Multidisciplinary Intervention for Self-Manegement of Pain in Fibromylagia: A Mixed Method Study

Abstract

BACKGROUNDFibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic disease that results in an important compromise in quality of life, with no single effective treatment. Therefore, in addition to medications, it demands multidisciplinary care that includes understanding the disease and activities aimed at physical and psychological well-being. In this way, the aim of the present study was to evaluate a group multidisciplinary intervention for self-management of chronic pain in patients with FM in a public health secondary attention service.
