Area of Science:

Orthopedics
Rehabilitation Medicine
Pain Management

Background:

Millions in Germany suffer from chronic pain, influenced by multifactorial causes including psychosocial risk factors.
National guidelines recommend early screening of psychosocial factors for tailored chronic pain treatment.
Current rehabilitation structures in Germany struggle to integrate these screening and individualized care approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

To implement and evaluate an individualized therapy and aftercare program for orthopedic patients within German Pension Insurance rehabilitation.
To compare the success and sustainability of this new program against the existing standard aftercare.

Main Methods:

A multicenter randomized controlled trial involving 1204 patients across six orthopedic rehabilitation clinics.
Intervention group receives individualized, home-based rehabilitation aftercare with psychosocial risk screening and tailored unimodal or multimodal therapy.
Control group receives regular outpatient rehabilitation aftercare; outcomes assessed via four surveys, focusing on Characteristic Pain Intensity and Disability Score (CPG).

Main Results:

The study is ongoing; expected results indicate improvements in pain, work ability, patient compliance, and acceptance for the intervention group.
The individualized program is anticipated to be more effective than the standard aftercare approach.

Conclusions:

The individualized rehabilitation aftercare program is expected to enhance patient outcomes in chronic pain management.
This approach aims to provide personalized care, particularly benefiting patients residing far from clinical centers.
