Brief summary (from the registry)

The overall aim of the project is to evaluate the Help Overcoming Pain Early model (which includes patient education, person-centered health dialogues and pain/stress management), which is an adolescent-centered school health prevention program when adolescents have chronic pain. This is an intervention that has the hypothesis to support students to manage their chronic pain. The primary outcome is self-efficacy. Secondary outcomes are self-rated health, quality of sleep, pain intensity and school attendance. The project aims to evaluate the intervention through qualitative and quantitative data collection by students and school nurses. The project has a hybrid design, which means that outcomes of the intervention and the evaluation of the implementation are taking place in the same data collection. The results of this project can be of great importance in the early detection of students with chronic pain and promote their confidence in their own ability to manage their symptoms.
