Multicomponent Pain Self-Management in Adults With Haemophilic Arthropathy
Multicomponent Pain Self-Management Programme in Adults With Haemophilic Arthropathy: Protocol for a Randomised Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Background: Haemophilic arthropathy is associated with chronic pain, functional limitation and impaired quality of life. Pain interference may also be influenced by cognitive, emotional and behavioural factors. Evidence for structured multicomponent pain self-management programmes specifically tailored to adults with haemophilic arthropathy remains limited. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a structured multicomponent pain self-management programme, compared with usual care, in reducing pain interference in adults with haemophilia A or B, haemophilic arthropathy and chronic pain. Methods: Approximately 70 adults will be individually randomised in a 1:1 ratio to a multicomponent pain self-management programme or usual care. The intervention will comprise three 60-minute face-to-face group sessions delivered over approximately 6-8 weeks. The programme will integrate pain education, emotional-regulation training and cognitive-behavioural self-management strategies. Assessments will be performed at baseline, immediately after the intervention and at 6 months. The primary outcome will be the between-group difference in change in Brief Pain Inventory-Interference score from baseline to 6 months.
