Pain Neuroscience Education and Physical Exercise Program in Fibromyalgia
Effectiveness of a Group Intervention Through Education in Pain Neurophysiology and Exercise in Women With Fibromyalgia: a Quasi-experimental Study in Primary Care
Study Overview

Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of a PNE and PE in patients with fibromyalgia (FM).
Design: Quasi-experimental, controlled, non-randomized study, in Primary Care facilities.
Intervention: 6 weekly sessions (2 hours each), and a reminder session one month later.
Main measurements: Compliance with FM criteria, assessed using the Widespread Pain Index (WPI) and the Severity of Symptoms (SS) questionnaires, impact of FM in daily life (Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire: FIQ) and quality of live. Assessments are made at baseline, one month following the 6th session, and during the 6- and 12-month follow-up.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention
Pain neuroscience education (Health education) and Physical exercise program: 6 weekly sessions (2 hours each), and a reminder session one month later
|
Patients assigned to the experimental group perform a PNE program consisting of seven sessions, with therapeutic PE.
PNE is a health education intervention aims to provide up-to-date information on neuroscience advances in the field of chronic pain.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Fulfillment of diagnostic criteria for fibromyalgia
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
2010 American College of Rheumatology Diagnostic Criteria for fibromyalgia: dichotomous variable (complies or does not comply). A patient satisfies diagnostic criteria for fibromyalgia if the following 3 conditions are met:
WPI: number of areas in which the patient has had pain over the last week (score between 0 and 19), with 0 = fully active and 5 = dead). SS: sum of the severity of 3 symptoms (fatigue, waking unrefreshed, cognitive symptoms) plus the extent (severity) of somatic symptoms in general (final score between 0 and 12: higher scores mean a worse outcome) |
Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |

---|---|---|
Impact of fibromyalgia on daily life
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Evaluation of physical functionality, global impact and severity of symptoms: Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), which ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Catastrophism
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Pain-related catastrophizing behaviours and cognitions of individuals: Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), which ranges from 0 to 52, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Anxiety
Time Frame: Change in score from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Anxiety sub-scale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD), which ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change in score from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Depression
Time Frame: Change in score of both subscales from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Depression sub-scale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD), which ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change in score of both subscales from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Pain intensity
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Pain intensity sub-scale of the Brief Pain Questionnaire (BPI), which ranges between 0-40, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Impact of pain in person's daily performance
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Pain impact sub-scale of the Brief Pain Questionnaire (BPI), which ranges between 0-70, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Functional capacity
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
|
Difficulty in performing activities of daily living: Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), which ranges from 0 to 60, with higher scores indicating worse outcome
|
Change from baseline to 12 months follow-up
