Markers of Outcome - a Cohort Study of LBP in Primary Health Care Low-back pain (LBP) is a complex and heterogeneous disorder commonly seen in primary health care. Despite a variety of treatment options available, it seems that few of these prevent recurrent LBP and chronicity. In addition, when comparing different treatment options, effect sizes are not impressive, indicating that we either lack effective treatment for LBP, diagnose poorly or that we measure the outcome of treatment incorrectly. Sub groups within the heterogeneous group suffering from LBP need to be identified and also markers influencing treatment efficacy. The project aims to conduct a cohort study with the objective to identify prognostic markers and sub groups for a successful or poor outcome of low-back pain and disability in short and long term. We aim to follow the trajectory of pain, to study interactions of markers and associations with days of pain and activity level. We will include people seeking physiotherapy care for a primary complaint of LBP to collect data on a core set of outcome measurements concerning pain, functional limitations, health and quality of life, self- efficacy and fear avoidance. The data will be collected at baseline, at 8 weeks and 6 and 12 months following an intervention of guideline recommended physiotherapeutic care comprising information to "stay active" and exercises enhancing core stability supervised by experienced physiotherapist. We aim to collect data on movement control of the lower back and general excessive mobility of the joints at base line. We will collect longitudinal data on days with troublesome pain and activity level through text-messages sent every 2 weeks. We will analyze the data with mixed model regression analyses and cluster analyses to be able to identify predictive factors and interactions to sub group the participants.
