Clinical Trial Summary

Fibromyalgia is a painful syndrome of unknown etiology, which affects 2% of world population, with symptoms such as: pain, unrefreshing sleep, fatigue and mood disorders. It is already established in the literature that resistance training is part of the non- pharmacological treatment for patients with fibromyalgia. The big gap is about the quantity adequate and/or recommended exercise volume, despite some studies with exercise volumes different resistance trainings show improvements, we do not have a direction, besides We still do not know whether there is a preference for these patients in different resistance training volumes.


Clinical Trial Description

Objective: Assess training volume preference resisted in women with fibromyalgia. Method: Crossover randomized clinical trial, randomized and blind. 36 women with fibromyalgia will be evaluated, who will undergo three resistance training programs with different training volumes. The primary outcome will be patient preference in relation to training volumes, and the secondary ones will be the patient expectation, pain intensity, affect and subjective perception of exertion. Analysis statistics: For the primary outcome preference, the number of choices will be counted of the 3 types of training in percentage form. Regarding the analysis of the primary outcome we will summarize the patient's preference in a contingency table, we will compare the proportions using the Chi-square test, and finally we will check the effect size of the observed differences. For secondary outcomes, statistical analyzes will be performed by a blind statistician using commercial software. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test will be applied to verify the distribution of data and Levene's test will be used to analyze the homogeneity of variance. The Bonferroni test will be used in post hoc analyzes to determine whether there are differences between the groups at different intervention times. One 5% significance level and 95% CI will be adopted for all statistical analyses. ethic and dissemination: The results of the study will be disseminated to participants and subjected to a peer-reviewed journal and scientific meetings. ;
