[Communication and exchange of clinical findings for low back pain between general practitioners and orthopaedic surgeons : A retrospective observational study.]
CONCLUSION: Incomplete and scant information on referral forms from GPs and a high non-response rate from orthopaedic surgeons suggest that current health care system and referral forms do not promote effective communication about the patient. This might explain the satisfaction of GPs with the orthopaedic response letters despite the lack of information. The GPs dissatisfaction with the treatment recommendations reflects the limited treatment options for chronic low back pain in ambulatory care.
