Description

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit cooperative agreement applications to conduct multisite embedded pragmatic or implementation trials to inform the uptake of pharmacologic, nonpharmacologic, and/or multicomponent approaches for acute and/or chronic sickle cell disease (SCD) pain management in health care systems that serve the SCD population. Trials may include or allow continuation of opioid medication as needed; however opioid medication use alone should not be the only intervention studied. Trials may propose methods to implement, improve adherence, or evaluate the effectiveness of guidelines for pain management in patients with SCD in various health care settings. Trials supported under this initiative could also address social and structural barriers such as stigma and racial bias to SCD pain management care.
