OSCAR (Osteopathic Single CAse Research) – Assessing the effect of standard and biopsychosocial osteopathic management for patients with non-specific low back pain: Protocol for a Single Case Experimental Design (SCED)

Osteopathy has been shown to be effective in the management of chronic low back pain (LBP). Guidelines recommend biopsychosocial care for chronic, complex musculoskeletal conditions, including non-specific LBP. This study has four aims: 1/to assess how patients with LBP improve after osteopathic treatment, both before and after an osteopath has completed a Biopsychosocial Pain Management course; 2/to assess if it is feasible and acceptable for osteopaths to receive weekly SCED data and use it to guide patient management; 3/to assess if it is acceptable for patients to submit daily data and discuss weekly summary with their osteopaths; and 4/to test feasibility for researchers in collecting, managing and storing large quantities of individual patient data … ABSTRACT
