Thirty Minutes to Transform Care: A Mixed-Methods Study on Brief Psychosomatic Education for Unexplained Symptoms

A short, 30-minute psychosomatic training session can substantially enhance clinicians' communication competencies for MUPS. Even brief, well-structured interventions may help clinicians better recognize somatic symptoms, validate patient experiences, and apply biopsychosocial principles. Embedding such training into medical education and continuing professional development programs provides a feasible strategy to address communication gaps and potentially improve care for patients with unexplained symptoms.
