Brief summary (from the registry)

Chronic pain concernes one in four adults in Belgium. Because of the psychological and social repercussions, a biopsychosocial approach is necessary in order to improve the quality of life chronic pain patients. Non-pharmacological techniques such as hypnosis, self-care learning, music-therapy and psycho-education are gaining more and more interest in the scientific field. However, a major problem in clinical research is patient dropout. To our knowledge, no study has investigated dropout rates in hypnosis clinical research. The aim of this study is, therefore, to better understand the predictors of dropout in several non-pharmacological treatments in chronic pain management.
