Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyA biopsychosocial primary care intervention (Back on Track) versus primary care as usual in a subgroup of people with chronic low back pain: protocol for a randomised, controlled trial.
Multidisciplinary biopsychosocial interventions are effective at improving functional disability in people with chronic low back pain. However, these interventions are often expensive and have long waiting times before treatment starts. Therefore, implementing biopsychosocial interventions in primary care settings may be of interest. Because people with chronic low back pain show different biopsychosocial profiles, they might respond differently to specific interventions. ⋯ This study will provide useful information on a biopsychosocial intervention for chronic low back pain in primary care settings.
