“…The inclusion of PPIE in our research design, conduct, and analysis was a key strength, ensuring that stakeholder views and perspectives were represented 52,53 , and played a key role in analysis and design of survey questions. A strength of our design was the validation of our findings through the creation and use of a survey in the pain community, which confirmed the clinical relevance of our findings, and the importance of qualitative research on pain 16,17 .…”

“…Despite the increasing number of qualitative studies on pain, the lived experience of pain remains a blind spot in the field because qualitative inquiry continues to be underrepresented in the pain literature in relation to quantitative approaches, which are underpinned by the predominant biomedical approach to pain management. In understanding the complexity of the lived experience of pain, qualitative research is an indispensable tool 16,17 .…”

“…Much of what is known today about the meaning and personal experiences of pain, has been achieved through qualitative research, which investigates important aspects of the pain experience that are relatively inaccessible to other approaches (e.g., quantitative approaches) 16,17 . Qualitative literature examining various aspects of living with an illness or chronic condition has increased dramatically in the last few years, with researchers finding that the number of relevant qualitative synthesis publications had doubled between 2005– 2008 18 .…”

Background: Although multiple measures of the causes and consequences of chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP) are available and can inform pain management, no quantitative summary of these measures can describe the meaning of pain for a patient. The lived experience of pain tends to be a blind spot in pain management. This study aimed to: (1) integrate qualitative research investigating the lived experience of a range of CNCP conditions; (2) establish common qualitative themes in CNCP experience; and (3) evaluate the relevance of our results through a survey questionnaire based on these themes, administered across the United Kingdom. Methods: Six bibliographic databases were searched from inception to February 2021 to identify Qualitative Evidence Syntheses (QES) that investigated the lived experience of CNCP and its impact on everyday life and activities. Themes and trends were derived by thematic qualitative analysis in collaboration with two patient and public involvement representatives through two workshops. The output from these workshops helped inform the creation of twenty survey statements. Results: The research team identified and screened 1,323 titles, and considered 86 abstracts, including 20 in the final review. Eight themes were developed from the study findings: (1) my pain gives rise to negative emotions; (2) changes to my life and to my self; (3) adapting to my new normal; (4) effects of my pain management strategies; (5) hiding and showing my pain; (6) medically explaining my pain; (7) relationships to those around me; and (8) working while in pain. Each theme gave rise to one or two survey questions. The survey was shared with members of the UK pain community over a two-week period in November 2021, and was completed by 1,219 people, largely confirming the above themes. Conclusion/implications: This study provides a validated summary of the lived experience of CNCP. It highlights the adverse nature, complications, and consequences of living with CNCP in the UK, and the multiple shortcomings in the ways in which pain is addressed by others in the UK. Our findings are consistent with published meta-ethnographies on chronic non-malignant musculoskeletal pain, and chronic low-back pain. Despite the underrepresentation of qualitative research in the pain literature compared to quantitative approaches, for understanding the complexity of the lived experience of pain, qualitative research is an essential tool.

Penelitian kepustakaan merupakan salah satu penelitian yang merupakan bagian dari penelitian kualitatif (Tutelman & Webster, 2020).

The theory of opportunity arises from human activity which inspires bettors who try to find information on the chances of winning bets. Scientists who also like to play bets, experts make the theory of probability as a basic study of statistics and conduct mathematical analysis from a review of game examples. In this case, examine the toss of coins. To determine the probability of an event occurring in a coin toss, first calculate the number of sample points using the formula 2n where n is the number of sample spaces. In this case, the concept of the binomial theorem is used to determine the probability of an event occurring in the toss of a coin. The binomial theorem is very helpful in determining the probability of an event. Because it is very easy to determine the probability of an event is very rarely done.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is known to improve chronic pain management. However, past studies revealed only small to moderate benefits in short-term results, and long-term follow-up studies are lacking. This study aimed to follow an integrated CBT program’s effectiveness 1.5 years after its completion. This observational study was the follow-up on the data collected from our CBT sessions conducted under 3 different studies in 2018 to 2019. Seven assessment items (Numerical Rating Scale, Pain Catastrophizing Scale [PCS], Pain Disability Assessment Scale [PDAS], Patient Health Questionnaire-9 items, Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7, European quality of life 5-dimensions 5-level, and Beck Depression Inventory [BDI]) were statistically analyzed. Thematic analysis was conducted in semi structured interviews. PCS (F = 6.52, P = .003), PDAS (F = 5.68, P = .01), European quality of life 5-dimensions 5-level (F = 3.82, P = .03), and BDI (F = 4.61, P = .01) exhibited significant changes (P < .05), confirmed by pairwise t test, revealing a moderate to large effect size. From post-treatment to follow-up, all scores showed no significant changes (P > .1). In the qualitative study, the analysis revealed 3 subthemes: “Autonomy,” “Understanding of yourself and pain,” and “Acceptance of pain.” Our study suggests that integrated CBT may reduce the scores of PCS, PDAS and BDI, and this effect lasts for at least 1 year. Identified themes support the relevance of mitigative factors in managing chronic pain.
