Detaljert beskrivelse

This study aims to determine the feasibility of conducting a cluster randomized trial in primary care settings in Ontario to evaluate the individual health outcomes and health system impact of implementing a new physiotherapist-led primary care model for people with back pain. The primary purpose of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility including recruitment and retention of primary care teams (sites) and patient participants, carrying out the assessment procedures, and implementing the physiotherapist-led primary care intervention including training the physiotherapist to adopt this role.

Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Fysioterapeutledet primæromsorgsmodell for ryggsmerter
Den PT-ledede primæromsorgsmodellen for ryggsmerter vil innebære å inkludere en PT i primærhelseteamet ved første kontaktpunkt for personer med ryggsmerter uten kostnad for pasienten. Pasienter i denne modellen vil få valget mellom å oppsøke PT eller fastlege. De vil bli oppfordret til å bestille hos PT, bortsett fra når den primære årsaken til besøket er fornyelse av medisiner eller når pasienten har ytterligere helseproblemer som trenger oppmerksomhet fra legen i samme besøk. Det vil være 4 nøkkelkomponenter i den PT-ledede primærhelseintervensjonen: 1) Innledende vurdering og screening; 2) Kort individualisert intervensjon ved første besøk; 3) Helsetjenester navigasjon; 4) Ytelse av ytterligere PT-omsorg for personer med et udekket behov.
Atferdsmessig: Physiotherapist-led primary care model for back pain
  1. Assessment and screening: taking a history; screening for red flags, comorbidities, and risk factors of ongoing pain and disability; physical examination
  2. Brief individualized intervention at the first visit: effective communication, cognitive reassurance, a few exercises, and advice/strategies to stay active.
  3. Health services navigation: PT assistance with navigating healthcare services based on the assessment findings. First, red-flags requiring emergency or urgent referrals. Next, comorbid conditions that would benefit from care from other healthcare providers. Finally, referral to PT (if appropriate).
  4. Providing additional physiotherapy care to people with an unmet need: Additional physiotherapy care will be provided to patients who have an identified need for physiotherapy but no physiotherapy coverage through private or government health insurance plans.
Aktiv komparator: Usual care
The physician led primary care intervention will be unstandardized to best reflect standard clinical practice in Canada. This usually includes a visit to a primary care physician, who would perform a history and physical examination, provide LBP education, and prescribe medications and/or refer based on their assessment findings and patient preferences.
