Randomized Controlled Trial
Telementoring for improving primary care provider knowledge and competence in managing chronic pain: A randomised controlled trial.
Primary care providers are frequently unprepared to manage chronic pain adequately due in part to insufficient professional training. This study evaluated the effect of a telementoring intervention on knowledge and perceived competence related to chronic pain management. ⋯ Further research is recommended to establish the effectiveness of this telementoring intervention.
