In treating chronic pain, the main focus is often on diagnosis and treatment rather than life quality and everyday life. Several studies point to the fact that the interaction between the health professional and the patient can be improved by the individual patient being educated in taking responsibility for his/her own illness, and by involving the patient in decision making through training communication.\n\nGSD is an educational method, comprising 32 semi-structured reflection sheets inviting the patients in groups of 4 through 8 sessions of 150 minutes\' duration to reflect on the patient\'s own situation and to be active in co-operation with the nurses.\n\nA total of 192 patients will be included and randomized in either an intervention or in a control group. The difference between the two groups is measured by means of three questionnaires, SF-36, PAM and SOC, which are answered before and after the intervention as well as 6 months later.\n\nThe hypothesis is "using guided self-determination in the treatment of chronic pain patients will increase the life skills of the patients and thus their life quality in spite of pain".\n\nAn alliance is established between The Multidisciplinary Pain Clinic at Herlev Hospital and The Pain Clinic at Naestved Hospital as well as The Regional Pain Clinic at Koege Hospital to conduct this intervention and thus make the best possible use of interrelated knowledge within the issue.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 18 years and older, diagnosed with nonmalignant chronic pain\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* patients who do not read, write and understand the Danish language\n* patients with a known medical abuse\n* patients needing special psychological and/or psychiatric intervention\n* patients with health-related problems preventing them from participating in a group'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02084459', 'acronym': 'GSD', 'briefTitle': 'Guided Self-determination in the Treatment of Chronic Pain to Promote the Life Skills of the Patient', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Herlev Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'The Use of Guided Self-determination in the Treatment of Chronic Pain Patients Will Increase Life Skills and Thereby Life Quality of the Chronic Pain Patient', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'HEH201300702085'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control', 'description': 'Standard of care'}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Autonomy-supportive counselling (GSD)', 'description': "GSD, an educational method, comprising 32 semi-structured reflection sheets inviting the patients in groups of 4 through 8 sessions of 150 minutes' duration to reflect on the patient's own situation and to be active in co-operation with the nurses.", 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: Autonomy-supportive counselling (GSD)']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Autonomy-supportive counselling (GSD)', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': "GSD, an educational method, comprising 32 semi-structured reflection sheets inviting the patients in groups of 4 through 8 sessions of 150 minutes' duration to reflect on the patient's own situation and to be active in co-operation with the nurses.", 'armGroupLabels': ['Autonomy-supportive counselling (GSD)']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'DK-2730', 'city': 'Herlev', 'state': 'Danmark', 'country': 'Denmark', 'facility': 'Herlev Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 55.72366, 'lon': 12.43998}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Mette Husum, RN', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Herlev Hospital'}, {'name': 'Niels-Henrik Jensen, MD', 'role': 'STUDY_CHAIR', 'affiliation': 'Herlev Hospital'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Herlev Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Naestved Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Zealand University Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Nurse, project leader', 'investigatorFullName': 'Anne Pickering', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Herlev Hospital'}}}}
