Brief summary (from the registry)
The lack of pain specialists limits users' access to non-pharmacological therapeutic pain control strategies. In this context, digital health programs can reduce the inequity of access to interventions, contribute to the self-management of chronic musculoskeletal conditions, reduce the burden on primary care and can help to reorganize the flow of referral of individuals in the health care network. The aim of this study will be to analyze the implementation and health outcomes of three online pain neuroscience education strategies in individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain. This is a hybrid type III effectiveness-implementation randomized controlled trial. Individuals with ≥18 years old with chronic musculoskeletal pain will be recruited from primary health care in the city of Guarapuava/PR/Brazil and referred to the health care network for conventional physical therapy in addition to the online pain neuroscience education program (EducaDor). The EducaDor program will be delivered in 3 modalities: 1) synchronous online; 2) asynchronous videos; 3) Interactive e-book. The implementation outcomes evaluated will be: acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, adoption, fidelity, penetration, sustainability and costs; and health outcomes will include: pain, functionality, quality of life, sleep, physical activity, self-efficacy, adverse effects, prognostic and risk groups. The evaluations will be done at baseline, after the end of the interventions and follow-up of 6 months.
