Evaluation of an on-line resource for pain education by health professionals and people with musculoskeletal pain

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Educational interventions delivered over the Internet have the potential to facilitate access to precise information for people with pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the opinion of health care professionals and the perception of pain comprehension and the behavior modification of patients with musculoskeletal pain related to the on-line resource "Caminho da Recuperação" (Path of Recovery). METHODS: Health care professionals and patients with musculoskeletal pain were selected through the Internet. The professionals judged the quality of the instrument's content considering the concepts of pain education based on neuroscience using a Likert scale. People with pain used an 11-point scale (the higher the value, the greater the perception) to evaluate how the online resource contributed to change. Data was presented through descriptive analysis. RESULTS:The samples were composed of 81 health care professionals and 170 individuals with pain. In the group composed of people with musculoskeletal pain, the perception of the pain comprehension presented the highest mean value (6.7 / 10) and the return to physical activity the lowest mean value (5.2 / 10).

Zoom-based GROW coaching intervention for improving subjective well-being in a sample of school administrators: A randomized control trial

Online coaching has been shown to improve health and professional outcomes, especially among school administrators ( Brandmo et al, 2021 ; Gayed et al, 2019 ; Jones and Ringler, 2020 ).…”
