简要总结
This study aims at analyzing the usefulness of a new educational tool developed by Pain Revolution, a compendium of 9 fact sheets along with a related quiz in patients from the Hospital Vall d'Hebron of Barcelona suffering from fibromyalgia, compared to a non-education group. The present study also aims at comparing the usefulness of the new tool based on PNE in two different formats: read and explained.
详细描述
Main objective
A compendium of 9 fact sheets along with a related quiz have been developed in order to provide overall population current pain-science knowledge. The present study aims at analyzing the usefulness of this new tool based on pain neuroscience education (PNE) in patients from the Hospital Vall d'Hebron of Barcelona suffering from fibromyalgia, compared to a non-education group.
Secondary objective
Due to the extended content of the fact sheets, these can be delivered to the patient as a reading material or can be used as a support material in a educational presentation. Therefore, this study also aims at comparing the usefulness of the new tool based on PNE in two different formats: read autonomously by the patient and explained by a pain-science expert to the patient.
This is a tree-arm RCT: TAU group and intervention group with 2 different groups as follows:

Pain Revolution Quiz
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 1 week]
The Pain Revolution Quiz comprises two main sections: one first section related to the acquired knowledge after the fact sheets and the second section incorporates 4 questions with feedback about the learning process. The first section encompasses 26 items which are used to measure acquired knowledge by the subjects after being provided the 9 fact sheets content. The 26 items are answered on multicomponent choices of three possible alternatives: true, false and I don't know. Total scores can range from 0 to 26. Some of the items respond to reverse score, such as 1, 5, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 20, 22, 25, 26. This tool has been recently developed by Pain Revolution, a pain educator network founded by Professor Lorimer Moseley, group leader in Body in Mind Research Group from University of South Australia. The adequate internal consistency and acceptable test-retest reliability is currently being studied. In the same manner, the Spanish version is evaluated for first time in the present study.
