Abstract:Background Context
Chronic neck pain is a prevalent and disabling condition among older adults. Despite the large burden of neck pain, little is known regarding the cost-effectiveness of commonly used treatments.
Purpose
To estimate the cost-effectiveness of home exercise and advice (HEA), spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) plus HEA, and supervised rehabilitative exercise (SRE) plus HEA.
Study Design/Setting
Cost-effectiveness analysis conducted alongside a randomized clinical trial (RCT).

“…The observed reduction of medical interventions usage suggested that the AI system might have additional cost saving benefit. This finding was supported by a cost effectiveness study published Leininger et al, (2016) [1].…”

“…Chronic musculoskeletal neck and back pain are prevalent and disabling conditions among adults [1]. The studies published in 2010 on the global economic burden of disease indicated low back pain and neck pain ranked sixth and twenty-first respectively out of 291 diseases and injuries [2].…”

“…Two published studies in 2014 indicated that back pain [3] and neck pain [4] ranked the highest and forth out of the 291 conditions studied in terms of years lived with disability. The burden of chronic neck and back pain is increasing due to the aging society [1]. Thus there is an urgent need to identify a cost effective method to promote self-management of the conditions.…”

“…Can we all admit that the correct treatment is the one that gives the patient the most benefit and the least harm? There is evidence that including manual therapy care as part of the conservative management of patients with musculoskeletal conditions results in cost effective improvements in pain, function and satisfaction [5][6][7]. Objectively measuring clinical reasoning is a difficult task and 5 'expert' clinicians may use 5 different approaches to achieve a favorable outcome.…”
