The state of Utah currently has 41 active clinical trials seeking participants for Pain research studies. These trials are conducted in various cities, including Salt Lake City, Murray, Ogden and West Jordan.
Mindful Waiting Room
Recruiting
This will be a single-site, five-arm, parallel group randomized control trial involving patients seeking integrative healthcare. Four different styles of 5-minute, audio-recoded mindfulness practices delivered in the clinic waiting room will be compared with a 5-minute audio-recording about integrative healthcare. A secondary sub-analysis will investigate the most effective mindfulness practice style for patients presenting at the clinic with elevated anxiety, depression, or pain.
