Psychosocial predictors and correlates for chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP)—a systematic review.
Abstract
Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a serious problem. Incidence as high as 50% has been reported, depending on type of surgery undergone. Because the etiology of chronic pain is grounded in the bio-psychosocial model, physical, psychological, and social factors are implicated in the development of CPSP. Biomedical factors such as pre-operative pain, severe acute post-operative pain, modes of anesthesia, and surgical approaches have been extensively examined, therefore this systematic review focuses on psychosocial elements. A systematic search was performed using the PubMed, PsychINFO, Embase, and Cochrane Databases. Fifty relevant publications were selected from this search, in which psychosocial predictors for and correlates to CPSP were identified. The level of evidence was assessed for each study, and corresponding score points were awarded for ease of comparison. The grade of association with CPSP for each predictor/correlate was then determined. Depression, psychological vulnerability, stress, and late return to work showed likely correlation with CPSP (grade of association=1). Other factors were determined to have either unlikely (grade of association=3) or inconclusive (grade of association=2) correlations. In addition, results were examined in light of the type of surgery undergone. This review is intended as a first step to develop an instrument for identifying patients at high risk for CPSP, to optimize clinical pain management.

In the citing paper
“However, a preventive intervention could target psychological factors, which are both modifiable, robust, and potent predictors of CPSP and fatigue [20,24].”
In the citing paper
“CPSP is now grounded in the bio-psycho-social model, where psychological and social factors contribute to biological factors in the development of chronic pain [20,21].”
In the citing paper
“Other significant predictors involve depression, stress, and optimism [12,20,27].”
In the citing paper
“Most patients are provided little more than pharmacotherapy for pain after surgery and are generally offered no intervention targeting the psychological vulnerability factors that are associated with a greater probability of pain chronicity, including pain catastrophizing,8 sensitivity to pain traumatization,9 anxiety and depressive symptoms.10”
In the citing paper
“Hinrichs-Rocker did a systematic review on the psychological predictors and correlates for CPSP, and found that depression, psychological vulnerability, stress and late return to work showed a probable correlation with CPSP [47].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
