Prognosis in patients with recent onset low back pain in Australian primary care: inception cohort study

TL;DR: In this cohort of patients with acute low back pain in primary care, prognosis was not as favourable as claimed in clinical practice guidelines and recovery was slow for most patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

The prognosis of acute and persistent low-back pain: a meta-analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a meta-analysis of the literature on the clinical course of pain and disability in patients with acute and persistent low-back pain and found that patients who presented with acute or persistent lowback pain improved markedly in the first six weeks after the onset of pain.

The prognosis of acute and persistant low back pain: a meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Patients who presented with acute or persistent low-back pain improved markedly in the first six weeks, but after that time improvement slowed, and low to moderate levels of pain and disability were still present at one year, especially in the cohorts with persistent pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic review of tests to identify the disc, SIJ or facet joint as the source of low back pain

TL;DR: The results of this review demonstrate that tests do exist that change the probability of the disc or SIJ (but not the facet joint) as the source of low back pain, however, the changes in probability are usually small and at best moderate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognosis for patients with chronic low back pain: inception cohort study

TL;DR: The prognosis is less favourable for those who have taken previous sick leave for low back pain, have high disability levels or high pain intensity at onset of chronicity, have lower education, perceive themselves as having a high risk of persistent pain, and were born outside Australia.
