[Juvenile fibromyalgia syndrome].

Der Schmerz 2008 June
OBJECTIVE: The aim was to develop a guideline for diagnostic procedures and treatment of juvenile fibromyalgia syndrome (JFMS) in cooperation with 10 German medical and psychological associations and 2 patient self-help groups.

METHODS: A systematic literature search, including all controlled studies evaluating diagnosis and treatment of JFMS, was performed in the Cochran Collaboration Reviews (1993-12/2006), Medline (1980-12/2006), PsychInfo (1966-12/2006) and Scopus (1980-12/2006). Levels of evidence were assigned according to the classification system of the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine. Grading of the strengths of recommendations was performed according to the German program for disease management guidelines. Standardized procedures to reach a consensus on recommendations were used.

RESULTS: Pain in children/adolescents involving several body areas and lasting >3 months without an obvious somatic cause is called JFMS or pain amplification syndrome. Therapeutically, a multidisciplinary concept with psychotherapy and physiotherapy, relaxation techniques and patient education is recommended.

CONCLUSION: These guideline will contribute to a better recognition and standardized care of patients with JFMS and facilitate clinical studies.
