简要总结
The purpose of the current research project is to examine if the healthcare professionals (HCPs) knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behavior about the management of low back pain (LBP) patients changes following an e-learning intervention (experimental interactive e-learning versus traditional non-interactive e-learning)
详细描述
The purpose of the current research project is to use an e-learning educational approach to implement guideline-adherent care in first line HCPs. We aim to enhance the knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behavior of HCPs towards a biopsychosocial approach in the management of LBP patients. We will compare the effect of an interactive e-learning intervention (i.e. experimental intervention) to an e-learning intervention without interaction (i.e. traditional intervention). Both interventions will be based on the most recent scientific literature regarding the management of LBP, but both the focus and the didactical approach will slightly differ between the interventions. We will use a mixed methods approach to gain an in-depth understanding of HCPs behavior in clinical practice.

结局指标
主要结局
The Health Care Providers Pain and Impairment Relationship Scale (HC-PAIRS)
时间窗: Baseline assessment and post-intervention assessment (between 2 and 4 weeks after baseline)
The HC-PAIRS assesses attitudes and beliefs about functional expectations for patients with chronic LBP. It consists of 13 statements that must be rated on a seven-point Likert scale, ranging from 'totally disagree' to 'totally agree'. A high score on the HC-PAIRS reflects a belief with a strong relationship between pain and impairment. Psychometric properties of this questionnaire have been established.
Vignette of Rainville
时间窗: Baseline assessment and post-intervention assessment (between 2 and 4 weeks after baseline)
The clinical vignette described a patient with non-specific LBP. This vignette was developed by Rainville. Participants were asked to assess the patient's ability to work, from 1 (full-time) to 5 (remain out of work) and gave their opinion on the appropriate level of activity, with choices graded from 1 (no limitations on activity) to 5 (limit all physical activity). If the score of the participant was between 1 and 2 it was considered guideline adherent. If the score was between 3 and 5 it was considered guidelines discordant.
次要结局
