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 a cognitive behavioral principles-based treatment program in fear avoidance beliefs, disability, pain catastrophizing and pain interference.

Conditions

  • Post-COVID-19 Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Cognitive behavioral principles-based treatment program

The treatment protocol had a total duration of 6 weeks. Two sessions were conducted each week, the first being a group session lasting 1.5 hours and the second an individual session lasting 45 minutes. During the group sessions, emotional disclosure and sharing of the experiences of patients with post COVID-19 syndrome were encouraged. During the individual sessions, a strong relationship was developed between the patient and the healthcare professional, with the healthcare professional helping the patient develop self-efficacy, thought monitoring, helpful self-talk, and reflection on changes in activity levels throughout the program.

OTHER

Control intervention

Patients received an informational brochure in a consultation with a health professional. The brochure explained the importance of physical activity to improve the health condition of these patients. Patients had the opportunity to ask any questions to the healthcare professional.
