Detailed Description
-
Before their initial intake appointment, all CCDP patients are given a patient binder that includes the baseline Standardized Questionnaires. These are clinical questionnaires that all patients complete regardless of whether or not they consent to participation in research. In addition to the questionnaires completed at baseline, patients who consent to participate in the data registry will complete the questionnaires, via email or paper copy, at the following time points: approximately 6 months after intake, at discharge and 3 months post-discharge.
-
Patients who consent to the data registry will also be asked to complete a short questionnaire collecting basic demographic information at baseline. The demographic questionnaire will be either mailed to their home or sent via an online link; the investigators will ask participants to complete this form either before or when they come in for their first in-person visit at the CCDP.
-
Additional data will be collected and entered from the clinical chart. Specifically, after the patient's initial clinic appointment, the Research Coordinator or designate will enter data points from the Interdisciplinary Assessment Tool, into REDCap.

Secondary Outcome Measures
- Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (BPI-SF) [Baseline (pre-intake), 6 months, discharge (an average of 21 months), 3 months post-discharge]

It uses a 7- point Liker scale, where 1=Strongly Disagree and 7= Strongly agree. Score range is 1-7. Higher schore indicates more severe fatigue.
