Other | Blinding | Blinding of subjects and researchers will be assessed using the James Index. | Immediately after intervention | |
Primary | Change in referred pain area after suprathreshold pressure stimulation from baseline to post-treatment | A pressure algometer (Force Ten™, Wagner Instruments, USA) will be used. It will be performed on the infraspinatus muscle (point equidistant between the midpoint of the spine of the scapula, the inferior angle of the scapula and the midpoint of the medial border of the scapula) at a constant suprathreshold pressure (20% above the pressure pain threshold) for 60 seconds. After the stimulation, the subject should draw the induced pain area on a digital bodychart using the Navigate Pain application (Navigate Pain, Aalborg University, Denmark). |
Baseline; immediately after intervention; 1-month after intervention | |
Primary | Change in pain intensity from baseline to post-treatment | It will be measured with a visual analog scale (VAS) of 100 millimeters in length. The subject has to indicate the level of pain he feels, being 0 the absence of pain and 100 the maximum imaginable | Baseline; immediately after intervention; 1-month after intervention | |
Secondary | Fibromyalgia Impact Quality-of-Life | It will be measured with the version adapted to the Spanish of the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ). The scale ranges from 0 to 100. Higher values represent a worse result. | Baseline; immediately after intervention; 1-month after intervention | |
Secondary | Anxiety | The version adapted to Spanish from the State Scale (STAI-ES) of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) will be used. The scale ranges from 0 to 60. Higher values represent a worse result. | Baseline; immediately after intervention; 1-month after intervention | |
Secondary | Pain catastrophizing | The Spanish version of the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) will be used. The scale ranges from 0 to 52. Higher values represent a worse result. | Baseline; immediately after intervention; 1-month after intervention | |
Secondary | Depression | The adaptation to the Spanish of Beck Depression Inventory II will be used. The scale ranges from 0 to 63. Higher values represent a worse result. | Baseline; immediately after intervention; 1-month after intervention |
