Overview
Brief Summary
The main objective of this study is to analyse the efficacy of the NAT-FM multicomponent treatment program as coadjuvant of treatment-as-usual (TAU) compared to TAU alone.
In this Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), in addition to evaluating the clinical effects of NAT-FM treatment in the short- and long-term, the research team will seek to identify relevant moderators and mediators of clinical change.
Detailed Description
* This is a two-arm RCT focused on the safety and potential efficacy of the multicomponent program NAT-FM as coadjuvant of treatment-as-usual (TAU) vs. TAU alone. * NAT-FM combines Classical Structural Assessment (CSA) and Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) to obtain more reliable information about the dynamics of the variables to be evaluated, to record the affective and cognitive impact of each activity, and to explore its potential delivery in real-world clinical practice. * The main hypothesis is that improvement on functional impairment of patients with fibromyalgia can be achieved by the direct intervention on mechanisms such as self-efficacy and pain catastrophizing.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR)
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 9 months
The FIQR comprises three dimensions: physical dysfunction (scores from 0 to 30), overall impact (scores from 0 to 20), and intensity of the symptoms (scores from 0 to 50) is used to measure the impact generated by FM during the last week. It consists of 21 items, which are answered on a numerical rating scale of 11 points (from 0 to 10). Total scores can range from 0 to 100, with higher scores reflecting greater deterioration.
Secondary Outcomes
- Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-11)(Through study completion, an average of 9 months)
- Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)(Through study completion, an average of 9 months)
- Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)(Through study completion, an average of 9 months)
- Personal Perceived Competence Scale (PPCS)(Through study completion, an average of 9 months)
- Perceived Stress Scale (PSS)(Through study completion, an average of 9 months)
