Secondary Prevention of Low‐Back Pain: A Clinical Trial
A clinical trial , aim ed at secondary prevention of low-back pain , was performed in 142 hospital employees reporting at least three annual episodes of this condition . Participants were r and omly assigned to one of three groups : a calisthenics program ( CAL ) for 3 months with biweekly sessions of flexion exercises , a back school program ( 5 sessions ) , and a control group . The effectiveness of the two intervention programs was evaluated over a 1-year period . Baseline preintervention data and evaluation at the end of 3 months of intervention and after an additional 6 months were collected . A monthly surveillance for the whole year showed a mean of 4.5 “ painful months ” in the CAL group versus 7.3 and 7.4 months in the back school and control groups , respectively ( P < 0.0001 ) . The superiority of the CAL group was achieved partly because of the significant increase in trunk forward flexion and to initial increment in abdominal muscle strength . The increased trunk flexion was associated with the rate of participation in the CAL sessions . Further research is needed to answer the question of “ intensity versus type of exercise ” by comparing different intervention programs , with similar intensity
