Longitudinal Outcome Evaluations of Interdisciplinary Multimodal Pain Treatment Programs for Patients With Chronic Primary Musculoskeletal Pain: A Living Systematic Review
This LSR reaffirms the effectiveness of IMPT in improving physical and psychological outcomes in individuals with chronic primary pain, and expands the evidence base by incorporating HRQoL as a novel outcome. HRQoL improvement underscores the long-term effectiveness of IMPT in improving overall well-being. Highly tailored, individually delivered IMPT programs that integrate recent innovations and are under 30 h in duration appear most effective in reducing pain-related disability and improving health-related quality of life.
