Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Two separate double double blind, randomized, parallel groups, two-arm, 8 week clinical trials with 6-moth follow-up were conducted using identical inclusion/exclusion criteria and assessment batteries. In both studies patients had chronic low back pain of non-neoplastic origin. In both studies patients were randomized to one of two conditions, either a Cognitive Behavioral-based Therapy or a control condition, a supportive (Rogerian) psychotherapy. Both the cognitive-behavioral and supportive psychotherapy conditions consisted of home-based, telephone supported treatment, with 10 hours of contact time delivered over 8 weeks. In the first study (Study 1) the behavioral and Rogerian interventions were delivered by a licensed psychologist. In the second (Study 2) the interventions were delivered by a medical primary care nurse.
