Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This secondary analysis of the RESTORE trial examines whether Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT) reduces opioid dispensing for chronic low back pain over 12 months. The study compared CFT alone, CFT with biofeedback, and usual care among 301 participants who consented to pharmaceutical data tracking. Results indicated no statistically significant differences in opioid doses or usage proportions between the intervention groups and usual care. The authors conclude that while CFT improves pain and disability, it does not necessarily reduce opioid use, suggesting specific interventions may be needed for that goal.
