In this Friday’s Rethinking Clinical Trials Grand Rounds, Jennifer Kawi, Hulin Wu, and Jane Bolin will present “Key Insights From the UG3, Personalized Auricular Point Acupressure for Chronic Pain Self-Management in Rural Populations (APA-SM), and the Path Forward for the UH3.”
The Grand Rounds session will be held on Friday, April 24, 2026, at 1:00 pm eastern.
APA-SM, an NIH Collaboratory Trial, is testing a 4-week auricular point acupressure intervention for self-management of chronic pain in rural communities in South Carolina and Texas. The study will also include implementation outcomes, a cost-effectiveness analysis, and an evaluation of predictive factors for treatment response.
Kawi is the Lee and Joseph Jamail Distinguished Professor in the Cizik School of Nursing at UTHealth Houston. Wu is the Betty Wheless Trotter Professor in the School of Public Health at UTHealth Houston. Bolin is a Regents Professor Emeritus at the Texas A&M School of Nursing.
