Effects and Mechanisms of Pain Neuroscience Education in Patients With Fibromyalgia

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Fibromyalgia

In brief

This randomized controlled trials study aims, first, to determine the effectiveness of a nurse-led PNE program designed by a multidisciplinary team, compared with an active control group on pain intensity, fibromyalgia (FM) severity, pain catastrophizing, and cognitive performance in patients with FM. Second, to determine the mediator role of pain catastrophizing in the effects of PNE on outcomes of interest. Third, to explore PNE-induced changes to the brain circuitry using QEEG in patients with FM.
