Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Rehabilitation Medicine
  • Evidence-Based Practice

Background:

  • Post-lumbar discectomy care requires effective physiotherapy interventions.
  • Current practices may lack standardization and patient-centered flexibility.
  • Optimizing physiotherapy is crucial for patient recovery and outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an optimized 1:1 physiotherapy intervention for patients post-lumbar discectomy.
  • To ensure the intervention reflects best available evidence and patient-centered principles.
  • To create a flexible intervention adaptable to individual patient needs.

Main Methods:

  • A mixed-methods approach combining evidence synthesis, expert review, and focus groups.
  • Systematic reviews and surveys informed a draft intervention.
  • Expert panels and patient/physiotherapist focus groups provided feedback and assessed acceptability.

Main Results:

  • An optimized 1:1 physiotherapy intervention was developed, incorporating best evidence and patient-centered flexibility.
  • The intervention consists of up to 8 sessions over 8 weeks, commencing 4 weeks post-surgery.
  • Both patients and physiotherapists found the intervention acceptable.

Conclusions:

  • A rigorous development process yielded an optimized 1:1 physiotherapy intervention for post-lumbar discectomy.
  • The intervention aligns with best practices and offers tailored management.
  • Five UK spinal centers agreed to implement this intervention in a future randomized controlled trial.
