Clinical Trial Summary

This is a study of adults with acute low back pain flare-up at risk of becoming chronic and disabling. The study tests how well spinal manipulation and guided selfcare work compared to standard medical care. The treatments last up to eight weeks and participants will be followed for one year.


Clinical Trial Description

The long-term goal is to reduce overall low back pain (LBP) burden by evaluating, first-line, non-drug treatment strategies that address the biological, psychological and social aspects of acute LBP and prevent transition to chronic back pain. The study will also assess barriers and facilitators that impact future implementation of the non-drug treatments into clinical practice. The US faces an unprecedented pain management crisis. LBP is the most common chronic pain condition in adults and one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Guidelines have recommended non-drug treatments like spinal manipulation and behavioral and selfcare approaches for LBP for nearly a decade, yet uptake and adherence has been poor. Little is known about the role of these treatments in the secondary prevention of chronic LBP, especially for patients at risk of developing severe low back pain. Due to high societal costs, and side effects of commonly used drug treatments, including opioids, there is a critical need for research on how well non-drug treatments work for preventing serious chronic LBP. ;
