The Feasibility, Potential Efficacy, and Experiences of Using a Group-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Among Older People With Chronic Low Back Pain

Chronic Low-back Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Feasibility, Potential Efficacy, and Experiences of Using a Group-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Among Older People With Chronic Low Back Pain: a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

No study has investigated the effects of ACT on community-dwelling Chinese older adults. Given that clinical practice guidelines have recommended exercise therapy for treating people with CLBP, a combination of ACT and exercise therapy may yield better clinical outcomes than exercise alone among community-dwelling older adults with CLBP. A double-blinded (participants and statistician) pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to evaluate the feasibility and the relative effects of ACT plus back exercise training as compared to exercise alone in improving psychological flexibility, physical wellbeing, and quality of life of community-dwelling older people with CLBP. Further, a qualitative research study will be conducted to understand the experiences of participating in ACT and back exercise training in older people with CLBP (including identifying facilitators and barriers to participation).

Clinical Trial Description

Participants will be recruited from rehabilitation clinics, or community centres by posters posted in these locations. A total of 30 older people with LBP will be recruited and randomized into either a 4-week ACT plus back exercise group, or a back exercise control group. Immediately after the 4-week treatment, participants will be invited to complete another set of questionnaires that are identical to their baseline questionnaires to evaluate the effects of interventions on their pain, physical function, psychological wellbeing, and quality of life. At 3-month post-treatment, participants will be invited to complete the identical questionnaires again. ;
