Self-rated health
Data will be collected by the EuroQol-5 dimensions (EQ-5D)The Swedish version of the EuroQol-5 dimensions, (3 level version) collected routinely in SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The first part of EQ-5D-3L consists of a descriptive system of 5 dimensions; mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression with 3 severity levels (no/some/extreme problems). The 5 dimensions can be converted into a summary index (EQ-5D Index), which ranges from
-0.594 to 1, where 1 represents "perfect health" and values below zero represent states "worse than death".
Physical activity
Data will be collected through SQRP-PC using the National Board of Health and Welfare's question on physical activity (0 - >300 minutes/week),The outcome represents minutes spent in physical activity/week. High values represents high level of physical activity,
Exercise

Sedentary activities
Data will be collected through SQRP-PC using the National Board of Health and Welfare's question on, and sedentary behavior (0 - 15 hours/day).The outcome represents minutes spent in sedentary activities/week. High values represents high level of sedentary behavior.
Strenous exercise
In SQRP-SC, data is collected by the Godin-Shepard leisure-time physical activity questionnaire (number of times/week that strenuous exercise is performed). High values represents high levels of strenuous exersise per week.
Moderate exercise
In SQRP-SC, data is collected by the Godin-Shepard leisure-time physical activity questionnaire (number of times/week that moderate exercise is performed). High values represents high levels of moderate exersise per week.
Light exercise
In SQRP-SC, data is collected by the Godin-Shepard leisure-time physical activity questionnaire (number of times/week that light exercise is performed). High values represents high levels of light exersise per week.
Overall emotional distress
Data will be collected by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. HADS is a 14-item self-assessment questionnaire in which 7 items address anxiety and 7 items address depression (subscales; HADS-D - depression and HADS-A - anxiety).
The subscale scores can range from 0 to 21, with lower scores indicating better function.
Pain catastrophizing
Data will be collected by the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The PCS instructions ask participants to reflect on past painful experiences, and to indicate the degree to which they experienced each of 13 thoughts or feelings when experiencing pain, on 5-point scales with the end points (0) not at all and (4) all the time. The PCS yields a total score and three subscale scores assessing rumination, magnification and helplessness. The PCS total score is computed by summing responses to all 13 items. PCS total scores range from 0 - 52. Higher values indicating higher levels of catastrophizing
Psychosocial consequences - Pain intensity
Data will be collected by the Multidimensional Pain Inventory Scale Swedish version (MPI-S) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The construct "psychosocial consequences" is measured by five subscales (total 22 items) where "pain intensity" is the first. The subscales and the index range from 0-6, with higher scores indicating better function.
Psychosocial consequences - Interference
Data will be collected by the Multidimensional Pain Inventory Scale Swedish version (MPI-S) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The construct "psychosocial consequences" is measured by five subscales (total 22 items) where "interference" is the the second subscale. The subscales and the index range from 0-6. In "interference" higher scores indicate higher interference.
Psychosocial consequences - Life control
Data will be collected by the Multidimensional Pain Inventory Scale Swedish version (MPI-S) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The construct "psychosocial consequences" is measured by five subscales (total 22 items) where "life control" is the third subscale. The subscales and the index range from 0-6, with higher scores indicating better function.
Psychosocial consequences - Affective distress
Data will be collected by the Multidimensional Pain Inventory Scale Swedish version (MPI-S) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The construct "psychosocial consequences" is measured by five subscales (total 22 items) where "affective distress" is the fourth subscale. The subscales and the index range from 0-6, with higher scores indicating better function.
Psychosocial consequences - Social support
Data will be collected by the Multidimensional Pain Inventory Scale Swedish version (MPI-S) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. The construct "psychosocial consequences" is measured by five subscales (total 22 items) where "social support" is the fitth subscale. The subscales and the index range from 0-6, with higher scores indicating better function.
Pain acceptance
Will be collected in SQRP-PC using the Chronic Pain and Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ-8). The items on the CPAQ are rated on a 7-point scale from 0 (never true) to 6 (always true). Higher scores indicate higher levels of acceptance.
Life satisfaction
Will be collected by the Life Satisfaction Scale (LiSat) in both SQRP-PC and SQRP-SC. Each item is scored on a 6-point scale from 1 (very dissatisfied) to 6 (very satisfied). High values represents higher perceived life satisfaction.
Work ability
Will be collected by the Work Ability Index (WAI) in SQRP-SC only. The scale ranges from 0 ("cannot work at all) to 10 (my ability to work is at its best right now) where higher levels indicate higher levels of work ability
Functional levels
Data on functional level will be collected by the Functional Rating Scale (FRI) ranging from 0-4 in each item, total score is 40 and high values represents highly affected functional levels. FRI is collected in SQRP-SC only
Sleep quality
Data on sleep quality will be collected by the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) in SQRP-SC.
The index consists of 10 items with response scale 0 (no difficulities) to 4 (major difficulities). High values represents major sleep difficulties.

Quality Adjusted Life Years
The outcome will be calculated as Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) which is a "utility value" that ranges between 1 (perfect health), and 0 = death. The standard treatment will be used as baseline and the calculation is a cost effectiveness calculation. Data on health-related quality of life will be used. Higher values of QALYs represents higher cost effectiveness of the intervention.
The calculation formula is as follows: Years of Life x Utility Value = #QALYs
