Abstract Objective Pain self-management information and support, delivered by peers, are a potentially useful approach to help patients who are struggling to manage their chronic pain. Before implementation into clinical settings, it is important to understand factors that may influence the success of implementation. The purpose of this study was to explore facilitators and barriers to implementation of peer support for chronic pain. Design Semistructured interviews were conducted with clinicians who provide care to patients with chronic pain, regarding their perceptions of the proposed peer support intervention. Setting A single US Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Subjects Using maximum variation sampling, 15 providers were interviewed (11 women, four men). Clinicians’ disciplines included primary care, physical therapy, nursing, clinical psychology, social work, and pharmacy. Results Findings indicated that clinicians 1) had an overall positive perception of the intervention; 2) had specific intervention outcomes they wanted for patients; 3) anticipated that the intervention could positively influence their role; 4) anticipated barriers to intervention participation and maintenance; and 5) had concerns regarding peer coach selection. Findings are discussed in the context of the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Conclusions Understanding clinician perceptions of a peer support intervention is critical for successful implementation. The feedback collected in this study will facilitate implementation of the intervention on a broader scale, allowing more patients to benefit.

Aim. Testing the effectiveness of peer support additionally to a disease management programme (DMP) for type 2 diabetes patients.Methods. Unblinded cluster-randomised controlled trial (RCT) involving 49 general practices, province of Salzburg, Austria. All patients enrolled in the DMP were eligible,n=337participated (intervention: 148 in 19 clusters; control: 189 in 20 clusters). The peer support intervention ran over 24 months and consisted of peer supporter recruitment and training, and group meetings weekly for physical exercise and monthly for discussion of diabetes related topics.Results. At two-year follow-up, adjusted analysis revealed a nonsignificant difference inHbA1cchange of 0.14% (21.97 mmol/mol) in favour of the intervention (95% CI −0.08 to 0.36%,p=0.22). Baseline values were 7.02 ± 1.25% in the intervention and 7.08 ± 1.25 in the control group. None of the secondary outcome measures showed significant differences except for improved quality of life (EQ-5D-VAS) in controls (4.3 points on a scale of 100; 95% CI 0.08 to 8.53,p=0.046) compared to the intervention group.Conclusion. Our peer support intervention as an additional DMP component showed no significant effect onHbA1cand secondary outcome measures. Further RTCs with a longer follow-up are needed to reveal whether peer support will have clinically relevant effects.Trial Registration. This trial has been registered with Current Controlled Trials Ltd. (ISRCTN10291077).
