简要总结
The proposed research is to develop and refine a multicomponent breathwork intervention, Guided Respiration Mindfulness Therapy, and to iteratively evaluate its feasibility, acceptability, and plausibility for clinically significant effects in people with chronic low back pain. This integrative breathwork intervention involves a 60-minute breathing session where the focus is to maintain a conscious connected breathing pattern (no pause between inhale and exhale), apply mindful acceptance to somatic sensations, and relax any physical tension. Each breathwork session will be delivered 1-on-1 in person by a trained facilitator. The treatment consists of 8 breathwork sessions, once per week for 8 weeks.
详细描述
Multiple single-arm iterations of an 8-week breathwork intervention will be conducted to refine and optimize the intervention and protocol. Upon completion of each iteration, quantitative and qualitative data will be gathered to identify possible modifications before proceeding with the next iteration. This work will provide initial evidence on the feasibility, acceptability, and plausibility of clinically significant effects of this type of multicomponent breathwork intervention for adults with chronic low back pain.

研究组 & 干预措施
Integrative Breathwork Intervention
The integrative, multicomponent breathwork intervention that will be tested in this study is called Guided Respiration Mindfulness Therapy. Participants will receive a 60 minute breathwork session once a week for 8 weeks.
干预措施: Integrative Breathwork Intervention
结局指标
主要结局
Treatment Acceptability
时间窗: Post-treatment (after the 8-week intervention)
Treatment acceptability and participant satisfaction of the breathwork intervention will be measured using the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire and several face valid items. (0-10; higher values = greater treatment acceptability and satisfaction).
Participant Retention
时间窗: Post-treatment (Week 8)
Percentage of randomized participants who complete post-treatment assessment.
Intervention Adherence
时间窗: Post-treatment (Week 8)
Percentage of intervention sessions attended by participants.
Change in Pain Intensity
时间窗: Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.
The Pain, Enjoyment, and General Activities (PEG-3) scale will be used to assess pain intensity over the past week on average. (0-10; higher values = greater pain intensity).
Change in Pain Interference
时间窗: Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.
The Pain, Enjoyment, and General Activities (PEG-3) will be used assess pain interference over the past week. (0-10; higher values = greater pain interference).

- Change in Stress(Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.)
- Change in Interoception(Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.)
- Change in Mindful Reappraisal of Pain Sensations(Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.)
- Treatment Credibility(After Intervention session 3)

- Change in Pain Catastrophizing(Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.)
- Change in Depression(Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.)
- Change in Pain Self-Efficacy(Change from Baseline (Week 0) to Post-treatment (Week 8), 1-month follow-up.)
