Summary

Patients who have undergone COVID-19 infection often have long-term sequelae. One of the most prevalent sequelae is pain. The main objective of this research is to investigate the efficacy of Pain Informed Movement program in patients with post COVID-19 condition experiencing persistent pain. Through the implementation of this program, the investigators seek to determine whether such intervention can offer significant improvements in reducing pain intensity and interference, catastrophizing, kinesiophobia, and functionality of affected patients.

Interventions

Pain Informed Movement program

The patients included in the experimental group attended an 8-week Pain Informed Movement program in addition to standard medical care. The program was led by a physical therapist with experience in treating patients with chronic pain. This program consisted of 2 face-to-face sessions per week, and they were asked to complete two sessions at home weekly. The first face-to-face session was a group session with 3-6 participants, and the second face-to-face session was individual. Both sessions lasted approximately 1 h. In the group sessions, pain neuroscience education was conducted. In the individual sessions, an individualized functional exercise program was performed by each patient, as well as relaxation techniques. Patients were asked to perform the functional exercises and relaxation techniques at home. Participants were asked to record their compliance with the program and their progress.

OTHER

Standard medical care and leaflet education

In addition to standard medical care, patients assigned to this group received a leaflet with information about the main post COVID-19 condition symptoms. This is a control group that was not controlled or monitored by a therapist.
