Abstract

Daniela Tavares

Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs) have gained increasing attention in the management of chronic pain. This systematic review aims to evaluate the impact of MBIs on chronic pain management. A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases for relevant studies published up to [insert date]. Studies meeting inclusion criteria were assessed for quality and data were synthesized using a narrative approach. A total of [insert number] studies were included in the review. Results indicate that MBIs demonstrate promise in reducing pain intensity, improving pain-related disability, and enhancing psychological well-being among individuals with chronic pain. However, heterogeneity in intervention protocols and outcome measures across studies suggests the need for standardized approaches and further research to elucidate mechanisms of action.
