Pain Neuroscience Education for Depression (PNEdepress)

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This study will look at the effects of Pain Neuroscience Education on a Depression outcome tool in patients with chronic low back pain.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Chronic Low-back Pain Depression Other: PNE edcuation Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Pain and depression have been shown to be interrelated, especially chronic pain: people in chronic pain develop depression and people with depression develop chronic pain. In light of this coexistence it is not surprising that current best-evidence for depression and chronic pain shows significant overlap which includes primarily some type of cognitive intervention, aerobic exercise, and skilled delivery of medication including selective-serotonin-reuptake-inhibitors and/or membrane stabilizers. Current best-evidence regarding musculoskeletal pain provides strong support for Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) to positively influence pain ratings, dysfunction, and limitations in movement, pain knowledge and healthcare utilization. Additionally, PNE has shown to powerfully influence psychosocial issues that powerfully influence pain and depression: fear-avoidance and pain catastrophization. Evidence is lacking in whether PNE could also influence depression ratings. The purpose of this study is to examine the immediate effect of PNE on pain, function, and depressive symptoms (using the Patient Health Questionnaire - PHQ-9) in patients attending PT for chronic low back pain (LBP).

This will be a pre- and post-intervention convenience sample of consecutive patients with chronic LBP (pain > 6 months) meeting the inclusion criteria, attending outpatient PT. On initial examination, intake data and information will be collected prior to PNE and immediately following PNE.

Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Intervention Model Description: This will be a pre- and post-intervention convenience sample of consecutive patients with chronic LBP (pain > 6 months) meeting the inclusion criteria, attending outpatient PT. On initial examination, intake data and information will be collected prior to PNE and immediately following PNE.

Masking Description: No other parties will be masked.
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Pain Neuroscience Education for Depression
Actual Study Start Date : June 1, 2019
Estimated Primary Completion Date : September 1, 2019
Estimated Study Completion Date : October 1, 2019
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: PNE education
All subjects will be tested before and after receiving PNE education
Other: PNE edcuation
The PNE session will last 30 minutes and will be delivered in a one-on-one educational format with a clinician using prepared images, drawings and metaphors. The 30-minute PNE session was chosen to reflect a clinically meaningful intervention in a typical allocated time frame in clinical practice. The content of the PNE is described in detail elsewhere, using a metaphors to explain various aspects of pain including sensitization of the peripheral and central nervous system (sensitive alarm system metaphor); spreading pain (nosy neighbors metaphor); increases problems with focus and concentration (brain meeting metaphor) and difficulty with fatigue and sleep (lion metaphor).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Low back pain rating [ Time Frame: within a single, 90 minute session ]
    Numeric Pain Rating Scale for Back Pain (0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain). The minimal detectable change (MDC) for the NPRS for low back pain is reported to be 2.0.

  2. Pain Catastrophization Scale [ Time Frame: within a single, 90 minute session ]
    The PCS is a self-report questionnaire assessing inappropriate coping strategies and catastrophic thinking about pain and injury. on a 13-item, 5-point Likert scale with higher scores indicating elevated levels of catastrophizing.

  3. revised Pain Neurophysiology Questionnaire - rNPQ [ Time Frame: within a single, 90 minute session ]
    The NPQ measures the neurophysiology knowledge of patients and healthcare personnel. The original NPQ is a 19-item questionnaire requesting 'true'; 'false'; or 'not sure' answers to statements, with higher scores indicating more correct answers.

  4. Patient Health Questionnaire - PHQ-9 [ Time Frame: within a single, 90 minute session ]
    The PHQ-9 is the nine item depression scale
