简要总结
This study evaluated the effects of a multidisciplinary biopsychosocial program compared with standard multimodal care in patients with chronic low back pain treated at the University Hospital Osijek. Outcomes included pain intensity, disability, health-related quality of life, anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep quality. Data were collected using standardized self-assessment questionnaires and objective monitoring of sleep and physical activity during a four-week intervention period. The study was conducted as part of a doctoral dissertation.
详细描述
This prospective, randomized, parallel-group study compared a multidisciplinary biopsychosocial treatment program with standard multimodal care in patients with chronic low back pain treated at the Department of Pain Management, University Hospital Osijek.
Participants were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups using a random number generator. The multidisciplinary biopsychosocial group participated in a structured four-week program that included patient education, supervised exercise, individualized multidisciplinary care, pharmacotherapy, and acupuncture. The standard multimodal care group received conservative treatment, including pharmacotherapy, physical therapy modalities, and acupuncture.
Clinical and patient-reported outcomes were assessed using standardized self-report questionnaires measuring pain intensity, functional disability, health-related quality of life, anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep quality. In addition, objective data on sleep and physical activity were collected using a wearable smartwatch during the intervention period.
The study was conducted between November 2021 and May 2023 as part of a doctoral dissertation.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in pain intensity from baseline to Day 28 measured by Numeric Rating Scale (0-10)
时间窗: Baseline and Day 28
Pain intensity is assessed using a self-reported 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable pain). The outcome represents the change in pain intensity from baseline to Day 28, with greater reductions indicating improvement.
