Effectiveness of Dance Therapy in Fibromyalgia.

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of an intervention with dance on balance,movility, pain and sleep in patients with Fibromyalgia in comparison to a control group that will have an educational intervention.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disease consisting of widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and cognitive impairments, among other symptoms, which affect daily physical activity. The regular physical exercise improves the functional, physiological, and behavioral components of physical fitness. Dance therapy seems to increase motivation and adherence to therapy, and can provide a real alternative to conventional exercise The experimental group will receive a dance program treatment . The control group will receive an educational intervention.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Timed Up and Go (TUG) | Change from de baseline in functional mobility and predict risk of falls. The single-task subscale consists of a measurement of the time in seconds for the patient to rise from sitting in a standard arm chair, walk 3 meters, turn, walk back to the chair, and sit down. The dual task subscale adds a cognitive task (TUGCognitive) or a manual task (TUGManual) to the simple task. | 8 weeks | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| One leg stance | Change from de baseline in postural steadiness (static balance) in a static position by registering the number of seconds a person can maintain this position. | 8 weeks | 
| SLUMP Test | Change from de baseline in the movement of the pain-sensitive nerve structures. | 8 weeks | 
| Straight Leg Raise test (SLR) | Change from de baseline in the movement of the pain-sensitive nerve structures. | 8 weeks | 
| Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR) | Change from the baseline on the impact of symptoms on quality of life in people with fibromyalgia. Questionnaire with 21-items on a visual analogue scale. | 8 weeks | 
| Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) | Change from the baseline on the severity of general disability in the items of work, family life/home responsibilities and social life/leisure activities. | 8 weeks | 
| Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) | change from the baseline on sleep quality. The self-rated items of the PSQI generate seven component scores (with subscales ranged 0-3): sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, use of sleeping medication, and daytime dysfunction. | 8 weeks | 
| Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) | Change from the baseline on insomnia. It is a self-rating instrument of eigth items. | 8 weeks | 
| Spanish version of the Brief Pain Inventory questionnaire (CBD) | Change from the baseline on the intensity of pain and its impact on activities of daily living. | 8 weeks | 
| Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) | Change from the baseline on physical disability related to activities of eight categories of daily living over the last week. | 8 weeks | 
| Epworth Sleepiness Scale, (EES) | Change from thebaseline of the subject's general level of daytime sleepiness. | 8 weeks | 
| Minibestest | Change from baseline in Dynamic Balance: areas are anticipatory postural adjustments, reactive postural responses, sensory orientation, and stability in gait. This tool has 14 items, with a maximum score of 28 points. | 8 Weeks |
