SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Psychosocial interventions for chronic pain and comorbid prescription opioid use disorders: A narrative review of the literature.
Journal of Opioid Management 2018 September
OBJECTIVE: Opioid misuse in the context of chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) is a multifaceted and complex issue. As opioid misuse and corresponding rates of addiction and overdose deaths exceed epidemic proportions, there is an urgent need for research in this area. The objective of this review is to evaluate the literature addressing psychosocial interventions targeting CNCP and prescription opioid misuse.
DESIGN: A systematic search of PubMed, MEDLINE, PsychINFO, ClinicalTrials.gov was conducted to identify studies evaluating psychosocial interventions targeting CNCP and prescription opioid misuse. The review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.
RESULTS: 56 peer-reviewed research articles from 1993 to July, 2016, which included studies of psychosocial interventions for CNCP and opioid use disorders. Studies that examined psychosocial interventions for CNCP, treatment modalities included: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and mindfulness-based stress reduction, and chronic pain self-management programs. The psychosocial interventions for opioid misuse included: CBT and relapse prevention, motivational enhancement therapy and stages of change, contingency management, and self-help and peer support-based groups.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this review offer clinical insight and reinforce the importance of psychosocial interventions in CNCP and opioid use disorders. However, little empirical data are available to guide practitioners in treating patients with CNCP who misuse opioid medications, and thus future research on integrated approaches, is needed.
