EP01 – Clinical and neuroimaging evidence on physiotherapy for non-specific chronic low back pain
We have built a report and clinical tools that function as an evidence-based clinical guide meant to help rehabilitation professionals translate complex scientific data into effective management strategies for Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain (NS-CLBP). It incorporates high-level evidence from systematic reviews and meta-analyses to support a biopsychosocial approach.
Limited evidence exists on determinants of physiotherapists’ adherence to high value interventions in nonspecific low back pain management: A scoping review
(2021)”Examining the emerging body of evidence investigating what drives physiotherapist’s clinical decisions in the management of low back pain can guide future research into identifying barriers and facilitators of their adherence to evidence recommended interventions.”
Implementation of clinical practice guidelines for low back pain: A case control cohort study of knowledge translation in a multi-site healthcare organization
(2021) “The benefits of clinical practice guideline (CPG) adoption for the management of patients with back pain are well documented. However, the gap between knowledge creation and implementation remains wide with few studies documenting the iterative process of comprehensive implementation in clinical settings. The objective of this study was to improve adherent physical therapy care according to CPG’s for low back pain and describe the knowledge to action (K2A) process used in a rural healthcare organization.”
