“…Informed consent was obtained from patients and their spouses. Pain patients completed the McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ [17,18]), the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II [19]), the Pain Disability Index (PDI [20,21]), the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS [22,23]) and the Multidimensional Pain Inventory-Patient Version (MPI [24,25]). Spouses completed the BDI-II (19) and the PCS (for their own catastrophizing level) (22,23).…”

The present study examined the relationship between couple concordance of catastrophizing and adverse pain outcomes. Possible mechanisms underlying the relationship between couple concordance of catastrophizing and pain outcomes were also explored. Fifty-eight couples were recruited for the study. The chronic pain patients were filmed while lifting a series of weighted canisters. The spouse was later invited to view the video and answer questions about the pain experience of their partner. Median splits on Pain Catastrophizing Scale scores were used to create four 'catastrophizing concordance' groups: low catastrophizing patient-low catastrophizing spouse; low catastrophizing patient-high catastrophizing spouse; high catastrophizing patient-low catastrophizing spouse; and high catastrophizing patient-high catastrophizing spouse. Analyses revealed that high catastrophizing pain patients who were in a relationship with a low catastrophizing spouse displayed more pain behaviours than patients in all other groups. These findings suggest that high catastrophizing chronic pain patients may need to increase the 'volume' of pain communication to compensate for low catastrophizing spouses' tendency to underestimate the severity of their pain experience. Patients' perceived solicitousness and punitive response from the spouse could not explain the group differences in pain behaviour. Theoretical and clinical implications of the findings are discussed.

“…This 49-item tool evaluates several dimensions of the impact of chronic pain including patient experience with the pain, perceived support from the significant other (usually the spouse), and daily activities [29,30]. Three coping categories have been suggested: dysfunctional, interpersonally distressed, and minimizers/adaptive copers [31].…”

Pain assessment in rheumatology – How can we do better? A literature review

2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Patients' symptoms have a place of prominence in the rheumatology landscape, and among them pain is the most conspicuous. Several pain assessment tools have been validated. Onedimensional pain scales such as visual analog scales (VASs) and numeric rating scales (NRSs) are fast to administer but have limitations that must be acknowledged. Some clinical situations require the use of multidimensional scales such as the McGill Pain Questionnaire or the Multidimensional Pain Inventory (MPI). These tools allow the assessment and management of the diverse components of pain. Here, we review the main patient-reported outcomes that can serve to evaluate pain and the psychometric properties of pain assessment tools. We also discuss the selection of the tool most appropriate for each situation (e.g., everyday practice and research).

“…Quanto mais elevado o valor, maior o nível de importância agregado à variável. Em pacientes com dores crônicas os valores médios citados pela literatura científica são de 4,37 (± 1,05), 4,71(± 0,93), 4,33(± 1,63), 3,12 (± 1,32), e 3,55 (± 1,26), respectivamente (16) .…”

Objective: To assess long-term efficacy of an interdisciplinary group intervention of patients with fibromyalgia (FM) as compared with (Canadian) standard medical care. Methods: The program, called Interactional School of Fibromyalgia (ISF), consists of 9 meetings (during 11 weeks) with eight participants and two facilitators. Sixty women with FM were randomly assigned to one of two groups (ISF or Control group). Outcomes variables were: clincal pain and energy (Visual analogue scale and five Multidimentional Pain Iventory (Pain severtity, Pain iterference, Life control, Affective distress and Support from significant others). These variables were measured at baseline; immediately after the program; 4 months and 1 year later. Results: Efficacy analyses from completers showed a treatment effect on measures even after one year. The aderence of ISF was 97%. Analyses of variance (2 × 3) and Intent-to-treat analyses indicate that ISF group experienced lower pain (all ps < 0,05) even at the one year follow up. Conclusion: These findings demonstrate the long-term efficacy of this group intervention. Strategies to increase patients' adherence were discuted.Keywords: fibromyalgia, interdisciplinary group intervention long term effects, active participation of patients, treatment adherence. RESuMoObjetivo: Avaliar os efeitos tardios de um programa interdisciplinar para pacientes com síndrome de fibromialgia (FM) e comparar esses efeitos com o tratamento tradicional (acompanhamento médico, exames, medicamentos). Método: O tratamento proposto, denominado Escola Inter-relacional de Fibromialgia (EIF), consiste de um programa interdisciplinar de 11 semanas, com nove encontros com grupos de oito pacientes e dois profissionais da saúde. Trinta mulheres com FM participaram do grupo experimental e outras 30 do grupo-controle. Ambos os grupos foram avaliados em três momentos distintos: antes da EIF, imediatamente após e quatro meses após a alta. As pacientes que constituíam o grupo experimental foram também reavaliadas 12 meses após obterem alta. As variáveis dependentes foram: dor clínica e nível de disposição (ambas adquiridas por escalas visuais analógicas), cinco escalas do inventário multidimensional da dor (gravidade da dor, interferência da dor nas atividades cotidianas, percepção de controle da vida, distúrbios emocionais e suporte familiar/social). Resultados: Com taxa de participação de 97%, as pacientes do grupo experimental apresentaram melhora significativa após o tratamento e nas avaliações seguintes. Esta melhora significativa do quadro clínico também foi constatada quando comparada à evolução das pacientes do grupocontrole. Por meio da análise das variâncias (2 × 3) nos dados da amostra tratada, e teste t de Student pareado para a população intent-to-treat, percebe-se que o grupo experimental apresenta redução significativa das dores (todos os p < 0,05). A melhora das pacientes durante o tratamento manteve-se inalterada até um ano após a alta. Conclusão: O programa da EIF permite a obtenção de melhora signi...
