About this trial
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of a 12-week, home-based telerehabilitation program for adults with fibromyalgia (FM) combining AI-guided exercise with Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE). Fifty participants will be randomized (1:1) to the digital intervention or usual care. The primary outcome is change in pain intensity from baseline to post-intervention (week 13 ± 7 days), with secondary outcomes including physical function and health-related quality of life. Outcome assessors, the principal investigator, and the study statistician will be blinded to group allocation until database lock.
