Acceptance and commitment therapy for chronic pain: protocol of a systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis

DiscussionThis collaborative meta-analysis of individual participant data from randomized controlled trials of ACT for chronic pain versus control conditions will demonstrate how the known benefits of ACT for chronic pain vary across different subtypes of the chronic pain population. The results of the meta-analyses will be based on a comprehensive search of multiple databases and will help to inform future clinical trials and decision-making on the use of ACT in chronic pain and improve the quality, design, and reporting of future trials in this field.Systematic review registrationPROSPERO CRD42019120901.
