Clinical Trial Summary

A standardized behavioural approach based on mindfulness delivered mainly by a specific APP on android will be developed and applied for patients with chronic pain conditions, as migraine and neuropathic pain. The aim of this pilot study: The investigators propose a pilot study to enforce the application of a Home-program for patients with different pain conditions, to learn mindfulness practice, added to a regular mindfulness guided face-to-face program, by using the technology with android to receive mindfulness sessions for daily practice and to assess the feasibility and the effectiveness of behavioural approach base on mindfulness delivered with this modality.


Clinical Trial Description

Background and significance Different clinical experiences confirmed the effectiveness of interventions based on the application of standardized behavioural approaches to support pharmacological traditional treatments for pain conditions in the last decades. Also, different clinical experiences were performed by using electronic devices to deliver home-sessions of behavioral approach (mindfulness) to patients that can practice regularly and supported by mindfulness recorded sessions The aspect of feasibility of these treatments is not reported in published studies, but it can be estimated that standardized behavioural therapies are used in helping patients to obtain a better outcome for pain management In particular, the use of technology to deliver behavioral exercises to patients suffering from different pain conditions, as neuropathic pain and migraine, have been reported in the literature of the last decades. Exercise-based on telemedicine and smartphone applications seem appropriate, as they have been recently tested in the management of chronic pain conditions to reinforce the efficacy of pharmacological therapies and to teach patients to manage their pain and to be more conscious about their clinical condition and about the use of drugs. ;
