简要总结
Chronic pain is pain whose duration usually exceeds a period of three months and standard treatment is ineffective. This pain brings many changes in physical and psychological functioning to the individual and can even lead to a reduction in the quality of life. The main goal of the project is to determine the impact of pain and treatment on the quality of life and patterns of physical activity in patients with chronic pain. Furthermore, evaluate specific changes in quality of life, disability, physical activity, BMI, and body composition after the application of therapeutic and educational measures. Another goal is to validate an assessment tool for assessing the activity patterns of patients with chronic pain. In the first phase, the Czech version of the Patterns of Activity Measures-Pain scale (POAM-P/CZ) will be validated to assess the activity patterns of individuals with chronic pain. Subsequently, a prospective observational study will be carried out with the aim of comparing differences in quality of life, disability, activity patterns, BMI (body composition), and psychosocial variables after the application of targeted treatment measures and educational interventions. The subjective assessment of pain will be supplemented by the assessment of the Analgesia Nociception Index. The results of the project can contribute to the development of effective long-term strategies for the optimization of educational programs to support the self-management of chronic pain and the specific focus of health care.
详细描述
Chronic pain is defined as pain whose duration usually exceeds a period of three months and standard treatment is ineffective (exceeds the usual time frame of the duration of an acute illness or the expected time of healing of a pathological condition). This pain is harmful and brings many changes to the individual, it can lead to the devastation of the quality of life. One of the dominant secondary effects of chronic pain is a change in the way one performs activities of daily living. The most common changes in activity are avoidance of activities, overexertion, and modulation of the pace of activities. Determining activity patterns is a condition for subsequent targeted educational activities by the nurse. In the Czech Republic, however, there is no specific tool for evaluating movement activities in patients with chronic pain.
The goal of treatment and nursing care for a patient with chronic pain is to reduce pain intensity, achieve appropriate patterns of physical activity and sleep, and improve quality of life. A key step in treatment is the assessment of pain and its impact on functional status and the level of psychosocial relationships.
The main goal of the research is to determine the impact of pain and treatment on the quality of life and physical activity in patients with chronic pain. Other goals include validating the Patterns of Activity Measures-Pain Scale (POAM-P) questionnaire to assess patterns of daily activities of patients with chronic pain in the Czech Republic, to determine the relationship between chronic pain, quality of life, disability in daily activities, physical activity, BMI and mood disorders, compare differences in quality of life, disability, physical activity, BMI and mood disorders after using different therapeutic approaches and education, compare subjective pain assessment and Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) assessment.
In the first phase of the study, a transcultural validation of the Czech language version of the POAM-P will be carried out according to published recommendations, followed by the creation of a questionnaire set including demographic characteristics, treatment interventions, assessment of the quality of life, disability, mood disorders, and pain intensity in the second phase. Subsequently, 150 patients with chronic pain will be subjected to a questionnaire survey and BMI measurement repeatedly after a minimum of 3 and 6 months during regular outpatient check-ups. The subjective assessment of pain will be supplemented by the assessment of the Analgesia Nociception Index.

结局指标
主要结局
Oswestry Disability Index (ODI2.1a)
时间窗: 24 months
Assessment of the Oswestry Disability Index. Assessment of the effect of pain and its treatment after 3 and 6 months of treatment and educational activities on physical disability (restriction of the ability to sit, stand, lift loads and walk), social handicap (social life, sex life - if relevant, travel, personal care), pain and sleep (10 items). The rating for each item is 0-5 points, maximum 50 points. The resulting score is evaluated as minimal disability, moderate disability, severe disability and paralysis.
Patterns of Activity Measures-Pain scale
时间窗: 24 months
Assessment of the Patterns of Activity Measures-Pain scale (POAM-P) after 3 and 6 months of treatment and educational activities. Assessment of the effect of pain and its treatment on physical activities (scores in three areas: Avoidance, Overdoing, and Pacing). Scores for each activity range from 0 to 40 for each behaviour pattern. A higher score indicates a more active individual.
World Health Organization Quality of Life - BREF version (WHOQOL-BREF)
时间窗: 24 months
Assessment of the World Health Organization Quality of Life - BREF. Assessment of the effect of pain and its treatment after 3 and 6 months of therapeutic and educational activities in 4 domains: physical health, experience, social relationships, environment and two separate items assessing overall quality of life and health satisfaction. A higher score indicates a higher quality of life.
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
时间窗: 24 months
Assessment of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale consists of two subscales. Each subscale has seven items. The HADS-A (anxiety) subscale measures anxiety symptoms and the HADS-D (depression) subscale measures depression symptoms. HADS-T (total) reflects the overall level of distress. Each item has four answer options, with a possible scoring of 0-3. The total number of points in each scale is 0-21 points. A value of 8 is considered as the cut-off point for mild depression/anxiety and a value of 11 for definite depression/anxiety (11 to 14 - moderate; 15 to 21 - high). The total HADS-T score, which ranges from 0 to 42 points, is also evaluated.
