OBJECTIVE
Over the past decade, psychosocial issues have been increasingly identified as risk factors that are associated with the development of chronicity and disability. These psychosocial risk factors are known as Yellow Flags. In New Zealand, in 1997, the Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC)
OBJECTIVE
While it is agreed that yellow flags (prognostic psychosocial factors for poor recovery in low back pain) predict pain-related outcomes, uncertainty remains regarding which constructs are the central ones, particularly as there is considerable conceptual overlap between constructs.
BACKGROUND
Despite its high prevalence, most acute low back pain (ALBP) is nonspecific, self-limiting with no definable pathology. Recurrence is prevalent, as is resultant chronicity. Psychosocial factors (yellow flags comprising depression and anxiety, negative pain beliefs, job dissatisfaction)
UNASSIGNED
Chronic low back pain (LBP) is a major cause of disability; early diagnosis and stratification of care remain challenges.
UNASSIGNED
This article describes the development of a screening tool for the 1-year prognosis of patients with high chronic LBP risk (risk stratification index) and
UNASSIGNED
Physical therapists (PTs) may practice in direct access or act as primary care practitioners, which necessitate patients' screening and management for red, orange and yellow flags. The objective of the project was to assess the American PT's ability to manage red, orange and yellow flags
Originally the term "yellow flags" was used to describe psychosocial prognostic factors for the development of disability following the onset of musculoskeletal pain. The identification of yellow flags through early screening was expected to prompt the application of intervention guidelines to
Objectives: Research was conducted to study the efficacy of analgesic infiltration treatment in a well-selected population of patients with non-specific drug-resistant chronic low back pain. It studied the pain on a numeric rating scale
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and construct and predictive validity of the Norwegian version of the Acute Low Back Pain Screening Questionnnaire (ALBPSQ).
METHODS
A prospective study with a 12-month follow-up was conducted on 123 patients with acute low back
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether patterns of patient-provider communication might vary depending on psychosocial risk factors for back disability.
METHODS
Working adults (N = 97; 64% men; median age = 38 years) with work-related low back pain completed a risk factor questionnaire and then agreed to
METHODS
Two-year, prospective cohort data from the Japan epidemiological research of occupation-related back pain study in urban settings were used for this analysis.
OBJECTIVE
To examine the association between aggravated low back pain and psychosocial factors among Japanese workers with mild low
Back pain is a significant medical problem and one of the most common causes of medical consultations and missed work. In acute low back pain, patients with "red flags" indicating a serious underlying spinal or extraspinal disease must be identified by medical evaluation. Most cases of acute back
Due to international guidelines of treatment of acute low back pain (LBP), psychosocial risk factors like depressive mood and maladaptive pain-related coping strategies ('yellow flags') have to be assessed in the early phase of acute pain. Within this longitudinal study in patients with LBP and leg
BACKGROUND
Low back pain is a challenge in daily clinical activity. The prognosis for single episodes of acute pain is good, but many patients have persistent/recurrent illness, often characterized by a complex pattern of somatic, psychological and social factors. The aim of this article is to
Low back pain is defined as pain and discomfort, localised below the costal margin and above the inferior gluteal folds, with or without leg pain. It is one of the most commonest cause of seeking physician office visits, secound cause of sick leave, and because of high direct and indirect costs it
