TL;DR: Intensified research efforts and global initiatives are clearly needed to address the burden of low back pain as a public health problem, where health and other systems are often fragile and not equipped to cope with this growing burden.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Effective, promising, or emerging solutions that could offer new directions in the management of low back pain need greater attention and further research to determine if they are appropriate for large-scale implementation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Responsiveness of the Numeric Pain Rating Scale in Patients with Low Back Pain
TL;DR: Clinicians can be confident that a 2-point change on the numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) represents clinically meaningful change that exceeds the bounds of measurement error.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparison of a Modified Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire and the Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale
Julie M. Fritz,James J. Irrgang +1 more
TL;DR: The validity of a global rating of change as a reflection of meaningful change in patient status was supported by the stability of the Physical Impairment Index across the study period in patients defined as stable by the global rating and by the decrease in physical impairment across thestudy period.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Clinical Prediction Rule To Identify Patients with Low Back Pain Most Likely To Benefit from Spinal Manipulation: A Validation Study
John D. Childs,Julie M. Fritz,Timothy W. Flynn,James J. Irrgang,Kevin K. Johnson,Guy R. Majkowski,Anthony Delitto +6 more
TL;DR: The clinical prediction rule for identifying which patients with low back pain are most likely to respond to manipulation was validated in a multicenter trial to improve clinical efficiency and resource utilization.
