I have worked many years with people who had LBP in the past. Some of them had chronic LBP, and these groups of patients were difficult and challenging, because there were so many things that affected the dysfunction and disability. I remember that among my colleagues, nobody wanted to take the patients with CLBP. Back then, there also were many LBP who had to quit or change their job, daily life and activities. We, physical therapists, traditionally look at signs and symptoms, but systems need to take account of the fact that there are other factors too. For chronic patient, we need an integrated approach of sorting through the multiple layers of a personal presentation.
There is a lack of consensus about the domains that should be assessed and what assessment tools should be used [145]. The existing measurement tools may not cover all of the domains that are impacted by and relevant to the LBP condition. In this way, the patients may overestimate or underestimate their health status, which may affect the treatment decision. Furthermore, there is no single comprehensive measure to assess patients’ health outcomes. To comprehensively assess patients, multiple questionnaires are needed, and this consumes time for both patients and clinicians and introduces extra challenges, such as lack of coordinated efforts to collect and standardize the PRO instruments and analyse their results [33].
