Vivli Data Sharing User Story: Developing an integrated model to manage chronic lower back pain: Sharing data from the REACH initiative

Vivli worked with the the UCSF Dept. of Orthopaedic Surgery to share data as part of the funding it recevied as part of the NIH HEAL program to establish the Core Center for Patient-centric, Mechanistic Phenotyping in Chronic Low Back Pain, or REACH. REACH is a member of the Back Pain Consortium (BACPAC) Research Program, a “translational, patient-centered effort to address the need for effective, non-addictive, and personalized therapies for chronic low back pain.” Its research focus includes Phase 2 clinical trials focused on developing and delivering an integrated model of chronic lower back pain. to organize and upload trial data from three related studies to Vivli: one umbrella project—REACH, the chronic low back pain research center—and two observational cohorts under that umbrella, called COMEBACK and Back Home. Kaitlin Yee coordinated the process to submit and share data for the UCSF research team via Vivli and provided feedback on the data sharing process.
