Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluates whether the implementation of an integrated clinical program for chronic musculoskeletal pain and depression behave better clinical outcomes than the usual approach in primary care


Clinical Trial Description

Chronic musculoskeletal pain and depression are extremely common and relevant pathological conditions, and frequently presented as comorbid processes multiplying the impact on health, worsening the prognosis and complicating the care. The integrated management of both disorders is an opportunity to achieve better clinical outcomes.

AIM: To determinate whether the implementation of an integrated clinical program for chronic musculoskeletal pain and depression behave better clinical outcomes than the usual approach in primary care

METHODS

Design: Cluster randomized clinical trials with two arms:

1. Intervention: Integrated program for depression/chronic pain, and

2. control usual care.

Settings: Primary Care Centers in Tarragona, Spain. Patients: Adults with moderate/severe musculoskeletal pain (Brief Pain Inventory/pain intensity scale > 4 points), with more than three months of evolution and current diagnostic criteria for major depression episode (DSM-IV).

Sample: A total sample of 330 patients (165 control arm and 165 intervention arm) divided into 42 clusters of 8 patients. Cluster composition: patients registered with the same doctor.

Intervention: Structured program with integrated management for depression/ pain with three main components:

1. Optimized care of major depression,

2. Case Management, and

3. Group psychoeducational intervention.

Measurements: "Blind" interviews at 0, 3, 6 and 12 months.

Main outcomes:

- Depressive symptoms (Hopkins Symptom Checklist-20): Severity, response rate and remission rate.

- Pain symptoms (Brief Pain Inventory). Intensity and interference, response rate.

- Disability by psychological problems (Sheehan Disability Inventory)

- Quality of life related to health (EuroQol-5D). ;
