Abstract

PURPOSE: Pain consists of biological, psychological, and sociological elements that are influenced by the aging process. Pain management in older adults may be improved by multimodal strategies that impact the biopsychosocial model. Chronic musculoskeletal pain in older adults is often linked with social isolation which limits the use of in-person nonpharmacologic therapies. The purpose of this study was to compare two interactive routines delivered with artificial intelligence (AI) on pain severity, pain interference, and other outcomes in older adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain that live alone.
