Manual therapy: Thrust or non-thrust mobilization
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what are the 4 things you MAY use for ACUTE LBP?
- Exercise (w/ leg pn: mm strengthening/endurance, specific trunk activation)
- MT: STM, massage
- Classification Systems: Tx-based classification
- Pt education: active education/advice, biopsychosocial contributors to pn, self-management techniques, favorable natural hx

- Classification systems: mechanical diagnosis and therapy
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what are the knowledge gaps for ACUTE LBP?
(level I RCTs are needed)
- Exercise: Movement control (trunk mobility, aerobic exercises, multimodal exercises)
- MT: neural tissue mob, DN, traction
- Classification systems: cog functional therapy, prognostic risk stratification, pathoanatomic-based classification, movement system impairment
- Pt education: pain neuroscience education
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what are 3 things you SHOULD use for CHRONIC LBP?
- Exercise
- MT: thrust or nonthrust joint mob
- Pt education: pn neuroscience educ (not as stand alone tx), active tx (yoga, stretching, pilates, strength training)
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what exercise SHOULD you prescribe for CHRONIC LBP?
- General exercise training
- Muscle strengthening & endurance
- Specific trunk activation
- Aerobic
- Aquatic
- Multimodal
W/ Movement Control impairment:
1. Specific trunk activation
2. Movement control
For older adults:
1. General exercise training
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what MAY you use for tx of CHRONIC LBP?
- Exercise: mvmt control, trunk mobility
- W/ leg pn: specific trunk
activation, mvmt control
- W/ leg pn: specific trunk
- MT: STM, massage
- W/ leg pn:
thrust/nonthrust jt mob,
neural tissue mob
- W/ leg pn:
- Classification Systems: mechanical diagnosis and therapy, prognostic risk stratification, pathoanatomic-based classification
- Pt Education: active education not as stand-alone tx, post-op: general education
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what are treatments you CAN use for CHRONIC LBP?
- Exercise: Post-op general exercise training
- MT: DN
- Classification systems: tx-based classification, movement system impairment, cog functional therapy
Based off of the CPG: Interventions for the Management of Acute and Chronic LBP: Revision 2021, what treatments have knowledge gaps for CHRONIC LBP?
(level I RCTS needed)
- exercise:
- comparisons of different
approaches - optimal dosing
parameters - targeted delivery
- comparisons of different
- MT:
- comparisons of MT and
active txs - value of MT in
multimodal approaches
- comparisons of MT and
- Classification Systems: direct comparisons of different classification systems
According to the LBP Decision tree, when selecting and implementing interventions, you want to consider the pt perspective. In what 4 ways can you do this?
- Beliefs re factors causing sxs
- Motivations for recovery and prevention
- Expected and/or desired interventions
- Barriers and facilitators to goal attainment
According to the LBP decision tree, what are suggested interventions for:
ACUTE LBP W/ MOVEMENT COORDINATION IMPAIRMENTS?
