IN PROGRESS: According to Fritz et al., measurements of impairments, pain, disability and psychosocial measures should be assessed to determine the appropriate intervention. (Fritz, 2)

Medical Management (current best evidence)[edit | edit source]

The Treatment Based Classification system developed by Delitto and colleagues is used to classify those with LBP into either manipulation, stabilization, repeated exercise, or traction subgroups to better allow for homogenous subgroups based on impairments. (Fritz 2)
