Abstract

Aim

To explore the efficacy of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) on chronic pain in terms of functioning; and to identify the most promising modes and patterns for implementing ACT.

Design

Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Methods

We will include randomized controlled trials which focus on the efficacy of ACT on chronic pain conditions with functioning as the primary outcome. Seven databases have been searched and grey literature will also be systematically searched for. Eligible studies will be screened. The newly revised Cochrane risk of bias tool will be used to assess the quality of the included studies. Data will be extracted, and meta-analyses will be performed within specific condition groups of chronic pain. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses will be employed to identify the efficacious modes and patterns for implementing the therapy. Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach will be applied to reach a convincing conclusion. The study has been funded since July 2018.

Discussion

This systematic review aims to explore the efficacy of ACT for chronic pain on functioning based on the latest evidence. The most promising manners will be identified for designing and delivering the therapy. An accurate, transparent, and standardized review process is expected by adhering to the instructions of relevant guidelines.

Impact

Chronic pain is prevalent worldwide and reduced functioning is one of the leading consequences. With the anticipated evidence of high level, this research attempts to examine the role of acceptance and commitment therapy, a promising psychological intervention, in the management of chronic pain for improving individual's functioning status. The systematic review may contribute to a more convincing and targeted conclusion compared with the existing studies of its kind.

摘要

目标

探讨慢性功能性疼痛的接受与实现疗法(ACT)的疗效,并找出最有希望实施接受与实现疗法的模式和方式。

设计

系统评价和荟萃分析

方法

我们将包括随机对照试验,侧重于慢性功能性疼痛的接受与实现疗法的疗效作为主要结果。已搜索了七个数据库,还将系统性地搜索灰色文献。将筛选符合条件的研究。新修订的Cochrane偏差风险工具将用于评估纳入研究的质量。将提取数据,并在慢性疼痛的特定组内进行荟萃分析。使用Meta-回归和子组分析确定实施治疗的有效模式和方式。将采用评定、开发和评估方法对建议进行分级,以得出令人信服的结论。这项研究自2018年7月起获得资助。

讨论

本系统综述旨在探讨慢性功能性疼痛的接受与实现疗法的疗效。并确定最有希望的方式用于设计和提供治疗。遵守相关指南的指示开展准确、透明和标准化的审查过程。

影响

慢性疼痛在世界范围内普遍存在,功能减退是主要后果之一。在高水平的预期证据下,本研究试图探讨接受与承诺疗法在慢性疼痛治疗中改善个体功能状态的作用。与现有的同类研究相比,系统的综述可能有助于得出更有说服力和针对性的结论。
