Classification of Lumbar Spine Impairments

Course overview

Low back pain is the leading cause of disability in many countries. Because of its prevalence and high burden, several classification systems for low back pain have been developed to optimise patient outcomes. These systems help clinicians classify patients based on their presenting symptoms and impairments and then select an optimal management approach based on this classification. This course explores two evidence-based classification systems: Treatment-based Classification (TBC) and another related system that incorporates International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) terminology.
