The manuscript introduces the updated FIGO-IPPS CPP definition, which lowers the diagnostic threshold to pain typically lasting 3 months or more and prioritizes functional impairment. Central to this definition is the R U MOVVING SOMe classification system, enabling systematic identification of overlapping pain generators and central sensitization. The authors advocate for a cutting-edge methodology integrating trauma-informed care (TIC), specialized musculoskeletal and neurological examinations, and validated Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs). This framework provides clinicians a standardized pathway to optimize diagnostic accuracy and treatment.","source_license":"CC0","license_restricted":false}
