(381) Examining the Role of Adverse Childhood Experiences in Multidisciplinary Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Outcomes
Prior research has revealed a high rate (over 80%) of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in the outpatient pediatric chronic pain population. Furthermore, the sub-population of youth with chronic pain reporting a history of ACEs shows increased psychosocial impairment (e.g., anxiety, depression). However, the treatment outcomes of youth with chronic pain and a history of ACEs have not been well examined. The current study investigates the effect of ACEs on psychosocial and pain-related treatment outcomes of youth (N=305) engaged in a multidisciplinary pediatric pain rehabilitation program.
