=18). Participants were recruited using purposive sampling from an ethnically and economically diverse primary care clinic in the greater Boston community. We transcribed assessments and thematically analyzed data using a hybrid deductive-inductive approach.
Results: At the individual level, we identified three themes: (1) older adults with complex care needs, (2) impact of pain (including on physical, emotional, work, and identity functioning), and (3) coping with pain. At the interpersonal level, complex relationships with (1) social supports and (2) medical staff emerged as themes. The need for (1) resources and (2) culturally informed care was identified at the community level, and socioeconomic status impacting the availability of resources for managing chronic pain emerged for the societal domain.
Conclusion: Findings underscore the intersection of factors contributing to the experience of pain among older adults from underserved communities. Our findings highlight the need to develop and implement treatments that fully address the experience of older adults with chronic pain at the individual, interpersonal, community, and societal levels.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Pain Research is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that welcomes laboratory and clinical findings in the fields of pain research and the prevention and management of pain. Original research, reviews, symposium reports, hypothesis formation and commentaries are all considered for publication. Additionally, the journal now welcomes the submission of pain-policy-related editorials and commentaries, particularly in regard to ethical, regulatory, forensic, and other legal issues in pain medicine, and to the education of pain practitioners and researchers.
