Brief Summary   Identifying predictors of chronic pain is crucial for improving patient care. The study aims to find the differences in pain intensity, interference and quality of life based on pain management methods. The Brief Pain Inventory is expected to show negative impacts of chronic pain on daily life.

By analyzing the effectiveness of different pain management strategies , it may contribute to improved treatments. Identifying demographic factors and factors influencing quality of life outcomes can inform the development of targeted interventions and support services for diverse patient populations.
