Use this infоrmаtiоn fоr the next three questions. A 32‐yeаr‐old recently post‐pаrtum female presents to outpatient therapy with widespread left buttockpain. She is positive for concordant pain during sacral thrust, left thigh thrust, sacroiliac joint gapping,and sacroiliac joint compression. She has vague, nonconcordant pain and tenderness with lumbar jointaccessory mobility assessment. Quantitative sensory testing reveals widespread reduced pressure painthresholds. She also expresses signs of post‐partum depression. She reports difficulty managing herweight since she recently stopped breast‐feeding. Prior to and during pregnancy she enjoyed walkingand Pilates; however, she now is fearful of returning to previous levels of activity due to her pain. Shereports a lack of sleep due to frequent feedings for her newborn during the night. Which of the following special tests during pregnancy is most associated with greater post‐partum disability and lower post‐partum health‐related quality of life?
The pаtient is а 43-yeаr-оld man whо wоrks in a factory where he is responsible for operating a drill press and lifting heavy (25kg) cases of metal plates over his head several times throughout the day. He presents with a chief complaint of chronic low back pain that ranges from 3/10 at rest to 9/10 at the end of the day. He denies lower limb pain; he also denies lower limb numbness or muscle weakness. His symptoms began several years ago when he tried to stop a pallet of metal plates from falling off a truck. He felt a tearing sensation in his back and indicates that it has not been “right” since that time. He has had several periods of lost work time due to low back pain and has currently been out of work on a worker’s compensation claim for one month. This patient has had 2 lumbar magnetic resonance imaging examinations that revealed mildly degenerative, bulging disks at L4-5 and L5-S1. His previous physical therapy treatment has been centered on pain control approaches using moist heat and ultrasound. He indicates that he was instructed in the performance of sit-up exercises but stopped doing them after a couple of days because they increased his pain. He has avoided physical activity and exercise since that time. During your physical examination of this patient you note that, surprisingly, he has full range of motion of his lumbar spine and lower extremities. However, he has great difficulty controlling the position of his spine and pelvis when trying to perform a simulated lift that is similar to his job requirements. This task also increases his pain intensity but does not cause it to peripheralize. Given only this currently obtained information, which of the treatment approaches listed below is most supported by the literature?
