Abstract

Background: Chronic pain and mental disorders are common reasons for long term sick leave. The study objective was to evaluate the efficacy of a multidisciplinary assessment and treatment program including acceptance and commitment therapy (TEAM) and stand-alone acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compared with treatment as usual (Control) on health outcomes in women on long-term sick leave. Method: Participants ( n = 308), women of working age on long term sick leave due to musculoskeletal pain and/or common mental disorders, were randomized to TEAM ( n = 102), ACT ( n = 102) or Control ( n = 104). Participants in the multidisciplinary assessment treatment program received ACT, but also medical assessment, occupational therapy and social counselling. The second intervention included ACT only. Health outcomes were assessed over 12 months using adjusted linear mixed models. The results showed significant interaction effects for both ACT and TEAM compared with Control in anxiety (ACT [ p < 0.05]; TEAM [ p < 0.001]), depression (ACT [ p < 0.001]; TEAM [ p < 0.001]) and general well-being (ACT [ p < 0.05]; TEAM [ p < 0.001]). For self-rated pain, there was a significant interaction effect in favour of ACT ( p < 0.05), and for satisfaction with life in favour of TEAM ( p < 0.001). Conclusion: Both ACT alone and multidisciplinary assessment and treatment including ACT were superior to treatment as usual in clinical outcomes.
