Notes

  • STUDY DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial was performed. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate how 2 different treatment options affect perception of health, pain, and physical functioning over time among children and adolescents with low back pain (LBP). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: LBP among children and adolescents has increased. The literature shows that children with LBP also suffer from this condition as adults. Thus, it is important to prevent and treat LBP in children and adolescents. METHODS: Forty-five children and adolescents were consecutively randomized into one of 2 treatment groups and were studied for 12 weeks. Group 1 was given individualized physical therapy and exercise and a standardized self-training program and back education. Group 2 was given self-training program and back education but no individualized therapy. The children and adolescents were tested before and after the treatment period. Child Health Questionnaire Child Form 87, Roland & Morris Disability Questionnaire, Painometer, Back Saver Sit and Reach, and test of trunk muscle endurance were used to evaluate the interventions. RESULTS: Both groups improved statistically significant in most parameters over time. On comparison between the groups the physical function measured by Roland & Morris Disability Questionnaire and the duration of pain measured by Painometer improved statistically significant in Group 1. CONCLUSION: An individual assessment by a knowledgeable physiotherapist and an active treatment model improve how children and adolescents experience their back problems with respect to health and physical function, pain, strength, and mobility, regardless of whether treatment consists of a home exercise program with follow-up or home exercise combined with exercise and treatment supervised by a physiotherapist.
