The patient-specific functional scale is more responsive than the Roland Morris disability questionnaire when activity limitation is low

The patient-specific functional scale is more responsive than the Roland Morris disability questionnaire when activity limitation is low
Abstract  The primary objective of this study was to determine which questionnaire, the Roland Morris disability questionnaire (RMDQ) or the patient-specific functional scale (PSFS), was better at detecting change in activity limitation in a large cohort of patients with low back pain undergoing rehabilitation. A secondary aim was to determine if the responsiveness of the questionnaires was influenced by the patient’s level of activity limitation at baseline. Responsiveness statistics, including effect size statistics, Pearson’s r correlations and receiver operative characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were used to determine ability to detect change in activity limitation on 831 patients with low back pain. Data were analysed at two time points; directly after treatment (…

Training in safer and healthier patient handling techniques.

Training in safer and healthier patient handling techniques.
Authors: Carta A, Parmigiani F, Roversi A, Rossato R, Milini C, Parrinello G, Apostoli P, Alessio L, Porru S The aim of the project was to educate nursing staff on patient handling techniques to prevent low back pain. Within the framework of a multidisciplinary preventive intervention, a pre-post study design was implemented in a hospital. One hundred and forty nurses and healthcare assistants attended a two-hour lesson and a three-hour practical training session; 48 nurses attended a train-the-trainer programme that was comprised of three-hour classes, two-hour lessons on communication techniques and four hours of practical training. Improvements were tested using questionnaires and direct observations. A statistically significant improvement was noted in questionnaire scores (p<0….

First Non-Contingent Respiratory Biofeedback Placebo versus Contingent Biofeedback in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized, Controlled, Double-Blind Trial.

First Non-Contingent Respiratory Biofeedback Placebo versus Contingent Biofeedback in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized, Controlled, Double-Blind Trial.
Authors: Kapitza KP, Passie T, Bernateck M, Karst M Previous studies reported that respiratory feedback (RFB) aids in alleviating chronic pain. However, to date, this adjunct treatment has not been rigorously tested against non-contingent (placebo) feedback. Forty-two patients with chronic low back pain were randomized to either RFB or non-contingent RFB. Both groups performed a daily 30-min home training for 15 consecutive days. A respiratory associated relaxation index (RI) was measured. Pain levels and a somatosensory profile were assessed before and after intervention. Additionally, pain levels were assessed 3 months after the end of intervention. Secondary outcome parameters included daily functioning, psychopathology, and suggestibility. T-tests showed higher and significant pain…

Evaluation of the effectiveness of workplace exercise in controlling neck, shoulder and low back pain: a systematic review

bra target=_blank rel=nofollow href=http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=3222753cid=c_1_66_ffid=37447url=http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttextpid=S1413-35552009000600002lng=ennrm=isotlng=en Evaluation of the effectiveness of workplace exercise in controlling neck, shoulder and low back pain: a systematic review /abrCONCLUSIONS: The electronic search yielded a total of 8680 references published in English. At the end of the selection process, 18 studies were included. Strong evidence was found to support the effectiveness of physical exercise in controlling neck pain among workers who performed sedentary tasks in offices or administrative environments, while moderate evidence was found for low back pain relief among healthcare and industrial workers who performed heavy physical tasks. These positive results were reported when the training periods were longer than 10 weeks, the exercises were performed against some type of resistance and the sessions were supervised. None of the studies evaluating sedentary workers reported positive results for controlling musculoskeletal shoulder pain. Further randomi… br

Acupuncture in Primary Care

When practiced by a certified provider, it is safe and patients often find it calming and relaxing. Animal and human studies have found a physiologic basis for acupuncture needling in that it affects the complex central and peripheral neurohormonal network. Although it is unclear whether acupuncture is beneficial over sham/placebo acupuncture, acupuncture care yields clinically relevant short- and long-term benefits for low back pain, knee osteoarthritis, chronic neck pain, and headache. The integration of acupuncture into a primary care setting also appears to be cost-effective. The practice of acupuncture in primary care requires rigorous training, financial discipline, and good communication sk… br

Medical Training Related to Musculoskeletal Conditions is Inadequate

Medical Training Related to Musculoskeletal Conditions is Inadequate
From Harvard Medical School in the U.S. to medical schools in Europe, medical education related to musculoskeletal conditions is inadequate. A 2009 survey tested physician’s knowledge related to simple low back pain management. The average survey score of family practitioners was 69.7 and the average score of orthopedists was far less at 44.3. Orthopedists were less likely to make the proper radiological referral and appropriate pharmacological prescription based upon the literature. (Source: ChiroACCESS: Tools for Better Patient Care)

Usefulness of perceived level of exertion in patients with chronic low back pain attending a physical training programme.

Usefulness of perceived level of exertion in patients with chronic low back pain attending a physical training programme.
Conclusions. The capability of the Borg-scale to accurately predict HR appears moderate. However combined with measuring HR, it results in a relevant and efficient method for training CLBP patients in clinical practice. PMID: 20001827 [PubMed - in process] (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)
