A short video by Jeff Langmaid discussing recent research on whether radiographic (x-ray) features of spinal osteoarthritis can predict long-term persistence and severity of back pain in older adults. The episode promises clinical takeaways, communication strategies for clinicians, and a link to the highlighted paper in the show notes.
On this week's episode, we're talking research. This one is all around radiographs and whether or not there is a prognostic or predictive factor of long term back pain in older adults. It's a good one. Lots of clinical pearls, some take home messages, and of course, we'll talk about how and why this information can be communicated to your patient. And the title of the study we're going to highlight is Clinical in Radiographic Features of Spinal Osteoarthritis Predict Long Term persistence and severity of Back pain in Older adults as you've come to expect. I'll drop a link down to this in the show notes so you can access where the paper is at.
