This systematic review assessed the clinical efficacy and safety of interdisciplinary interventions in adults diagnosed with FMD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO, PEDro, INAHTA, trial registries, and HTA agency websites were searched from inception to October 2025. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing coordinated multidisciplinary\/interdisciplinary interventions combining therapeutic components delivered by professionals from different discipline with non-coordinated or non-multidisciplinary care were included. Outcomes of interest included quality of life, motor function, mental health, and reported adverse events. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias-2 tool.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Meta-analysis was not feasible because of substantial heterogeneity across studies. Five RCTs published between 2002 and 2024, including 186 participants (105 females) were included. One study was rated as having an overall high risk of bias. Compared with control interventions, interdisciplinary interventions may improve quality of life (physical domain) and motor function in the short to medium term, although findings were inconsistent across studies. No clear benefits were found for mental health status, overall clinical assessment, or social impact. Reported adverse events were infrequent and generally mild.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Perspective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This systematic review synthesizes current evidence on interdisciplinary care in FMD.
