摘要

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) comprise a wide range of conditions

associated with an enormous pain and impaired mobility

and are affecting people’s lives and work. Management of musculoskeletal disorders typically involves a multidisciplinary team approach. Positive findings have been found in previous studies evaluating the effectiveness of complementary therapies

though little attention has been paid to evaluating of the effectiveness of integrated packages of care combining conventional and complementary approaches for musculoskeletal conditions in a National Health Service (NHS) setting. To determine the feasibility of all aspects of a pragmatic observational study designed: (1) to evaluate the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of integrated treatments for MSDs in an integrated NHS hospital in the UK; (2) to determine the acceptability of the study design and research process to patients; (3) to explore patients’ expectation and experience of receiving integrated treatments. This is an observational feasibility study

with 1-year recruitment and 1-year follow-up

conducted in Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine

University College London Hospital Trust

UK. All eligible patients with MSDs newly referred to the hospital were included in the study. Interventions are integrated packages of care (conventional and complementary) as currently provided in the hospital. SF-36™ Health Survey

short form Brief Pain Inventory

Visual Analogue Scale

and modified Client Service Receipt Inventory will be assessed at 4/5 time points. Semi-structured interview/focus group will be carried out before treatment

and 1 year after commence of treatment. We intend to conduct a pragmatic observational study of integrated medical treatment of MSDs at a public sector hospital. It will inform the design of a future trial including recruitment

retention

suitability of the outcome measures and patients experiences.
