Funded Activity Summary

Low back pain (LBP) is a very common and expensive health condition worldwide. To help clinicians manage LBP and other health conditions, clinical prediction rules can be used to identify patients at risk of prolonged suffering and prescribe appropriate treatments. This research program will determine the best methods to develop these rules and measure the effect they have on the burden of LBP. The findings will also contribute to improving the management of many other health conditions.
