RENaBack: low back pain patients in rehabilitation-study protocol for a multicenter, randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Millions of people in Germany suffer from chronic pain, in which course and intensity are multifactorial. Besides physical injuries, certain psychosocial risk factors are involved in the disease process. The national health care guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of non-specific low back pain recommend the screening of psychosocial risk factors as early as possible, to be able to adapt the therapy to patient needs (e.g., unimodal or multimodal). However, such a procedure has been difficult to implement in practice and has not yet been integrated into the rehabilitation care structures across the country.

Methods

The aim of this study is to implement an individualized therapy and aftercare program within the rehabilitation offer of the German Pension Insura
