Chronic Low Back Pain and Meditation
October 4, 2023 updated by: Fadel Zeidan, University of California, San Diego
The Role of Endogenous Opioids in Mindfulness-based Chronic Pain Relief
The purpose of this research study is to see if and how mindfulness meditation affects pain.
Specifically, we are interested in assessing if mindfulness is associated with the release of naturally occurring opiates in the body, in response to intravenous (IV) administration of the opioid antagonist naloxone during a chronic low back pain provoking procedure.

Detailed Description
The purpose of this psychophysical and pharmacologic study is to determine if meditation induced pain relief is mediated by endogenous opioids in response to intravenous (IV) administration of the opioid antagonist naloxone during a pain evoking straight leg raise test in response to double-blind intravenous administration (IV) of naloxone/placebo-saline.
The aim of this study is to determine if mindfulness-based analgesia is associated with the release of endogenous opioids.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Meditation
Subjects will participate in four sessions (20 min/session) of mindfulness training.
Participants will be taught that perceived sensory events are "momentary" and "fleeting" and require no further evaluation.
|
A well-validated brief meditation-based mental training regimen [four sessions; 20 min/session] is used to teach patients to independently practice closing their eyes and take a deep breath every few minutes.
Other Names:
A 0.15 mg/kg bolus dose of naloxone (Naloxone hydrochloride, Amphastar Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Rancho Cucamonga, California) in 25ml normal saline will be administered over 10 minutes.
The investigators also will administer a supplementary IV infusion dose of 0.1mg/kg/hour naloxone immediately after bolus infusion will cease till the end of the experiment.
A 0.15 mg/kg bolus dose of saline in 25ml normal saline will be administered over 10 minutes.
The investigators also will administer a supplementary IV infusion dose of 0.1mg/kg/hour saline immediately after bolus infusion will cease till the end of the experiment.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pain Ratings
Time Frame: Pain ratings were collected while lying supine and in response to the straight leg raise test. Collected twice, once in the first half and one in the second half of the baseline, saline infusion and naloxone infusion sessions. Up to 8 weeks total.
|
Numerical pain ratings (NRS) will be assessed while lying on the back and in response to the straight leg raise test (SLR).
Pain ratings will be collected during SLR 1 and SLR 2 in the baseline, saline and naloxone sessions, respectively.
The 11 point scan will include a minimum rating of "0" which is characterized as "no pain" whereas the maximum ("10") is labeled as "most intense imaginable"."
Higher numbers correspond to higher pain.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pain Catastrophizing Scale
Time Frame: The Pain Catastrophizing Scale was administered at the baseline, post-intervention session 6 and session 7. Outcome measurements will compare change in Pain Catastrophizing Scale from baseline to session 7.
|
This is a 13-item questionnaire with 3 subscales assessing rumination, magnification, and helplessness in patients.
A numeric value between 0 (not at all) and 4 (all the time) is provided in response to each statement.
Scores on this assessment range from 0 to 52, with higher values reflecting more salient impacts of pain on one's day to day experience.
The total range is from 0 - 52.
|
The Pain Catastrophizing Scale was administered at the baseline, post-intervention session 6 and session 7. Outcome measurements will compare change in Pain Catastrophizing Scale from baseline to session 7.
|
The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ)
Time Frame: The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire was administered at the baseline, post-intervention session 6 and session 7. Outcome measurements will compare RMDQ from baseline to session 7.
|
The Roland-Morris Questionnaire (RMDQ) is a self-administered disability measure in which greater levels of disability are reflected by higher numbers on a 24-point scale.
The RMDQ has been shown to yield reliable measurements, which are valid for inferring the level of disability, and to be sensitive to change over time for groups of patients with low back pain.
Higher scores indicate greater disability.
Total RMDQ scores are used before and after each intervention by group.
The range of scores is from 0 - 24.
|
The Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire was administered at the baseline, post-intervention session 6 and session 7. Outcome measurements will compare RMDQ from baseline to session 7.
|
Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)
Time Frame: Administered at the baseline, post-intervention session 6 and post-intervention session 7. Outcome measurements will compare in BPI severity and interference from baseline to session 7.
|
Pain severity and interference: impact of pain on daily function, location of pain, pain medications and amount of pain relief in the past 24 hours or the past week.
Higher scores indicate higher chronic pain.
BPI severity and interference scales are used and collected before and after each intervention.
Higher BPI severity indicate higher chronic pain severity.
Higher BPI interference scores indicate higher chronic pain interference.The scoring scale for severity and interference range from 0 - 10, respectively.
|
Administered at the baseline, post-intervention session 6 and post-intervention session 7. Outcome measurements will compare in BPI severity and interference from baseline to session 7.

SF-12 Health Survey (SF-12) Physical Functioning
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks. Administered at visit 1, 6 and 7. Outcome measurements will compare SF-12 health survey from baseline to session 7.
|
This is a 12-item version of the SF-12 item Health Survey designed to assess general mental and physical functioning, and overall health-related quality of life.
We used the physical functioning SF-12 scale and collected this information before and after each intervention and by group.
The total range of scores is from 0 - 100.
The minimum total score is 0 and the maximum score is 100.
Higher scores indicate better functioning.
