Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this intervention is to measure the impact of a 12-session intervention with Arts in Health methodology on the quality of life of the population with fibromyalgia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To know if the methodology of Arts in Health is effective for the improvement of the functional capacity of people with fibromyalgia - Which are the most effective techniques within this intervention During the intervention, the participants will take part in mindfulness sessions, dance, visual thinking strategies, aimed at a greater understanding of the disease and the development of healthy habits. The results of this intervention are compared with a control group, in which the same scales and instruments will be passed in the same period of time. To complete the information gathering, a focus group will be held to obtain qualitative information about the experience of the participants.


Clinical Trial Description

Arts in Health is a methodology that seeks to use the power of arts and culture to improve people's health and well-being. To develop it, collaboration is promoted between health professionals and those in the artistic and cultural fields. In accordance with the Arts in Health strategy of the Catalan Health Institute, the primary health care professionals in Figueres have started a joint project along Museu de l'Empordà, a local museum, to address fibromyalgia from this perspective. The objectives are to quantitatively analyze the effectiveness of an Arts in Health intervention to improve the functional capacity with respect to pain and the quality of life of people with fibromyalgia. Also, qualitatively assess the experience of the participants and explore how they value the impact of cultural activities on health. Joint work has been carried out to produce a guide where, through different modalities of Art, the symptoms and needs of people suffering from fibromyalgia will be addressed. Affected people have also collaborated in this process. With the results of this work, the content of the Intervention has been designed. From here, a mixed methodology study is proposed through a randomized clinical trial for people affected by fibromyalgia. For the quantitative analysis, quality of life tests and a disability perception test due to pain, (FIQ-R), will be taken before, at the end and 6 months after the intervention. For the qualitative analysis, focus groups will be formed at the end of the intervention. ;
