Efficacy of Internet‐Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT) on Pain Symptoms and Sleep Quality Improvement in Chronic Pain Patients: A Meta‐Analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials
Overview
This meta-analysis of nine randomized controlled trials evaluates the impact of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) on chronic pain and sleep quality. The study reports that iCBT significantly alleviates pain symptoms and improves sleep quality immediately following intervention, with specific effectiveness noted for adults aged 18 and older. However, long-term follow-up data indicated no statistically significant differences between the intervention and control groups for pain outcomes.
