Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The primary aim of this study is to clarify the association between pain self-efficacy and objectively measured, accelerometer-based physical activity, distinguished into moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and light physical activity, in patients with chronic pain. The secondary aim is to examine whether pain catastrophizing plays a mediating role in the association between pain self-efficacy and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity.

Developmental phase



Assessment

Primary outcomes

Daily time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (3.0 METs or more) and light physical activity (1.5 to 2.9 METs), measured with a triaxial accelerometer (Active style Pro HJA-750C; Omron Healthcare Co., Ltd., Kyoto, Japan).

Key secondary outcomes

Pain self-efficacy (Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, PSEQ), pain catastrophizing (Pain Catastrophizing Scale, PCS), kinesiophobia (Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, TSK), pain-related disability (Pain Disability Assessment Scale, PDAS), anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, HADS), and pain intensity (Numerical Rating Scale, NRS).

Other related information

In this non-interventional cross-sectional study, participants wore a triaxial accelerometer (Active style Pro HJA-750C; Omron Healthcare Co., Ltd., Kyoto, Japan) at the waist for at least two weeks. Data were considered valid if the device was worn for 600 minutes or more per day on at least four days. From these valid data, we calculated daily step counts and the time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (3.0 METs or more), light-intensity physical activity (1.5 to 2.9 METs), and sedentary behavior (1.5 METs or less). Additionally, self-administered questionnaires were used to assess pain self-efficacy (Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire [PSEQ]), pain catastrophizing (Pain Catastrophizing Scale [PCS]), kinesiophobia (Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia [TSK]), pain-related disability (Pain Disability Assessment Scale [PDAS]), anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale [HADS]), and pain intensity (Numeric Rating Scale [NRS]).
