Abstract

Purpose: The study aimed to explore the effect of a pain neuroscience education (PNE) course on provider burnout, attitudes and beliefs about pain and confidence in treating patients with pain.

Subjects: 209 healthcare professionals taking a PNE course.

Methods: The healthcare providers were surveyed using the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory, Pain Attitudes and Beliefs Scale, and the Pain Care Confidence Scale before attending a PNE course and then at 1-week and 6-months post training.

Results: A small effect (Cohen's d = 0.180, p = 0.024) was found for females at 1-week post-training for the burnout exhaustion score; no other significant effects were found related to burnout. Pain Attitudes and Beliefs Biomedical and Biopsychosocial subscales had significant changes at 1-week (p < 0.001 and p = 0.005) and at 6-months (p < 0.001 and p = 0.005), respectively, moving toward a more biopsychological approach for care. Pain confidence scores significantly improved at both time periods (p < 0.001 and p < 0.001).

Conclusion: A significant finding was that the pain education course positively changed the healthcare providers' pain attitudes and beliefs along with confidence in pain care, but with minimal to no change in burnout scores.

对医疗保健提供者进行疼痛教育后，倦怠、疼痛态度和信念以及治疗疼痛患者信心的变化。

目的：探讨疼痛神经科学教育（PNE）课程对医护人员职业倦怠、疼痛态度和信念以及治疗疼痛患者信心的影响。对象：209名参加PNE课程的医疗保健专业人员。方法：采用Oldenburg倦怠量表、疼痛态度与信念量表和疼痛护理信心量表对医护人员进行PNE培训前和培训后1周和6个月的调查。结果：女性在训练后1周的倦怠倦怠得分有较小的影响（Cohen’s d = 0.180, p = 0.024）；没有发现与倦怠相关的其他显著影响。生物医学和生物心理社会亚量表分别在1周（p < 0.001和p = 0.005）和6个月（p < 0.001和p = 0.005）时发生了显著变化，向更多的生物心理治疗方法迈进。疼痛信心评分在两个时间段均显著提高（p < 0.001和p < 0.001）。结论：一个显著的发现是疼痛教育课程积极改变了医疗保健提供者的疼痛态度和信念以及对疼痛护理的信心，但对倦怠评分的影响很小或没有变化。
