The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a 2-week integrative medicine inpatient treatment in patients with chronic pain syndromes and the association of treatment success with patient-related process variables.Inpatients with chronic pain syndromes participating in a 2-week integrative medicine inpatient program were included. Patients' pain intensity, pain disability, pain perception, quality of life, depression, and perceived stress were measured on admission, discharge, and 6 months after discharge. Likewise process variables including ability and will to change, emotional/rational disease acceptance, mindfulness, life and health satisfaction, and easiness of life were assessed.A total of 310 inpatients (91% female, mean age 50.7?±?12.4 year, 26.5% low back pain, and 22.9% fibromyalgia) were included. Using mixed linear models, significant improvements in pain intensity, pain disability, pain perception, quality of life, depression, and perceived stress were found (all P?<?0.05). Ability to change and implementation, disease acceptance, mindfulness, life and health satisfaction, and light heartedness/easiness likewise improved (all P?<?0.05). Improved outcomes were associated with increases in process variables, mainly ability to change and implementation, disease acceptance, life and health satisfaction, and light heartedness/easiness (R = 0.03-0.40).Results of this study suggest that a 2-week integrative medicine inpatient treatment can benefit patients with chronic pain conditions. Functional improvements are associated with improved ability to change and implementation, disease acceptance, and satisfaction."],"journal":["Medicine"],"pagination":["e4152"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC5058862"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Integrative medicine for chronic pain: A cohort study using a process-outcome design in the context of a department for internal and integrative medicine."],"pmcid":["PMC5058862"],"pubmed_authors":["Langhorst J","Lauche R","Bussing A","Barcelona C","Dobos G","Bruning A","Cramer H","Saha FJ"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Integrative medicine for chronic pain: A cohort study using a process-outcome design in the context of a department for internal and integrative medicine.","description":"Integrative medicine inpatient treatment has been shown to improve physical and mental health in patients with internal medicine conditions.
