Detailed Description

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

The study will use a Delphi methodology to investigate the challenges faced by patients with myofascial pain syndrome in Turkey. A panel of 20 experts with diverse backgrounds in healthcare and pain management will be selected. The study will be conducted in three rounds, with the first round consisting of open-ended questions to identify key themes related to the disease burden, patient journey, and unmet needs. In the second round, experts will rate the importance of each theme, and in the third round, they will review the results of the previous round and provide additional feedback. Data will be analyzed using content analysis and descriptive statistics to identify the areas of consensus and divergence among the experts.
