Randomized Controlled Trial
Pragmatic Implementation of a Stratified Primary Care Model for Low Back Pain Management in Outpatient Physical Therapy Settings: Two-Phase, Sequential Preliminary Study.
The effectiveness of risk stratification for low back pain (LBP) management has not been demonstrated in outpatient physical therapy settings. ⋯ In physical therapy settings, biomedical orientation can be modified, and risk-stratified care for LBP can be effectively implemented. Findings from this study can be used for planning of larger studies.
