Abstract

 The aim of this short communication was to highlight the evidence informed from randomized controlled trials on multidisciplinary rehabilitation of people with chronic low back pain (CLBP). From the reviewed randomized controlled trials, there is moderate evidence for efficacy of an individualized comprehensive multidisciplinary biopsychosocial rehabilitation program on people with CLBP. However the efficacy was provider­dependent and time­dependent, as demonstrated by lack of efficacy when treatments were delivered by non­trained professionals, and the length of the follow­up on change in outcome measures.

Keywords: Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation; Biopsychosocial Model; Chronic Low Back Pain; Orthopedic Rehabilitation.
