A Prospective Observational Study of Emergency Department-Initiated Physical Therapy for Acute Low Back Pain.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared patient-reported outcomes in patients receiving ED-initiated physical therapy and patients receiving usual care for acute low back pain, and found that patients receiving physical therapy had greater improvements in ODI and PROMIS-PI scores at the 3-month follow-up.

Reduction in anxiety during treatment with exercise and duloxetine is related to improvement of low back pain-related disability in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain

TL;DR: Supervised exercise plus duloxetine resulted in favorable outcomes and an improvement of LBP-related disability in approximately 50% of patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

What are the experiences of therapists using the online Back Skills Training and implementing it within clinical practice

TL;DR: I-Best can be implemented within everyday clinical settings but should be enhanced with additional face-to-face support mechanisms to improve effectiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of attentional focus on local dynamic stability during a repetitive spine flexion task.

TL;DR: Examination of the unknown effect of FOA on LDS measurements and timing error during a repetitive spine flexion task that is commonly used to assess movement control found that it is not essential to control for FOA during this movement assessment protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does the performance of five back-associated exercises relate to the presence of low back pain? A cross-sectional observational investigation in regional Australian council workers.

TL;DR: The ability to complete/not complete five test exercises correlated statistically and significantly with a higher LBP absence/presence in a general working population and training individuals to complete such exercises could facilitate reductions in LBP incidence.
