简要总结
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of classical massage on pain, fibromyalgia severity and quality of life in fibromyalgia patients.
Material and Method: The research will be carried out with 75 patients with fibromyalgia who refer to Artvin State Hospital Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic. The patients will be grouped in 3 through simple randomization: trapezius group , foot group and control group. In the physical therapy unit, the patients in trapezius group will receive a total of 12 sessions of trapezius massage, 2 sessions per week for 6 weeks; the patients in foot group will receive a total of 12 sessions of foot massage, 2 sessions per week for 6 weeks and control group will not receive massage. Patient information form, VAS pain scale, Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire and SF 36 Quality of Life Scale will be used to collect data. Chi-square paired t test, Wilcoxon test, one-way analysis of variance and Kruskal Wallis test will be used in the analysis of data.
详细描述
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disease characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain associated with a range of somatic symptoms such as fatigue, sleep disturbance, and somatic and cognitive symptoms.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of classical massage on pain, fibromyalgia severity and quality of life in fibromyalgia patients.
The research will be carried out with 75 patients with fibromyalgia who refer to Artvin State Hospital Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic. The patients will be grouped in 3 through simple randomization: trapezius group, foot group and control group. Fibromyalgia patients coming to the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Unit will be met and informed about the research. Written informed consent will be obtained from patients who agree to participate in the study. VAS will be applied to each patient coming to the outpatient clinic and their fulfilment of the inclusion criteria will be determined. Patient information form, FIQR and SF-36 quality of life scale will be applied.
The patients intrapezius group will be given classical massage to the trapezius muscle for 6 weeks, 2 sessions per week (12 sessions in total) by the researcher in the physical therapy unit.
The patients in foot group will be given foot massage for 6 weeks, 2 sessions per week (12 sessions in total) by the researcher in the physical therapy unit.

结局指标
主要结局
Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire
时间窗: six week
The scale, which evaluates the effect of fibromyalgia during the last week, consists of 3 sub-dimensions: function (9 items), general effect (2 items) and symptom (10 items) and a total of 21 questions. Scale questions are scored between 0 and 10 points, with 10 indicating the worst possible situation. The total score for the function sub-dimension (between 0 and 90) is divided by 3, the total score for the impact sub-dimension (between 0 and 20) is not divided, and the total score for the symptom sub-dimension (between 0 to 100) is divided by 2 and sub-dimension scores are obtained. The function sub-dimension of the scale ranges between 0 and 30, the impact sub-dimension ranges between 0 and 20, and the symptom sub-dimension ranges between 0 and 50 points. The total scale score is obtained by adding the sub-dimensions, and it is between 0-100; higher scores indicate higher effect of fibromyalgia
Visual Analog Scale (VAS)-Pain
时间窗: six week
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS 0-10) is a straight line used to measure the variability of pain, showing the continuity of pain. There is no pain (0) on one end of this line, and most severe pain (10) on the other end. The intensity of pain is marked on this line. The value found by measuring the place marked on the 10 cm long line with a ruler determines the pain.
