Summary

Phase 1 - MOST Preparation Phase: 1. To conduct a pilot trial at two opioid use disorder clinic sites, enrolling n=10 at both sites, for a total n=20. 2. Establish clinical trial procedures and document feasibility at both sites prior to conducting a fully powered optimization trial. 3. Demonstrate our ability to a) recruit participants; b) train yoga teachers to fidelity; c) randomize participants to intervention components and correctly administer components; d) run classes; and e) collect follow-up assessments.

  • Plan to continue treatment for next 6 months
  • Chronic pain, defined as pain for at least half the days over the previous three months, a mean score of 4 or higher on the Brief Pain Interference Scale (BPI; with reference to chronic pain), and pain severity of 4 or higher on a Visual Analog Scale (0-10) indicating "worst pain in the last week."

(In cases where this is unclear, site PI will make final determination based on available evidence.)
  • Severe or progressive neurologic deficits. (In cases where this is unclear, site PI will make final determination based on available evidence.)
  • Other severe disabling chronic medical and/or psychiatric comorbidities deemed by the site PI on a case-by-case basis to prevent safe or adequate participation in the study (e.g., cognitive impairment that prevents a participant from understanding assessments; history of disruptive behavior in medical settings; severe disabling heart failure or lung disease)
