Overview
Brief Summary
This study compares the efficacy of a supervised rehabilitation program vs a non supervised rehabilitation program on pain, disability, quality of life and kinesiophobia in patients with non-specific low back pain.
Detailed Description
Low back pain is one of the most common problems of population, being a priority for health systems. It has got a high prevalence and recurrence, affecting in a social and economic way, and, it is one of principal causes of laboral absenteism. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted comparing a supervised physical therapy rehabilitation program vs a non supervised rehabilitation program. Objective: to compare the efficacy of a supervised rehabilitation program vs a non supervised rehabilitation program in patients with non-specific low back pain. Methods: Sixt-four subjects with chronic non-specific low back pain will be assigned to supervised rehabilitation program or non supervised rehabilitation program during 4 weeks (5 sessions/week). Outcomes measures will be the following: disability, pain intensity, fear of movement, quality of life, McQuade Test, and lumbar mobility flexion.
