Summary

Previous studies have shown Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT) results in sustained clinically important improvements compared to a variety of interventions for persistent low back pain (LBP). However, CFT is yet to be evaluated in people with persistent LBP who are affected by health inequality and multimorbidity despite the strong association between LBP, socioeconimic deprivation, multimorbidity, and increased prevalance in people from minority ethnic backgrounds. This study will aim to examine the cost and effectiveness of CFT in a population living with LBP, adversely affected by health inequality and multimorbidity in areas of social deprivation in Coventry, United Kingdom.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive Functional Therapy

CFT is an individualised, combined physical and behavioural approach specifically developed to target the multidimensional complexity of persistent LBP. CFT utilises a multidimensional clinical reasoning framework that enables the clinician to identify both modifiable and non-modifiable biopsychosocial factors (i.e. physical, cognitive, emotional, social, lifestyle and health comorbidities) underlying an individual's LBP. CFT targets these factors by: (1) helping the patient 'make sense of their pain' from a biopsychosocial perspective, (2) build confidence to engage in valued activities through functional movement training and (3) adopt positive lifestyle behaviours (O'Sullivan et al., 2018). Participants will receive approximately 7 treatment sessions over a 13-week period, although this will vary depending on participant needs, in line with the individualised nature of the intervention. Participants will be provided a booster session at 26 weeks to reinforce self-management.
