Brief summary (from the registry)
Due to its specific pathophysiology and impact on health outcomes, the Institute of Medicine has described chronic pain as a complex chronic disease and a "national public health crisis." The unique neurobiological basis and psychosocial context of chronic pain in HIV-infected patients underscores the importance of developing and testing a behavioral intervention specifically tailored to this population. This study will pilot test a newly-developed behavioral intervention for chronic pain tailored to individuals with HIV.
