Supplementary material: Impact of COVID-19 on chronic pain structures: data from French national survey

These are peer-reviewed supplementary materials for the article 'Impact of COVID-19 on chronic pain structures: data from French national survey' published in the Journal of Comparative Effectiveness Research.Supplementary data: Translated survey.Aims: The authors evaluated the impact of the first COVID-19 pandemic wave on French chronic pain structures (CPS). Methods: An online survey assessed CPS resource allocation, workflow and perceived impact on patient care. Results: All CPS workflow was severely impacted by the reallocation of 42% of specialists. In-person appointments were cancelled by 72% of participants. Follow-up was maintained in 91% of participants (telemedicine). Skills in end-of-life decision-making/counseling were rarely solicited. The perceived impact of the crisis on the experience of patients was high (eight out of ten), with a significant increase in access-to-care delay. Conclusion: CPS maintained patient follow-up. Special features of CPS specialists were rarely solicited by COVID-19 teams experiencing a high workload. Recommendations on optimal CPS resource reallocations have to be standardized in crisis conditions.

本数据集为发表于《比较疗效研究杂志》的论文《COVID-19对慢性疼痛结构的影响：法国国家调查数据》的同行评审补充材料。补充数据：翻译后的调查问卷。研究目的：作者评估了第一波COVID-19大流行对法国慢性疼痛结构（CPS）的影响。研究方法：在线调查评估了CPS资源分配、工作流程以及对患者护理感知的影响。研究结果：所有CPS工作流程均受到严重影响，其中42%的专科医生资源被重新分配。72%的参与者取消了面对面预约。91%的参与者（远程医疗）维持了随访。在临终决策/咨询方面的技能很少被征询。危机对患者的体验感知影响显著（八成），医疗可及性延迟显著增加。结论：CPS维持了患者的随访。在面临高负荷的COVID-19团队中，很少征询CPS专家的特殊技能。在危机条件下，关于优化CPS资源重新分配的建议需标准化。
