About this study

Official title: Medical Benefit Evaluation of Ambulatory Activity Combining Rehabilitation and Therapeutic Education, Using an Intelligent Electric Bike for the Health, for the Effort Rehabilitation and the Quality of Life Improvement for Patients Suffering of Moderate Fibromyalgia.

The aim of this study is to decrease the impact of the fibromyalgia on the daily quality of life of the patients suffering of moderate fibromyalgia at 6 months by the practice of an adapted physical activity coupled with therapeutic education workshop.

Read the detailed description

Fibromyalgia is chronic pain syndrome expressed as fluctuacting musculotendinous or articular pain and chronic tiredness. Among the non-pharmacological treatments, apart the "psychological" accompanying, the EULAR (European League Against Reumatism) recommends the physical activity in first intention. Thus, physical reconditioning has an important place in fibromyalgia. Aerobic conditioning or reconditioning programs for effort induce for some patients a benefit on quality of life, tiredness and pain. In France, these programmes are mostly carried out in "follow-up and rehabilitation" type care structures.

Outdoor exercise re-training with the Intelligent Electric Bike for Health combined with therapeutic education sessions are proposed in the study. These activities, adapted to each group and patient, can best achieve the objective in an ambulatory format closer to the patient's daily life.
