Q

What is the mechanism of action for neurodynamic test ?

A

Unsensitised (e.g. non injured) nerves and neuromeningeal tissues may be moved and handled without response

Nerve pathology (compression/stretch injury): mechanosensitivity + local inflammation (which can affect small & large diameter nerves) + neuroimmune responses in DRG or dorsal horn

sensitivity to neural tissue elongation along with local tenderness over the nerve trunks are the main signs of neural tissue mechanosensitivity (Walsh, 2009, p. 184)

Q

What are is the treatment used for LBP?

A
  • »Most commonly mobilisation, manipulation, stretching and STM
  • »Mobilisation moves joints in specific directions at different speeds to restore movement
  • »Stretching improves muscle activation and function
  • »STM mobilises skin and underlying muscles and connective tissues
  • »Manipulation decreases pain, increases function and increases spinal mobility.

Q

What is the management for non-specific Chronic LBP?

A
  • Effective communication encompassing empathy, active listening,
  • responsiveness, patient validation, confidence, warmth and
  • friendliness = best patient outcome.
  • Patient – centered education around multidimensional
  • mechanisms that drive pain and disability.
  • Education around beliefs, mood, stress, sleep deficits and levels
  • of fatigue on pain physiology
  • Promote active coping strategies for pain
  • • Build patient confidence in their bodies own abilities.
  • • Goal oriented behavioral changes.
