The clinical effectiveness of a myofeedback-based teletreatment service in patients with non-specific neck and shoulder pain: a randomized controlled trial

Abstract: We investigated the effectiveness and efficiency of a four-week myofeedback-based teletreatment service in subjects with non-specific neck and shoulder pain. Subjects were recruited in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands and randomly allocated to the intervention or conventional care. Subjects in the intervention group received four weeks of myofeedback training. Pain intensity and disability were evaluated by questionnaires at baseline, immediately after four weeks of treatment and at follow-up 3 months late… Show more

“…In addition, tele-monitoring and tele-treatment services put older adults in the driver seat regarding their own health which fits the current trend to put more focus on self-management and patient-centricity. Earlier studies showed that tele-treatment at home is feasible and acceptable to patients and caregivers and can improve their outcomes [810]. The Chain of trust (http://www.chainoftrust.eu) shows that both patients and health professionals are willing to benefit from a better access to ICT services.…”

“…The Pain PCS was developed and evaluated in various studies using the DeChant framework (DeChant et al, 1996) and its results are described in various papers (Huis in't Veld et al, 2008;Kosterink et al, 2010;Sandsjo et al, 2010). DeChant et al (1996) proposed a framework, a staged approach, for telemedicine evaluation studies in which the type of assessment is tailored to the development life cycle of the technology.…”

“…Eighty percent of the subjects reported a reduction in pain intensity and disability directly after end of treatment. Kosterink et al (2010) and Sandsjo et al (2010) performed a large scale randomized controlled trial into the Pain PCS for patients with non-specific neck and shoulder pain and work related musculoskeletal neck shoulder pain, respectively. Kosterink included 71 subjects (36 in the PCS group and 35 in the conventional care group) and showed that the Pain PCS was at least as effective clinically as conventional care.…”

“…The power calculation, based on the results of a comparable tele-rehabilitation service [14,15], indicated that at least 26 patients with CLBP and 32 patients with PD should be included in each group. The appropriate ethics committee approved the study.…”
