Interdisciplinary assessment-oriented treatment of fibromyalgia: a case report

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Patients with fibromyalgia (FM) have often tried many outpatient treatments, and breakthrough pain frequently stops them from performing everyday tasks and participating in society. FM-pain that has become chronic, therefore, affects quality of life. This case study describes the administration of interdisciplinary inpatient pain therapy due to a primary diagnosis of fibromyalgia with integrated complementary medicine. The female patient, who had several concomitant disorders and had been suffering from pain for many years, benefited from the holistic treatment approach in terms of a reduction in pain and an improvement in physical functions and mental health. The ability to have a positive effect on pain symptoms in the longer term is essential. Compliance with the treatments used should also be improved, so that a healthier lifestyle and better pain management can continue after discharge from hospital. These results are supported by other study results and should provide the impetus for major studies to evaluate holistic pain therapies in FM.
