Low back pain in children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the effectiveness of conservative interventions

Purpose To identify and evaluate the effectiveness of conservative treatment approaches used in children and adolescents to manage and prevent low back pain (LBP). Methods Five electronic databases and the reference lists of systematic reviews were searched for relevant studies. Randomised controlle...

Methods Five electronic databases and the reference lists of systematic reviews were searched for relevant studies. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were considered eligible for inclusion if they enrolled a sample of children or adolescents (&lt;18 years old) and evaluated the effectiveness of any conservative intervention to treat or prevent LBP. Two authors independently screened search results, extracted data, assessed risk of bias using the PEDro scale, and rated the quality of evidence using the GRADE criteria.

For the treatment of LBP, a supervised exercise program compared to no treatment improved the average pain intensity over the past month by 2.9 points (95 % CI 1.6–4.1) measured by a 0–10 scale (2 studies; n  = 125).

Future studies conducted in children and adolescents with LBP should incorporate what has been learnt from adult LBP research and be of rigorous methodological quality.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0940-6719</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1432-0932</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s00586-014-3461-1</identifier><identifier>PMID: 25070788</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Berlin/Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg</publisher><subject>Adolescent ; Child ; Exercise Therapy ; Humans ; Low Back Pain - prevention &amp; control ; Low Back Pain - therapy ; Medicine ; Medicine &amp; Public Health ; Neurosurgery ; Review Article ; Surgical Orthopedics ; Watchful Waiting</subject><ispartof>European spine journal, 2014-10, Vol.23 (10), p.2046-2058</ispartof><rights>Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c500t-16f236df6b828021eec33edfd213c530e9e4c4b02edde6d0560ed7c876b48d153</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c500t-16f236df6b828021eec33edfd213c530e9e4c4b02edde6d0560ed7c876b48d153</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,27924,27925</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25070788$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Michaleff, Zoe A.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Kamper, Steven J.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Maher, Christopher G.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Evans, Roni</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Broderick, Carolyn</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Henschke, Nicholas</creatorcontrib><title>Low back pain in children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the effectiveness of conservative interventions</title><title>European spine journal</title><addtitle>Eur Spine J</addtitle><addtitle>Eur Spine J</addtitle><description>Purpose To identify and evaluate the effectiveness of conservative treatment approaches used in children and adolescents to manage and prevent low back pain (LBP).
