Abstract
Objective Prehabilitation encompasses preparatory clinical intervention(s) delivered during the period between diagnosis and treatment commencement. Despite widespread successful usage preoperatively, psychological prehabilitation is neglected in outpatient chronic pain management. Although pain management waitlists are associated with treatment attrition and psychological and physical decline, this time window is underutilised in preventing escalation. Waitlists present an under-explored opportunity to 'prehabilitate' patients waiting for treatment. This topical review aimed to: (1) examine the effectiveness of psychological prehabilitation for pain services; (2) evaluate the psychological and physical decline associated with waiting for pain management; (3) highlight key psychological prehabilitative targets for increasing treatment engagement; (4) promote pain management psychological prehabilitation within personalised pain medicine, building recommendations for future interventions. Methods Studies regarding the impact of waitlists and prehabilitation for chronic pain were reviewed. Results Findings demonstrated that the psychological constructs of patient expectations, health locus of control, self-efficacy and pain catastrophizing dynamically influence attrition, treatment engagement and outcomes while waiting. These constructs are amenable to change, emphasising their potential utility within a targeted waitlist intervention. Conclusions Prehabilitating chronic pain patients towards treatment engagement could circumvent cycles of failed treatment seeking, preventing psychological and physical decline, and reducing healthcare utilisation. Utilising the waitlist to identify psychosocial risk factors (external health locus of control, low self-efficacy and high pain catastrophizing) would identify who requires additional support to prevent increased risk of treatment failure, enhancing personalised care before prescribed treatment is accessed. This review cements the urgent need for pain services to engage proactively with prehabilitation innovation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To understand experiences accessing care within team-based primary care models among adults with chronic low back pain (LBP). MATERIALS & METHODS We conducted an interpretive description qualitative study and collected data using one-to-one semi-structured interviews. Participants were recruited from publicly funded, team-based primary care models in Ontario, Canada. RESULTS We completed interviews with 16 adults with chronic LBP (9 women; median age of 66). Participants expressed a desire to access care from team-based models of primary care in hopes of alleviating pain and its impacts on daily life. Due to no direct out-of-pocket costs, co-location of healthcare providers, and the use of technology and virtual care, participants described an ease of accessing interprofessional care within team-based primary care models. Finally, participants described experiences with and expectations for timely access to care, being heard and understood by healthcare providers, and receiving coordinated care by an interprofessional team. CONCLUSIONS Adults living with chronic LBP described overall positive experiences and specific expectations when accessing care within team-based models of primary care, whereby they experienced an ease of accessing interprofessional care with the hope of alleviating pain and its impacts. Results may be transferable to other chronic pain conditions and health system contexts.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Due to the complex nature of chronic pain, especially in older adults, a biopsychosocial approach is more effective than an isolated approach for its management. Furthermore, when patients are actively engaged in their pain management, they are more likely to be successful than relying totally on others. OBJECTIVE To analyze the self-management strategies currently used by older adults with chronic pain. METHOD An integrative review was conducted through seven online databases, searching for scientific studies on this topic published in the last 10 years. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION Fifty-eight studies were included in the final sample. Research on chronic pain self-management for older adults has increased in recent years. Although a diversity of chronic physical painful conditions are being investigated, many conditions are still under-investigated. Online and in-person strategies are currently adopted, demonstrating similar results. Positive results are evidenced by strategies including health promotion, mind control, social participation and take-action fields. Major results come from a combination of strategies focusing on biopsychosocial aspects of pain management. Results include not only the reduction of pain itself, but increased self-efficacy, adoption of health behaviors and improvement of functionality, among others, i.e., improved QoL, despite pain.

Abstract
Chronic pain is a public health problem suffered by 20% of the world's population. Pharmacological approaches are insufficient, so a multi-therapeutic approach that also includes non-pharmacological therapies (psychological therapies, meditation, physical exercise, healthy habits, etc.) is proposed. The aim of this review was to review the existing scientific evidence on the effect of multicomponent programs with non-pharmacological therapies in people with chronic non-oncologic pain. To this end, a search for scientific articles was carried out in three databases (PubMed, Web of Science and PsycINFO) and 17 articles were selected, following the PRISMA recommendations. The patients who participated in these programs were mostly women, aged 18 to 80years, working or on sick leave due to pain, with secondary education or less and married. The most frequent pain was musculoskeletal, mainly low back pain. All the articles studied the effectiveness of two or more therapies, highlighting psychological therapies, physical exercise and education. Positive results were obtained in the reduction of different variables such as pain, pain catastrophizing, anxiety and depression, in addition to improving functionality and quality of life. It has also been shown that patients' prior expectations regarding the intervention influence its effectiveness. Although throughout the review there was great heterogeneity in the interventions, in the evaluation methods and in the results themselves, it can be concluded that multicomponent programs show positive results in the management of chronic pain, and should therefore be incorporated as a routine therapeutic treatment.

FRONTIERS IN REHABILITATION SCIENCES 2024; 5:1307536. [PMID: 38660395 PMCID: PMC11041397 DOI: 10.3389/fresc.2024.1307536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
Introduction Rehabilitation is essential to foster healthy ageing. Older adults have unique rehabilitation needs due to a higher prevalence of non-communicable diseases, higher susceptibility to infectious diseases, injuries, and mental health conditions. However, there is limited understanding of how rehabilitation is delivered to older adults. To address this gap, we conducted a scoping review to describe rehabilitation delivery models used to optimise older adults' functioning/functional ability and foster healthy ageing. Methods We searched Medline and Embase (January 2015 to May 2022) for primary studies published in English describing approaches to provide rehabilitation to older adults. Three authors screened records for eligibility and extracted data independently and in duplicate. Data synthesis included descriptive quantitative analysis of study and rehabilitation provision characteristics, and qualitative analysis to identify rehabilitation delivery models. Results Out of 6,933 identified records, 585 articles were assessed for eligibility, and 283 studies with 69,257 participants were included. We identified six rehabilitation delivery models: outpatient (24%), telerehabilitation (22%), home (18.5%), community (16.3%), inpatient (14.6%), and eldercare (4.7%). These models often involved multidisciplinary teams (31.5%) and follow integrated care principles (30.4%). Most studies used a disease-centred approach (59.0%), while studies addressing multimorbidity (6.0%) and prevalent health problems of older adults, such as pain, low hearing, and vision, or incontinence were scarce. The most frequently provided interventions were therapeutic exercises (54.1%), self-management education (40.1%), and assessment of person-centred goals (40%). Other interventions, such as assistive technology (8.1%) and environmental adaptations (7.4%) were infrequent. Conclusions Focusing on primary studies, this scoping review provides an overview of rehabilitation delivery models that are used to foster healthy ageing and highlights research gaps that require further attention, including a lack of systematic assessment of functioning/functional ability, a predominance of disease-centred rehabilitation, and a scarcity of programmes addressing prevalent issues like pain, hearing/vision loss, fall prevention, incontinence, and sexual dysfunctions. Our research can facilitate evidence-based decision-making and inspire further research and innovation in rehabilitation and healthy ageing. Limitations of our study include reliance on published research to infer practice and not assessing model effectiveness. Future research in the field is needed to expand and validate our findings.

The Finnish version of the revised Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire. Physiother Theory Pract 2024; 40:828-842. [PMID: 36475565 DOI: 10.1080/09593985.2022.2154626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 11/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the concept of pain and its underlying biological mechanisms is an essential part of physiotherapists' professional knowledge. OBJECTIVES The first aim of the study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the revised Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire into Finnish (RNPQ-FI) and to evaluate its reliability (internal consistency and test-retest reliability) in a sample of Finnish physiotherapists and physiotherapy students. The second aim was to compare the knowledge of pain neurophysiology between these two groups. METHODS Translation and cross-cultural adaptation followed the COSMIN Study Design checklist. Participants (202 physiotherapists and 97 physiotherapy students) completed an online survey containing RNPQ-FI. Internal consistency was assessed with Cronbach's alpha and test-retest reliability using Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC3,1). RESULTS Cronbach's alpha was 0.44 and ICC was 0.70 (p < .001). The mean percentage of correct responses was 61.4% for physiotherapists and 62.1% for students. Forty-seven percent of the physiotherapists and 35.1% of the students reported difficulties in understanding the items. A higher amount of pain education was associated with higher RNPQ-FI scores. CONCLUSIONS The RNPQ-FI showed low internal consistency and moderate test-retest reliability among Finnish physiotherapists and physiotherapy students. Physiotherapists and students had equal amount of pain neurophysiology knowledge. Pain education is encouraged.

Abstract
Pain is a distressing and universal experience, yet everyone's pain experience is influenced by a complex array of biological, psychological, and social factors. For people with Parkinson's disease (PwP), these biopsychosocial factors include neurodegeneration and the psychological and social factors that accompany living with a chronic, neurodegenerative condition in addition to the factors experienced by those in the general population (e.g., living with co-morbidities such as osteoarthritis). The way these factors influence each individual is likely to determine which pain management strategies are optimal for them. This review first describes pain and the biopsychosocial model of pain. It explores how pain is classified in Parkinson's disease (PD) and describes the three main types of pain: nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain. This background provides context for a discussion of non-pharmacological pain management strategies that may aid in the management of pain in PwP; exercise, psychological strategies, acupuncture and massage. While there is little PD-specific research to inform the non-pharmacological management of pain, findings from current PD research are combined with that from chronic pain research to present recommendations for clinical practice. Recommendations include assessment that incorporates potential biopsychosocial contributors to pain that will then guide a holistic, multi-modal approach to management. As exercise provides overall benefits for PwP, those with chronic pain should be carefully monitored with exercise prescribed and adjusted accordingly. Research is needed to develop and evaluate multi-modal approaches to pain management that are delivered in a biopsychosocial framework.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and psychometrically test the Self-Efficacy and Performance in Self-Management Support instrument for physiotherapists (SEPSS-PT), based on the SEPSS-36, the corresponding instrument for nurses. DESIGN Instrument development including content validation and psychometric evaluation (construct validity, factor structure, and reliability). SETTING Data were collected from literature, expertmeetings, and online questionnaire PARTICIPANTS: Next to a comprehensive literature study, experts (self-management experts (n=2); physiotherapists (n=10); patients (n=6)) and physiotherapists and physiotherapy students (n=334), participated in different stages of the study. INTERVENTIONS Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Not applicable. A literature study (n=42 reviews) and consultations with physiotherapists and patients identified the specific content for physiotherapy. The Five-A's model and overarching competencies of "supportive partnership attitude", were used to structure the items. Psychometric evaluation of the draft questionnaire (40 items) was tested in a sample of 334 physiotherapists and physiotherapy students from the Netherlands, of whom 33 filled out the questionnaire twice to establish the test-retest reliability. RESULTS Confirmatory factor analyses revealed satisfactory fit indices for both the 6-factor model and hierarchical model, with best fit for the 6-factor model. The questionnaire discriminated between physiotherapists and physiotherapy students, and between physiotherapists who did or did not consider self-management support important. The overall internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) was high, both for the self-efficacy and the performance items. In most of the subscales, test-retest intra-class correlation coefficients for both overall self-efficacy and performance were good, but in 3 subscales insufficient for performance. CONCLUSION The SEPSS-PT questionnaire is a 40-item, Likert-scaled instrument with good content and construct validity, good internal consistency and reliability, and sufficient test-retest reliability. Future research in a larger and more diverse sample could confirm stability and discriminating power.

Abstract
Introduction With demographic changes, prioritizing effective care for geriatric patients to maintain functionality, independence, and quality of life is crucial. Well-developed self-management or self-care abilities, which can be maintained and improved through interventions, are of the utmost importance. To implement these interventions tailored and effectively, a thorough assessment of the individual's self-management and self-care abilities is required. Objective This scoping review aimed to identify self-management and self-care instruments suitable for geriatric patients, their underlying theories and definitions of self-management and self-care, and their similarities and differences in item content. Methods A systematic search of the PubMed and CINAHL databases was conducted to identify retrievable full-text articles published in English in the medical and nursing fields since the 1970s, which were validated on a sample with an average age of at least 70 years, used generic rather than disease-specific items, and addressed the broad range of self-management and self-care abilities. Results Of the 20 included articles, six instruments were identified that were based on different theories and offered varying definitions of self-management or self-care. Despite these differences, all emphasize empowered individuals taking an active role in their care. Most address actual behavior and abilities referring to lifestyle factors and (anticipated) adjustment behavior. However, crucial aspects, such as psychological factors, (instrumental) activities of daily living, and social environment are not fully addressed in these instruments, nor are the types of execution to which the items refer, such as wants, feelings, confidence, or attitudes. Conclusion To fully understand how geriatric patients implement daily self-management or self-care, a combination of instruments covering the important factors of self-management and self-care and addressing multiple types of item execution, such as behaviors, abilities, wants, or attitudes, is recommended. This review provides the first comprehensive overview of self-management and self-care instruments suitable for geriatric patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A scoping review will be undertaken to examine and map the available evidence that has been produced in relation to pain management in Parkinson's, with a focus on behavioural interventions, resources and/or how professionals support people with Parkinson's self-management of pain. METHODS This review will be based on the methodological framework given by Arksey and O'Malley's (2005), including enhancements by Levac et al., Peters et al. and the Joanna Briggs Institute. We will include studies from PubMed, SCOPUS, CINAHL, MEDLINE Web of Science, APA PsycINFO and ASSIA from January, 2010 onwards. Both quantitative and qualitative data will be analysed separately to identify the characteristics of support for pain management available, orientation of the approach and any identifiable behaviour change components and their outcomes. The COM-B behaviour change model and Theoretical Domains Framework will provide a theoretical framework for synthesising evidence in this review. CONCLUSION This scoping review will help to explore studies focusing on the evidence supporting a range of interventions relating to the management of pain experienced by people living with Parkinson's. The focus will be on describing what is available to support self-management, identify what behaviour change components have been used and their effectiveness, identify barriers and enablers to pain management and explore gaps in current provision of pain management. This review will identify implications and priorities for the follow-up phases to the larger 'Pain in Parkinson's' Project which is designed to support clinicians and individuals living with Parkinson's.

[PMID: 37516218 DOI: 10.1016/j.neubiorev.2023.105328] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
The aim was to examine the moderator effect of duration of PNE (total minutes) on changes in psychosocial variables after treatment in people with chronic musculoskeletal pain. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and CINHAL databases were systematically searched from inception to 6 February 2023. A mixed-effects meta-regression was performed to determine the moderator effect of PNE duration. Twenty-three studies involving 2352 patients were included. Meta-analysis revealed a statistically significant effect in favour of PNE on pain neurophysiology knowledge, anxiety symptoms, catastrophizing and kinesiophobia. The total duration of PNE ranged from 40 to 720 min. A linear relationship was observed between longer duration of PNE (total minutes) and changes of psychosocial variables. In addition, a dose of 100, 200 and 400 min of PNE was estimated to exceed the minimum clinically important difference described in the literature for kinesiophobia (mean difference = -8.53 points), anxiety symptoms (mean difference = -1.88 points) and catastrophizing (mean difference = -7.17 points). Clinicians should provide a more tailored PNE to address psychosocial variables.

Beliefs and expectations of patients with fibromyalgia about telerehabilitation during Covid-19 pandemic: A qualitative study. Musculoskelet Sci Pract 2023; 67:102852. [PMID: 37639980 DOI: 10.1016/j.msksp.2023.102852] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Telerehabilitation as an alternative to physiotherapeutic care has been increasingly implemented in diverse populations. However, this mode of service can evoke beliefs and expectations in patients with fibromyalgia, depending on sociocultural and clinical context, that can cause poor adaptation and dropout from treatment. OBJECTIVE To explore beliefs and expectations of individuals with fibromyalgia about physical exercises delivered through telerehabilitation. METHODS Thirty individual semi-structured interviews were conducted via videoconference with women with fibromyalgia recruited during COVID-19 pandemic through intentional sampling. These interviews were guided by four questions addressing the beliefs and expectations about telerehabilitation. The interviews were recorded after consent and transcribed using the MAXQDA® software. The inductive approach was performed in which raw data were coded into categories and subcategories. RESULTS Participants expect to benefit from telerehabilitation due to flexible hours, no need of travel, socialization, and lower risk of contamination. However, they believe they have difficulties related to the physical absence of the therapist, complexity of the exercises, internet connection problems, adaptation to the domestic routine and availability of schedules. CONCLUSION Women with fibromyalgia showed positive expectations about telerehabilitation, relating better socialization with other individuals diagnosed with fibromyalgia, home care with flexible schedule and, to provide needed service to underserved. However, they listed barriers such as the physical absence of the therapist and instability of the internet connection and, the FM symptoms themselves.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The prevalence of chronic pain in Spain is 17%, which causes suffering and significant loss of quality of life. Therapies should not focus only on pain reduction, to improve function and quality of life are necessary. Currently, it is committed to combining drugs and other therapies such as relaxation, meditation, cognitive behavioral therapy, targeted exercises, healthy lifestyles and techniques to increase self-esteem and motivation for change. These therapies can be used as part of a multimodal approach, forming part of multicomponent programs or workshops. In this paper we proposed to evaluate the effectiveness of a workshop developed from the Hospital San Juan de Dios del Ajarafe, that integrated different non-pharmacological therapies in the control of chronic non-oncologic pain and to analyze patients' perceptions of the techniques applied and how they affected pain and lifestyles. METHODS An intragroup before-after study (beginning-end of the workshop) was carried out, comparing pain, well-being, drug use, quality of life, and self-esteem. Surveys were conducted to deepen more qualitative aspects and identify improvements. The workshop consisted of psychoeducational action and training for the mental control of pain and emotions, based on the active participation of the patient in the management of his disease, promoting self-care and self-esteem, and aiming to improve well-being and quality of life. It consisted of 5 sessions of 3 hours (1 per week); of a group, interactive and practical nature. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS vs.27.0. To compare related measures (before-after) we used Student's T tests for paired samples and Wilcoxon's test and to compare independent groups, Student's T and Mann Whitney's U; for the qualitative variables, we used Chi-Square and Fisher's test. RESULTS Four workshops were evaluated in which 63 patients participated, with a mean age of 57.6 (SD:11.37) years, 60 (95.2%) of them were women. At the end of the workshop pain decreased 1.5 median (-2.0-0) and well-being increased 2.0 (0-2.0); quality of life increased a median of 0.121 (SD: 0.209), health status 16.8 (23.78) and self-esteem 2.74 (4.73); [p<0.001]. The best valued techniques were meditations, mainly mental analgesia, affirmations in the mirror and self-esteem techniques. CONCLUSIONS Overall satisfaction with the workshop is 9.8 out of 10. There is a pain control and improvement in quality of life, self-perception of health status, well-being and self-esteem.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis (TMO) is one of the most prevalent and painful forms of hand osteoarthritis. PURPOSE This study aimed at (1) describing the TMO pain experience, (2) identifying biopsychosocial factors associated with pain intensity and disability, and 3) documenting the use of non-surgical management modalities. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional. METHODS Participants who presented for care for TMO were recruited from 15 healthcare institutions. They completed a questionnaire addressing sociodemographic, pain, disability, psychological well-being, quality of life (QoL), productivity, and treatment modalities employed. Multivariable regression analyses identified biopsychosocial factors associated with pain intensity and magnitude of disability. RESULTS Among our 228 participants aged 62.6 years, 78.1% were women. More than 80% of the participants reported average pain of moderate to severe intensity in the last 7 days. Nearly 30 % of them scored clinically significant levels of anxiodepressive symptoms. The participants' norm-based physical QoL score on the SF-12v2 was 41/100. Among the 79 employed respondents, 13 reported having missed complete or part of workdays in the previous month and 18 reported being at risk of losing their job due to TMO. Factors independently associated with more intense pain included higher pain frequency and greater disability, accounting for 59.0% of the variance. The mean DASH score was 46.1 of 100, and the factors associated with greater magnitude of disability were higher pain intensity, greater levels of depression, female sex, and lower level of education, explaining 60.1% of the variance. Acetaminophen, oral non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs, cortisone injections, orthoses, hand massage/exercises, and heat/cold application were the most frequently employed modalities. Most participants never used assistive devices, ergonomic techniques, and psychosocial services. CONCLUSIONS Patients with TMO can experience severe pain, disability, disturbed emotional well-being, limited QoL and reduced productivity. As disability is associated with TMO pain, and depressive symptoms with disability, reducing such modifiable factors should be one of the clinicians' priorities.

Abstract
Osteosarcopenia (OSP) is a geriatric syndrome characterized by the coexistence of osteoporosis and sarcopenia and associated with an increased risk of fragility fractures, disability, and mortality. For patients with this syndrome, musculoskeletal pain represents the most significant challenge since, in addition to limiting the individual's functionality and promoting disability, it has a huge psychological burden involving anxiety, depression, and social withdrawal. Unfortunately, the molecular mechanisms involved in the development and persistence of pain in OSP have not yet been fully elucidated, although immune cells are known to play a key role in these processes. Indeed, they release several molecules that promote persistent inflammation and nociceptive stimulation, resulting in the gating of ion channels responsible for the generation and propagation of the noxious stimulus. The adoption of countermeasures to counteract the OSP progression and reduce the algic component appears to be necessary, providing patients with a better quality of life and greater adherence to treatment. In addition, the development of multimodal therapies, based on an interdisciplinary approach, appears to be crucial, combining the use of anti-osteoporotic drugs with an educational programme, regular physical activity, and proper nutrition to eliminate risk factors. Based on this evidence, we conducted a narrative review using the PubMed and Google Scholar search engines to summarize the current knowledge on the molecular mechanisms involved in the pain development in OSP and the potential countermeasures to be taken. The lack of studies addressing this topic highlights the need to conduct new research into the resolution of an ever-expanding social problem.

Effect of integrated exercise therapy and psychosocial interventions on self-efficacy in patients with chronic low back pain: A systematic review. J Psychosom Res 2023; 165:111126. [PMID: 36610335 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychores.2022.111126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2022] [Revised: 11/17/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigate if integrated exercise and psychosocial (EP) interventions effect self-efficacy to manage pain and self-efficacy for physical functioning compared to alternate interventions, usual care, waitlists and attention controls for individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP). METHODS MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, PsychINFO, PEDro, and Cochrane Library were searched. Included randomized controlled trials utilized an EP intervention for CLBP and measured self-efficacy. Independent reviewers screened abstracts, reviewed full-texts, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. GRADE, synthesis without meta-analysis, and ranges of effects (Hedges' g) were used. RESULTS 2207 Participants were included (22-studies). EP interventions positively effected self-efficacy to manage pain short-term compared to usual care (range of effects: -0.02, 0.94) and controls (range of effects: 0.69, 0.80) and intermediately compared to usual care (range of effects: 0.11, 0.29); however, no differences were found when compared to alternate interventions. EP interventions positively effected self-efficacy for physical functioning short-term compared to alternate interventions (range of effects: 0.57, 0.71), usual care (range of effects: -0.15, 0.94), and controls (range of effects: 0.31, 0.56), and intermediately compared to alternate interventions (1-study, effect: 0.57) and controls (1-study, effect: 0.56). Conclusions were limited by low to very low-quality-evidence often from risk of bias, imprecision, and clinical/statistical heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS EP interventions may be more effective short-term for self-efficacy to manage pain than usual care and waitlists, but not alternate interventions. EP interventions may be effective for self-efficacy for physical functioning at short- and intermediate-term compared to alternate interventions, usual care, waitlist and attention controls. Considerations for future research include methods for blinding and measurement of self-efficacy for physical functioning.

Abstract
Previously promising short-term H-Wave® device stimulation (HWDS) outcomes prompted this retrospective cohort study of the longer-term effects on legacy workers' compensation chronic pain claimants. A detailed chart-review of 157 consecutive claimants undergoing a 30-day HWDS trial (single pain management practice) from February 2018 to November 2019 compiled data on pain, restoration of function, quality of life (QoL), and polypharmacy reduction into a summary spreadsheet for an independent statistical analysis. Non-beneficial trials in 64 (40.8%) ended HWDS use, while 19 (12.1%) trial success charts lacked adequate data for assessing critical outcomes. Of the 74 final treatment study group charts, missing data points were removed for a statistical analysis. Pain chronicity was 7.8 years with 21.6 ± 12.2 months mean follow-up. Mean pain reduction was 35%, with 89% reporting functional improvement. Opioid consumption decreased in 48.8% of users and 41.5% completely stopped; polypharmacy decreased in 36.8% and 24.4% stopped. Zero adverse events were reported and those who still worked usually continued working. An overall positive experience occurred in 66.2% (p < 0.0001), while longer chronicity portended the risk of trial or treatment failure. Positive outcomes in reducing pain, opioid/polypharmacy, and anxiety/depression, while improving function/QoL, occurred in these challenging chronic pain injury claimants. Level of evidence: III.

Abstract
Self-management is critical for the care of endometriosis. Females with endometriosis frequently use self-management strategies to manage associated symptoms; however, the efficacy of such strategies is unknown. The aim of this review was to systematically appraise the evidence concerning efficacy of self-management strategies for endometriosis symptoms. Electronic databases, including Medline, Embase, Emcare, Web of Science Core Collection, Scopus, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, were searched from inception to March 2021. We included peer-reviewed experimental studies published in English evaluating the efficacy of self-management strategies in human females laparoscopically diagnosed with endometriosis. Studies underwent screening, data extraction, and risk of bias appraisal (randomised studies: Risk of Bias 2 tool; non-randomised studies: Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies - of Interventions tool). Of the fifteen studies included, 10 evaluated dietary supplements, three evaluated dietary modifications, one evaluated over-the-counter medication, and one evaluated exercise. Most studies had a high-critical risk of bias. Many self-management strategies were not more effective at reducing endometriosis symptoms compared to placebo or hormonal therapies. Where studies suggest efficacy for self-management strategies, no recommendations can be made due to the poor quality and heterogeneity of evidence. High-quality empirical evidence is required to investigate the efficacy of self-management strategies for females with endometriosis.

Abstract
Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent musculoskeletal condition, commonly resulting in pain and disability. However, pain and disability in this population are poorly related with the degree of structural joint damage. Underlying pain mechanisms, including activity-related pain and sensitization assessed via Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST), may better predict pain and functional outcomes of those with knee OA. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore whether activity-related pain and sensitization assessed via QST predict future pain, function, fatigue, physical performance and quality of life outcomes in those living in the community with knee OA. Eighty-six participants with knee OA were recruited in Dunedin, New Zealand. Those eligible to participate underwent baseline testing including QST as well as measures of activity-related pain including Movement-evoked Pain (MEP) and Sensitivity to Physical Activity (SPA). Outcome measures exploring pain, function, fatigue and quality of life outcomes were collected at baseline, and two follow-up periods (two and nine weeks). Univariable linear regression models were developed followed by multivariable linear regression models for each prognostic marker adjusting for age, gender, BMI, OA duration, baseline pain intensity and socioeconomic status. Activity-related measures of pain, including MEP and SPA, demonstrated predictive associations with pain and functional outcomes prospectively in those with knee OA. Therefore, those demonstrating activity-related pain are at future risk of greater pain, disability and reduced quality of life. Larger, externally validated longitudinal studies are required which include individuals with more severe knee OA.

Amaral S, Pássaro AC, Casarotto RA. Effect of the association of continuous shortwave diathermy and Pilates-based exercises on pain, depression, and anxiety in chronic non-specific low back pain: a randomized clinical trial. Braz J Med Biol Res 2023; 56:e12338. [PMID: 36946839 PMCID: PMC10026619 DOI: 10.1590/1414-431x2023e12338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Chronic nonspecific low back pain (CNLBP) is the most common musculoskeletal condition, which can be influenced by nociceptive, psychosocial, cognitive, and affective aspects, causing vulnerabilities and impairing the individual's ability to manage pain. The association of continuous shortwave diathermy (CSWD) with Pilates-based exercises may contribute to reduce pain, depression, and anxiety in patients with CNLBP. A single-blind randomized clinical trial was performed in which 36 patients with CNLBP were divided into a control group that received placebo CSWD and an intervention group that received active CSWD. Both groups received 12 sessions of Pilates-based exercises. Pain, depression, and anxiety variables were evaluated using the McGill questionnaire, the Beck Depression Inventory, and the Visual Analog Anxiety Scale. Assessments were performed at baseline, after three and six weeks of treatment, and at the three-month follow-up. The Shapiro-Wilk test, Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-squared test, and repeated measures ANOVA, with α=0.05, were used to compare the outcomes, and indicated that active CSWD did not present additional improvement in the assessed variables in CNLBP patients compared to the placebo group. Both groups improved pain and depression at follow-up and reduced anxiety only during Pilates-based exercises. Therefore, only Pilates-based exercises seemed sufficient to manage patients with CNLBP.

Are Improvements in Pain Neurophysiology Knowledge Following Pain Science Education Associated With Improved Outcomes in People With Chronic Pain?: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Clin J Pain 2023; 39:41-52. [PMID: 36524771 DOI: 10.1097/ajp.0000000000001086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the association between changes in patients' pain knowledge after pain science education (PSE) with treatment outcomes in people with chronic pain. METHODS Six electronic databases and 2 clinical trial registries were searched from inception to September 15, 2021 for studies where participants received PSE and had their pain knowledge and clinical outcomes assessed before and after PSE. Meta-analyses were performed for pain intensity, kinesiophobia, and pain catastrophizing. Physical function and quality of life outcomes were synthesized narratively. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane tool for nonrandomized studies and the quality of evidence was assessed using GRADE. RESULTS Fourteen studies (n=1500 participants) were included. Meta-analyses revealed no significant associations between short-term (<12 wk) changes in pain neurophysiology knowledge with changes in pain intensity (n=1075, r=-0.01, 95% CI =-0.14 to 0.13, very low certainty), kinesiophobia (n=152, r=0.02, 95% CI =-0.27 to 0.24, very low certainty) and pain catastrophizing (n=976, r=-0.03, 95% CI=-0.18 to 0.11, low certainty). No significant associations were found between short-term changes in pain neurophysiology knowledge and physical function or quality of life either. DISCUSSION These findings do not support a short-term association between improvements in pain neurophysiology knowledge and better treatment outcomes in people with chronic pain. Increased understanding of how PSE works, as well as better ways to measure it, may help clinicians deliver more targeted education to help patients reconceptualize pain and promote engagement in active treatment strategies (eg, exercise).

"FastSchool": A single session of an interprofessional pain management program for chronic pain patients inspired by cognitive behavioral therapy. PATIENT EDUCATION AND COUNSELING 2022; 105:3509-3514.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Multidisciplinary approaches to treating chronic pain have been proven effective. Currently, chronic pain patients face lengthy waitlists in pain medicine departments. To overcome this problem, we developed the "FastSchool" program to educate patients about pain management and treatment. In this study, we evaluated the benefit of a "FastSchool" session on pain and catastrophizing in chronic pain patients. METHODS Included patients had chronic non-cancer pain, no more than 2 visits to a pain medicine department. Patients attended a single 3-hour session, conducted by an interprofessional team. Four topics were addressed: chronic pain mechanisms, pharmacological therapies, physical activity, and the management of analgesics. Patients completed questionnaires at baseline and at 3 months post-session to assess pain interference, pain intensity, and catastrophizing. RESULTS The study population included 88 patients; 71 completed the follow-up questionnaires. Pain interference (p = 0.002), average pain intensity (p = 0.013), and catastrophizing (p < 0.001) decreased 3 months after FastSchool. At M3, 35 % of patients felt their pain had improved based on the Patient Global Impression of Change. CONCLUSION FastSchool, an innovative short-term educational program inspired by cognitive behavioral therapy, showed positive results in reducing pain impact. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Implementation of FastSchool in pain medicine departments would reduce waitlist times for non-pharmacological treatment.

Abstract
Objectives To identify good practice in the community management of chronic pain, and to understand the perspective of a group of healthcare service users towards the management of chronic pain using technology during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Forty-five people, recruited via social media and Pain Association Scotland, participated in three focus groups hosted over Zoom. Focus groups were conducted using semi-structured questions to guide the conversation. Data were analysed using Ritchie / Spencer's Framework Analysis. Results The participants shared observations of their experiences of remotely supported chronic pain services and insights into the potential for future chronic pain care provision. Experiences were in the majority positive with some describing their rapid engagement with technology during the COVID pandemic. Conclusion Results suggest there is strong potential for telehealth to complement and support existing provision of pain management services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain in Parkinson's is problematic but under treated in clinical practice. Healthcare professionals must understand the impact of pain in Parkinson's and patient preferences for management. OBJECTIVE To understand the impact of pain in Parkinson's and to understand current management and preferences for pain management. METHODS We conducted a national survey with 115 people with Parkinson's (PwP) and 10 carers. Both closed and open questions were used. The questions focused on how pain affected the individual, healthcare professional involvement in supporting pain management, current pain management strategies and views on future pain management interventions. We used descriptive statistics to summarize closed responses and thematic analysis to summarize open question responses. RESULTS 70% of participants reported pain impacted their daily life. Pain had a multifactorial impact on participants, affecting movement, mood and quality of life. Improved pain management was viewed to have the potential to address each of these challenges. Pain affected a number of different sites, with low back pain and multiple sites being most frequently reported. Exercise was the most frequently noted strategy (38%) recommended by healthcare professionals for pain management. PwP would value involvement from healthcare professionals for future pain management, but also would like to self-manage the condition. Medication was not suggested as a first line strategy. CONCLUSIONS Despite reporting engagement in some strategies to manage pain, pain still has a wide-ranging impact on the daily life of PwP. Results from this survey highlight the need to better support PwP to manage the impact of pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous neck-specific patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) have tended to measure both symptoms and disability. This multi-staged study developed and evaluated a neck-specific PROM focusing on functional disability. METHODS This study integrated findings from systematic reviews on neck-specific outcome measures, patient interviews, qualitative studies on neck disability, and iterative item testing to develop a 10-item measure of neck-related disability (ND10). Content validity was assessed by classifying items using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and perspective linking. Patients (n = 78) with neck pain completed cognitive interviews, exploring items of the Neck Disability Index (NDI) and ND10, and completed structured questions related to literacy and relevance. Test-retest reliability and internal consistency were evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficients, Bland Altman graphs, and Cronbach's alpha. Concurrent convergent validity was evaluated by comparing the ND10 to the NDI, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), and Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH). Known group validity was determined by comparing ND10 scores from patients, who rated their neck as more or less than 1/2 of "normal" on the SANE, using t-tests. RESULTS The ND10 requires respondents to make rational judgements about their neck-related body function and disability. It has high internal consistency (0.94) and re-test reliability (0.87; SEM = 3.2/100; MDC = 7.5); and no re-test bias (mean re-test difference of 0.6). It followed expected correlation patterns, being highly correlated with related multi-item PROMs (r = 0.85-0.91), and moderately correlated to the single-item SANE. More patients agreed that the ND10 was easily readable than did so for the NDI (84% vs 68%; p < 0.05). All the PROMs distinguished the patients who perceived themselves as being abnormal/normal defined by a dichotomized SANE (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION The ND10 is reliable and valid for measuring neck-related functional disability. Longitudinal and cross-cultural translation studies are needed to support future use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Learning modern pain biology concepts can improve important clinical outcomes for people with chronic pain. The primary purpose of this scoping review is to examine and report characteristics of chronic musculoskeletal pain education programs from an instructional design perspective. METHODS Following PRISMA-ScR guidelines, PubMed, Medline, and CINAHL databases were systematically searched. Articles included expert recommendations and those reporting pain education programs used in clinical trials enrolling adults with chronic neuromusculoskeletal pain and published in English between 1990 and 2021. Three authors independently evaluated articles for eligibility through title, abstract, and full text review. Instructional design characteristics such as learning outcomes, support materials, learning assessment methods, and key concepts communicated were summarized. RESULTS The search revealed 5260 articles of which 40 were included: 27 clinical studies, 7 expert recommendations, and 6 articles reporting on pain education from participant perspectives. Detailed reporting of instructional design characteristics informing replication in subsequent studies is sparse. Most included trials used only lecture and did not assess participant learning. CONCLUSIONS More comprehensive reporting of pain education programs is needed to facilitate replicability. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS This article proposes detailed and standardized reporting of trials using pain education programs employing a modified version of the TIDieR checklist.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In March 2020, state-wide lockdowns were declared in many countries, including Spain. Citizens were confined to their homes and remotely supported activities were prioritized as an alternative to in-person interactions. Previous data suggest that remote and self-management interventions may be successful at reducing pain and related psychological variables. However, individual factors influencing the effectiveness of these interventions remain to be identified. We aimed to investigate the psychological and motivational factors moderating changes in pain observed in chiropractic patients undertaking a novel telehealth self-management programme. METHODS A cohort of 208 patients from a chiropractic teaching clinic was recruited to participate in the study. Patients received telehealth consultations and individualized self-management strategies tailored for their current complaint. They were encouraged to make use of these strategies daily for 2-4 weeks, whilst rating their pain intensity, motivation and adherence. Validated questionnaires were completed online to assess catastrophizing, kinesiophobia and anxiety. RESULTS A total of 168 patients completed the first 2 weeks of the programme, experiencing significant reductions in all variables. Kinesiophobia emerged as a key factor influencing pain reduction and moderating the association between motivation and pain relief. In turn, adherence to the programme was associated with lower pain intensity, although moderated by the degree of motivation. CONCLUSIONS In the context of COVID-19, when introducing remote and self-management strategies, pain cognitions and motivational factors should be taken into consideration to foster adherence and yield better pain outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Revised Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire (Revised-NPQ-Tr) is used to evaluate the chain in pain knowledge. No study has explored its validity and reliability for the Turkish language. OBJECTIVES : This study aims to determine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Revised-NPQ-Tr in chronic spinal pain patients. METHODS A total of 182 chronic spinal pain patients were included in the study. The Revised-NPQ-Tr results were analyzed using Rasch analysis to measure the psychometric properties. RESULTS The Revised-NPQ-Tr indicates misfit to the Rasch model, as evidenced by the borderline significant p value (LR test = 27.626; df = 11; p = .004; Bonferroni-adjusted α = 0.004). Two items were differentially affected by educational status. Removal of poor-functioning items did not improve the psychometric properties of the questionnaire. The Revised-NPQ-Tr is unidimensional and there was no local dependence between items. The questionnaire exhibits known group validity. Test-retest reliability of the questionnaire was moderate [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.629]; however, the internal consistency of the questionnaire was found to be low (Cronbach's α = 0.330; person separation index = 0.373). CONCLUSION Although the internal validity of the Revised-NPQ-Tr version was acceptable, its reliability was found to be low. Consequently, the results of Revised-NPQ-Tr should be interpreted carefully in the clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although comorbidity of major depressive disorder (MDD) and chronic pain (CP) has been well-studied, their association with pain catastrophizing is largely elusive. This study aimed to investigate the potential effects of pain catastrophizing in patients with a comorbidity. METHODS In total, 140 participants were included in this study and divided into three groups according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and the International Association for the study of pain (i.e., the comorbidity group: patients with depression with chronic pain, n = 45; depression group: patients with depression without chronic pain, n = 47; and healthy controls: n = 48). The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD)-24 and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA)-14 were used by professional psychiatrists to evaluate the severity of depression and anxiety. Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were conducted by patients' self-report to assess the symptom severity. The pain intensity numerical rating scale (PI-NRS) was used to assess the pain intensity. Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) and Pain Anxiety Symptoms Scale (PASS) were used to estimate pain-related negative thinking. RESULTS The results showed that PASS and PCS scores were significantly different among the three groups. Particularly, the scores in the comorbidity group were the highest. The Pearson correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between PCS (including the patients' helplessness, magnification, rumination, and total scores) and the severity of depression symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and pain intensity (P < 0.05). A stepwise regression analysis further demonstrated that the total PCS score, high monthly income level, and BDI score had positive impacts on PASS (P < 0.05). We also found that the total BDI score, disease course ≥1 year, and pain intensity had positive effects on PCS (P < 0.05), whereas years of education (≤ 12 years) had a negative effect on PCS (P = 0.012). In all, we have clearly demonstrated that PCS and PASS could serve as potentially predictive factors in patients suffering from comorbidity of MDD and CP. CONCLUSION Our results suggested that the pain-related catastrophic thinking and anxiety were more severe in the comorbidity group than in MDD-only group and healthy group. Pain-related catastrophizing thoughts and anxiety may have potentially effects on the comorbidity of depression and chronic pain.

Physiotherapy Practice in Primary Health Care: A Survey of Physiotherapists in Team-Based Primary Care Organizations in Ontario. Physiother Can 2022; 74:86-94. [PMID: 35185252 PMCID: PMC8816364 DOI: 10.3138/ptc-2020-0060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2020] [Revised: 08/20/2020] [Accepted: 08/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Purpose: This study describes (1) the current state of physiotherapy practice in team-based primary care organizations in Ontario, (2) the perceived barriers to and facilitators of providing physiotherapy services, and (3) recommendations for improving how these services are provided. Method: This was a cross-sectional, web-based survey. We analyzed the responses using descriptive statistics and summative content analysis. Results: A total of 66 responses were received, and 61 were included in the final analysis. The respondents reported that most of their practice was directed toward musculoskeletal care, followed by multi-system, neurological, and cardiorespiratory conditions, and that most of their direct patient care was focused on in-person, one-to-one assessment or follow-up. Frequently identified barriers to providing physiotherapy services included a lack of space, resources, time, and equipment. The most common facilitators were support from management, recognition and support from other health care providers about the value and role of physiotherapists, and appropriate referrals from other health care providers. The most common recommendation was to increase the physiotherapist-to-patient ratio at primary care sites. Conclusions: Physiotherapists provide care to diverse populations in team-based primary care, which is influenced by specific barriers and facilitators. Our results highlight opportunities for physiotherapists in this context, such as increasing the provision of first-contact care and group-based interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Chronic Pain Self-Management Program is an evidence-based intervention that has been shown to be efficacious in reducing symptoms of chronic pain. However, there is a paucity of research examining CPSMP in a predominantly rural population. The purpose was to evaluate patient-reported outcomes of in-person peer-led CPSMP workshops offered in a rural region in 2018 and 2019. METHODS Participants were surveyed at baseline and 6 months post-workshop. Descriptive statistics were used to describe characteristics of CPSMP completers. Paired t-tests were used to analyze change in depression score (PHQ-8), disability (modified Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire), self-efficacy, and patient activation (PAM-10). Analysis of variance was used to detect differences over time by age group, education, insurance type, self-rated health, and comorbidities. RESULTS Among the 327 adults who enrolled in a workshop, 73.1% completed. Of completers, 74.9% were female, average age was 65. Significant improvements were observed in pain disability (P = .0008), patient activation (P = .0362), depression (P < .0001), and self-efficacy (P < .0001), at 6 weeks; and pain disability (P = .0030), depression (P = .0015), and self-efficacy (P = .0064) at 6 months post-program. Individuals who rated their health as fair/poor at baseline reported greater improvements in depression scores than individuals who rated their health as good or better (P < .0002). There were also distinct patterns of change in pain disability among the different age groups. No other differences between groups were noted. CONCLUSIONS The CPSMP appears to improve pain self-efficacy, disability, and depression regardless of age, gender, insurance status, education, or comorbidities. Healthcare and community organizations should consider investing in and offering chronic pain workshops in rural areas in order to promote health and wellness.

Elevated Kinesiophobia Is Associated With Reduced Recovery From Lower Extremity Musculoskeletal Injuries in Military and Civilian Cohorts. Phys Ther 2021; 102:6427350. [PMID: 34935980 PMCID: PMC9432473 DOI: 10.1093/ptj/pzab262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Revised: 06/09/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to examine associations between level of kinesiophobia and improvement in physical function during recovery from lower extremity injury. METHODS A total 430 adults (mean [SD]: age = 27.3 [6.4] years; sex = 70.5% men; body mass index = 27.6 [5.2] kg/m2) were included in the analyses. Using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System, physical function was evaluated in parallel with treatment from a physical therapist at the initial visit and every 3 weeks until final visit or up to 6 months. A Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-17) score of >41 indicated elevated TSK. Four TSK groups were identified: (1) TSK score improved from >41 at initial visit to <41 by final visit (TSK_I), (2) TSK score was <41 at initial and final visits (TSK-), (3) TSK score was >41 at initial and final visits (TSK+), and (4) TSK score worsened from <41 at initial visit to ≥41 by final visit (TSK_W). Linear mixed effects models were used to examine differences between groups in improved physical function over time, with adjustment for depression and self-efficacy. RESULTS Groups with elevated kinesiophobia at the final visit had smaller positive improvements in physical function (mean change [95% CI]: TSK+ = 7.1 [4.8-9.4]; TSK_W: 6.0 [2.6-9.4]) compared with groups without elevated kinesiophobia at the final visit (TSK_I = 9.8 [6.4-13.3]; TSK- = 9.7 [8.1-11.3]) by 12 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Elevated kinesiophobia that persists or develops over the course of care is associated with less improvement in physical function within military and civilian cohorts. IMPACT The findings of this prospective longitudinal study support the need to assess for elevated kinesiophobia throughout the course of care because of its association with decreased improvement in physical function. LAY SUMMARY To help improve your physical function, your physical therapist can monitor the interaction between fear of movement and your clinical outcomes over the course of treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Musculoskeletal pain (MSKP) is an extremely common pain disorder in almost all populations. Self-management (SM) support is a programme to prepare people to self-manage their health condition effectively, while maintaining quality of life. SM is a cost-effective and context-specific strategy to address the global public health burden. OBJECTIVES Self-management needs a change in behaviour from seeking unnecessary medical care to safely self-managing symptoms. As changing individuals' behaviour is challenging, the objective of my literature review was to identify the characteristics, in both therapist and patient, to successfully engage in SM. METHOD A narrative literature review, that could inform evidence-based support programmes for SM of MSKP. RESULTS Studies on successful implementation of SM of MSKP do not report strong outcomes. However, in more recent years a few positive outcomes were reported, possibly as a result of research evidence for the application of psychosocial skills and contemporary pain neuroscience in the management of persistent MSKP. CONCLUSION Psychologically-informed physiotherapy, addressing psychosocial barriers to the maintenance of SM programmes, could facilitate more successful outcomes. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS Before engaging in a SM support programme, obstacles to behaviour change must be identified and addressed in a SM support programme, to facilitate individuals towards taking safe responsibility for their healthcare. Therapists working with patients with persistent MSKP, should upskill themselves to be in line with the latest pain and psychosocial research literature. Moreover, communication skills training seems to be a priority for effective SM support programmes.

A Scoping Review of the Evidence regarding Assessment and Management of Psychological Features of Shoulder Pain. Rehabil Res Pract 2021; 2021:7211201. [PMID: 34631168 PMCID: PMC8497138 DOI: 10.1155/2021/7211201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2021] [Revised: 06/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Methods A scoping review of research studies identified through PubMed, EMBASE, and CINAHL and graduate theses identified using Google Scholar was conducted to determine studies and systematic reviews that addressed the management of psychological aspects of shoulder pain with or without neck pain. The search terms included psychological factors, anxiety, depression, catastrophic thinking, fear of movement, and psychological treatments. Two investigators screened study titles and abstracts. Data extraction, content analysis, and thematic coding focused on the dimensions of pain addressed (emotional, behavioural, and cognitive) and treatment approaches used (dimensions targeted, specific treatment parameters) and the linkage between treatment targets/rationale with interventions/outcomes measured. Results Ten studies (seven randomized trials and three cohorts) were identified that addressed the psychological aspects of shoulder pain. Out of seven RCTs, four compared psychological interventions with usual care. Eight studies used cognitive approaches, including emotional freedom techniques (EFT), pain coping strategies (PCS), physical-cognitive-mindfulness training (PCMT), psychological flexibility, face-to-face cognitive-behavioural treatment (CBT), and cognitive therapy using virtual reality (V.R.). Three studies used the behavioural approaches as their intervention, including behavioural therapy and Graded Exercise Therapy (GET). Pain intensity was addressed as the primary outcome in two studies and as a secondary outcome in five studies. Cognitive factors were evaluated in 50% of the articles using nine different measures. Emotional factors were evaluated in 80% of articles using ten different measures. Reduction of pain intensity and catastrophic thinking concerning pain was achieved in most studies using a biopsychosocial approach (70%). Applying a behavioural approach was associated with reductions in kinesiophobia and pain catastrophizing. Cognitive approaches had a positive association with reductions in the emotional aspect of pain. Only one study specifically linked rationale or specific physical and psychosocial treatment targets with the treatments provided and outcomes measured. Conclusions Small pools of studies indicate that the rationale and treatment targeting are poorly defined in biopsychosocial interventions for shoulder pain. However, these benefits have been demonstrated when cognitive or behavioural components are added to the standard physical treatment of shoulder pain. A better definition of treatment targets, description of intervention components, and linkage of outcomes to targets are needed to advance our understanding of optimizing bio-psychosocial approaches.

Abstract
Purpose: Evidence suggests that a physiotherapist-led chronic pain self-management programme in primary health care (PHC) improves function for people living with chronic pain; however, implementing a new approach to care can be difficult. In this study, we sought to understand the experiences of physiotherapists who had implemented the ChrOnic pain self-ManageMent support with pain science EducatioN and exerCisE (COMMENCE) programme; its perceived barriers, facilitators, benefits, and drawbacks; and how the physiotherapists tailored the programme to their own clinical contexts. Method: This interpretive description qualitative study used semi-structured interviews with physiotherapists who had implemented the COMMENCE programme in PHC. Results: Themes from 11 interviews included experiences of personal and professional growth, increasing confidence with experience, and changing the culture of pain management. Barriers and drawbacks to implementation included resource intensiveness, balancing programme demands with other clinical work, and challenges with patient attendance and participation. Facilitators included training, programme design and materials, supportive teams, and previous knowledge. Benefits included offering group and individualized support, evidence-based content, and sparking interest in learning more about pain management. The participants made small changes to tailor the programme content and delivery to their context. Conclusions: This study provides a rich understanding of the experiences, barriers, facilitators, benefits, drawbacks, and tailoring related to the COMMENCE programme in PHC. The results will facilitate future implementation of this intervention in PHC settings.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to explore the correlations between patients' opioid-taking self-efficacy, social support, and their pain management satisfaction, and to evaluate the effect of social support and opioid-taking self-efficacy in explaining the variance in pain management satisfaction. METHODS We used a cross-sectional and correlational research design and recruited 123 cancer patients via convenience sampling. We used the following instruments: the Opioid-Taking Self-Efficacy Scale, the Inventory of Socially Supportive Behavior, and the Chinese version of the Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale. RESULTS There were significant and negative correlations between opioid-taking self-efficacy and pain management satisfaction (r = - .43, p < .001) and between social support and pain management satisfaction (r = - .47, p < .001). Using a hierarchical regression analysis, social support and opioid-taking self-efficacy explained 17.20% and 5.20%, respectively, of the variance in pain management satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study confirm the importance of social support and opioid-taking self-efficacy in influencing pain management satisfaction. We recommend that professional care providers develop relevant intervention aimed at improving patients' pain management satisfaction.

Abstract
The needs of people living with HIV (PLWH) who have access to antiretroviral therapy have shifted from hospital to community care; however, little is known about physiotherapy within HIV community-based care. Our aim was to understand strengths and challenges of implementing physiotherapy within an interprofessional HIV day health program in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. We conducted a qualitative descriptive study using semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using inductive content analysis. Fifteen PLWH and 5 healthcare providers participated. Strengths included improved access to physiotherapy and fulfilling an unmet need for rehabilitation; a tailored approach to physiotherapy; co-location improved communication, coordination, and engagement in care; and improved health outcomes for PLWH (i.e. function, psychosocial outcomes, and quality of life). Challenges related to managing expectations; variable attendance at visits; and managing complex and diverse needs of PLWH. Results may be transferable to other community-based care settings that provide care for PLWH and complex multi-morbidity.

Abstract
Background: Chronic pain affects one in five persons and is a leading contributor to years lived with disability and high health care costs. In 2016, the government of Ontario increased public funding for pediatric and adult hospital-based interprofessional chronic pain clinics (HICPCs) in Ontario, Canada, expanding the role of physiotherapy in chronic pain management in the province. This role has yet to be described in the literature. Aim: The aim of this study was to explore physiotherapy practice within HICPCs in Ontario. Methods: We conducted an interpretive description qualitative study based on semistructured interviews with physiotherapists employed in pediatric and adult HICPCs in Ontario. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim, and reviewed for accuracy. We analyzed interview data using thematic analysis. Results: Ten physiotherapists who practiced in pediatric and adult HICPCs (n = 4 pediatric; n = 6 adult) in Ontario were interviewed between February and April 2020. We constructed five themes related to physiotherapy practice in this setting. Themes included (1) contributing a functional lens to care; (2) empowering through pain education; (3) facilitating participation in physical activity and exercise; (4) supporting engagement in self-management strategies; and (5) implementing a collaborative approach to whole-person care. Conclusions: Our results illuminate how physiotherapy practice within HICPCs in Ontario focuses on providing a collaborative and whole-person approach to care, with an emphasis on supporting patients to increase their functional capacity by promoting engagement in active chronic pain management strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To use secondary data from the Taking Charge after Stroke study to explore mechanisms for the positive effect of the Take Charge intervention on physical health, advanced activities of daily living and independence for people after acute stroke. DESIGN An open, parallel-group, randomised trial with two active and one control intervention and blinded outcome assessment. SETTING Community. PARTICIPANTS Adults (n = 400) discharged to community, non-institutional living following acute stroke. INTERVENTIONS One, two, or zero sessions of the Take Charge intervention, a self-directed rehabilitation intervention which helps a person with stroke take charge of their own recovery. MEASURES Twelve months after stroke: Mood (Patient Health Questionnaire-2, Mental Component Summary of the Short Form 36); 'ability to Take Charge' using a novel measure, the Autonomy-Mastery-Purpose-Connectedness (AMP-C) score; activation (Patient Activation Measure); body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP) and medication adherence (Medication Adherence Questionnaire). RESULTS Follow-up was near-complete (388/390 (99.5%)) of survivors at 12 months. Mean age (SD) was 72.0 (12.5) years. There were no significant differences in mood, activation, 'ability to Take Charge', medication adherence, BMI or BP by randomised group at 12 months. There was a significant positive association between baseline AMP-C scores and 12-month outcome for control participants (1.73 (95%CI 0.90 to 2.56)) but not for the Take Charge groups combined (0.34 (95%CI -0.17 to 0.85)). CONCLUSION The mechanism by which Take Charge is effective remains uncertain. However, our findings support a hypothesis that baseline variability in motivation, mastery and connectedness may be modified by the Take Charge intervention.

Effect of Multi-Modal Therapies for Kinesiophobia Caused by Musculoskeletal Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17249439. [PMID: 33339263 PMCID: PMC7766030 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17249439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2020] [Revised: 12/01/2020] [Accepted: 12/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to identify the effect of multi-modal therapies that combined physical and psychological therapies for kinesiophobia caused by musculoskeletal disorders compared with uni-modal therapy of only phycological therapy or psychological therapy. The search terms and their logical connector were as following: (1) “kinesiophobia” at the title or abstract; and (2) “randomized” OR “randomized” at title or abstract; not (3) ”design” OR “protocol” at the title. They were typed into the databases of Medline (EBSCO), PubMed, and Ovid, following the different input rules of these databases. The eligibility criteria were: (1) Adults with musculoskeletal disorders or illness as patients; (2) Multi-modal therapies combined physical and psychological therapy as interventions; (3) Uni-modal therapy of only physical or psychological therapy as a comparison; (4) The scores of the 17-items version of the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia as the outcome; (5) Randomized controlled trials as study design. As a result, 12 studies were included with a statistically significant polled effect of 6.99 (95% CI 4.59 to 9.38). Despite a large heterogeneity within studies, multi-modal therapies might be more effective in reducing kinesiophobia than the unimodal of only physical or psychological therapy both in the total and subdivision analysis. The effect might decrease with age. What’s more, this review’s mathematical methods were feasible by taking test-retest reliability of the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia into consideration.
