Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a randomized parallel study (two arms) with blinded outcome assessments. The participants' recruitment will be done by a non-probabilistic sampling resulting from invitations to Basic Health Units. The sample size estimation indicated 164 participants. Participants will be allocated, by means of a randomization process, to one of two groups (82 for each group): Experimental Group (multimodal circuit exercise) or Control Group (cycle of multidisciplinary lectures on pain ). The primary outcomes are global chronic pain intensity and global functional disability scores. The secondary outcomes are functional mobility and cardiorespiratory capacity. All analyses will be processed using the RStudio software. The differences will be considered statistically significant when a 2-tailed p-value is less than 5% (p \< 0.05). The statistical analysis will follow the intention to treat. Discussion: This study will discuss the effects of multimodal circuit exercise on global chronic pain intensity and global body functional disability scores. The hypothesize is that multimodal exercises will reduce musculoskeletal chronic pain and disability in older adults to the same extent as traditional supervised and structured exercises.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Experimental Group

Will received multimodal circuit exercise group.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Multimodal circuit exercise

Intervention Type OTHER

A structured and supervised multimodal exercise circuit twice a week, under 12 weeks program. The circuit workout program consists of 8 exercises, divided into motor coordination, balance, strength, and aerobic exercises. The exercises will be employed in a reserved room inside of the Basic Health Units. The sessions of exercises will last approximately 50 minutes,

Control Group

Will received multidisciplinary lectures on pain and usual care provided by the Basic Health Units.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Multidisciplinary lectures

Intervention Type OTHER

Multidisciplinary lectures on pain and usual care provided by the Basic Health Units. A cycle of multidisciplinary lectures on pain will be offered by professionals in physical education, nursing, physiotherapy, medicine, psychology and social work that will take place in the Basic Health Units every 15 days.
