Filter by:The present project will evaluate through a randomised controlled clinical trial with 4-month follow-up, the efficacy in clinical symptoms and quality of life (3-month time horizon) of the multicomponent EXPERIENTIAL FIBROWALK programme in treating individuals diagnosed with fibromyalgia, in compare with original Fibrowalk and virtual Fibrowalk. Pre-post changes will be evaluated in various variables under investigation, will include kinesiophobia, physical function, anxiety, depression, physical dysfunction, overall impact, and symptom intensity. The design of the present study with 3 treatment branches: Condition or disease Fibromyalgia Intervention/treatment Behavioral: TAU + Experiential Fibrowalk Behavioral: TAU + Fibrowalk Behavioral: TAU + virtual
The principal objective is to contribute valuable insights that hold direct implications for medical practice and patient care, with the potential to influence health policy pertaining to fibromyalgia management.
The main aim of the study was to investigate self-administered emotional to determine the effect of the freedom technique on pain and stress levels. The sub-objectives of the study are as follows: 1. To determine the effect of self-administration of EFT on pain level. 2. To determine the effect of self-administered EFT on stress level. 3. To determine the effect of EFT self-administration on comfort level.
The present study seeks to follow up the cohort of adults representative of Chile's urban population whose levels of chronic pain were evaluated in March 2023 (baseline) as part of the Mental Health Thermometer (MHT) study. The study consists of a 12 month follow-up telephone interview to assess parameters of chronic pain (CP) and subtypes, mental and physical health, lifestyle and adversity and work characteristics. The study objectives are as follows: 1. Estimate the prevalence of CP and subtypes in the general population 2. Explore the association between mental health indicators, perceived work stress and presence of CP in the population. 3. Investigate the impact of CP (functional, occupational and social) among the subset of participants reporting CP 4. Describe the use of management strategies in those who suffer from CP.
The study aims to gather knowledge about the patient's acceptance of the intervention and testing procedures, assess the adherence to the intervention, estimate the recruitment rate, and inform the sample size calculation for a subsequent randomized controlled trial.
This is an ongoing, prospective, and retrospective cohort study of fibromyalgia patients who receive clinical care at Swing Care (a fibromyalgia virtual specialty clinic). Deidentified data on demographics, clinical outcomes, patients' treatment engagement and preference, as well as patients' satisfaction are obtained and analyzed via retrospective and prospective chart review. A waiver of informed consent has been approved by the reviewing Institutional Review Board.
PRONACERA THERAPEUTICS S.L. is a young biotechnological company focused on the development of genetic diagnostic tools and treatments for pathologies in different medical areas such as reproduction, fibromyalgia and rare diseases or with deficiencies in diagnosis, with the aim of helping to optimize health systems through improvement in terms and forms of diagnosis. Among the multiple lines of R+D+i that are currently being developed, the reproductive genomic line and endometrial functional molecular biology stand out. Specifically, it develops the design of markers and performs the genetic analysis of infertility focused on female endometrial tissue. Fibromyalgia is a complex and common chronic pain disorder that affects 12 million Europeans. Along with other symptoms, fibromyalgia causes pain and general tenderness to touch. Currently this disease is diagnosed following the criteria established by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) of a combination of relevant symptoms and the description of how the person feels. In other words, in practice it is a diagnosis by elimination. A patient suffering from fibromyalgia usually takes between 2 to 3 years to obtain the correct diagnosis. Health experts consider that fibromyalgia is a disease that is difficult to diagnose and that is associated with an expensive use of health system services. With FIBROKIT, Pronacera aims to design and develop a new diagnostic and monitoring tool for fibromyalgia by designing a panel of specific plasma proteome and intestinal microbiome biomarkers and reducing the number of biological samples used. During the execution of this project, the company will have three leading research and innovation organizations in the sector (Helix BioS, CINUSA and CICbioGUNE) that will support Pronacera. FIBROKIT will have a cohort of 250 participants (206 patients and 44 healthy volunteers) to validate the diagnostic capacity of the tool and perform a robust biostatistical study.
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome characterized by generalized musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, non-restorative sleep, cognitive alterations, depressive and neurovegetative symptoms. Conventional pharmacological therapies are known to produce responses with little clinical impact in more than 50% of patients. Functional alterations of the motor cortex and its connections with subcortical structures have also been demonstrated in FM. Based on the above, the objective of this research is to identify subgroups of patients with greater potential for response to treatment with a view to advancing diagnosis and treatment. In this study, the therapeutic target will be transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) according to the potential of responsiveness to the placebo effect, with the precise location of the stimulation area by a neuronavigation system, with the objective of counter-regulating the processes dysfunctional factors responsible for triggering and maintaining FM symptoms. Therefore, this clinical trial aims to compare the effectiveness of anodic tDCS applied in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) compared to sham tDCS in FM, according to susceptibility to the placebo effect and serum endorphin levels.

Therefore, this clinical trial aims to compare the efficacy of anodal tDCS applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) compared to simulated tDCS in FM, according to susceptibility to placebo effect and serum endorphin levels.
Purpose: To determine the effects of activity management training on pain, occupational performance, quality of life, depression, anxiety and occupational balance in women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). In addition to, reducing pain, which is the main symptom of FMS, by regulating the activity-rest cycle, it is aimed to increase people's participation in daily life and improve their quality of life. Method: A randomized controlled trial. A total of 10 sessions of individual-internet-based activity management training are applied to women with FMS in the intervention group, 2 sessions a week for 5 weeks, 1st and 10th sessions are pre- and post-training evaluation. Assessments before and after training The Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR), Canadian Occupational Performance Measure(COPM), Pain-activity patterns scale (Pomp/APPS) ,Nottingham Health Profile,The hospital anxiety and depression scale,The Occupational Balance Questionnaire (OBQ) is applied.Although no intervention is applied to the control group, only preliminary and final evaluations are completed.
