Slide 2

___________________________________ Who is this patient?  Symptoms successfully treated  Not able or not fully prepared to return to usual highlevel activity

___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________

Slide 3

___________________________________ Goal of this stage  Achieve the desired volume of functional activity in realtime, pain free and with enough strength, endurance and motor control to protect against recurrence

 Decrease fear associated with return to activity

___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________

Slide 4

___________________________________ How to achieve goal  Multiple modes of treatment utilized

___________________________________

 Gym program 

Concentric/Eccentric/Isometric

 Aerobic/Anaerobic exercise  Work simulation  Aquatics

___________________________________

 Plyometrics  Varied Environmental Factors  Pilates  Yoga

Slide 5

___________________________________ Precision Counts  Precise treatments for a non-precise group produces nonprecise outcomes Koumantakis (2005): …patients with RCLBP and no clinical signs suggesting spinal instability

___________________________________

 Conclusion: Stabilization exercises do not appear to provide additional benefit to patients with

subacute or CLBP who have no clinical signs suggesting the presence of spinal instability

 Precise treatments for a precise group produces precise outcomes O’Sullivan (1997): …patients with CLBP and radiologic diagnosis of spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis.

___________________________________

 Conclusion: A “specific exercise” approach appears more effective than other commonly

prescribed conservative treatment programs in patients with chronically symptomatic spondylolysis/spondylolisthesis.

 Treatment must be precise to the individual patient’s activities

Slide 6

___________________________________ Determine Physical Demands  Formal  Physical Demands Analysis, Industrial Accident Prevention Program

___________________________________

 http://www.iapa.ca/main/documents/pdf/FreeDownloads_PDA.pdf

 Informal  Precise questioning about physical requirements  List the patient’s concerns regarding return to activity

___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________

Slide 7

___________________________________ Determine Fears  Level of fear will determine a primary graded activity or graded exposure approach  Formal  Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire Physical Activity Subscale (FABQPA)  Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire Work Subscale (FABQW)  Informal  List the patient’s fears regarding return to activity  Precise questioning regarding fear of damage/harm

___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________

Slide 8

___________________________________ Treatment  Provide an active treatment progression that best matches the identified physical demands within available resources

 Address patient’s concerns and fears with instruction and education on how to respond to these challenges  Progress from matched exercise to dynamic multi-joint

movements with motor learning emphasis  Engram motor programming  Unconscious competence

Case Study (Treatment Summary)

___________________________________

 Day 1: DP established: Extension  Day 2: Pain centralized to low back, DP corrected to R posterolateral due to motion loss of SG R

 Day 3: Centralization maintained, Gym activation started (Row, Back Ext, Lat Pulldown, OH Press)  

High reps, Low weights (able to perform with proper technique, 15-30 reps) Theme of lordosis maintenance maintained throughout activation, manual/verbal cues PRN

___________________________________

 Day 4: Progress activation to include hip abduction/adduction and air squats (eventual

   



application to deadlift), Established work related physical requirements Day 5: Restoration of flexion initiated via slouch overcorrection, progress activation workload Day 7: Add quadriped APT/PPT for restoration of function / Introduce lifts as work simulation Day 8-10: Continually progressing baseline gym program workload Day 11: Added partial range sumo deadlift to a high pull on cable column, 10-45 lbs. progression with emphasis on motor control. Continued gym progression. Correlate lifts to work simulation Day 16: Added full range sumo deadlift, 30-50lbs (5 lb increments, 8 sets, 5 reps).  

___________________________________

Lordosis maintenance, motor control emphasis Establish work related concerns/fears (Best when RTW is realistic, too early is counterproductive)

 Day 17: Goblet squat added, 40lbs for 5 reps (high center of gravity anterior loading)  Day 18: Added Floor-to-waist lift from ½ kneeling position (work sim problem solving session)  Day 19: Added bar loaded deadlift from knee level (75lb x 3, 95lb 2x3, 105lb 3x2)

___________________________________

 Day 20 (DC): Increased deadlift to 115lb, then jog 200 ft perform dead lift x 3, 6 rounds  Next day released to work full duty, continues to work full-time today. Phone follow-up last week

Slide 13

___________________________________ Progression (88 days total)  All progressions based on ability to maintain centralization  Restoration of flexion initiated early to promote function  Activation initiated early  Gym program session 3  Work related physical demands established early  Specific work task questioning: Session 4  From this point, lifting activities were related back to work environment  Work related fears/concerns established as early as relevant  Session 16, earlier was unrealistic for RTW
