Prognostic occupational factors for persistent low back pain in primary care

Abstract: In this study of patients with acute/subacute LBP, 'resigned attitude towards the job' increased the likelihood of persistent LBP at 6 month. Addressing this factor with workplace interventions has the potential to modify the outcome. In patients experiencing 'social support at work', the development of persistent LBP was less likely and might therefore be considered as potential resource for prevention of persistent LBP.

“…It is also important to understand the nature (e.g., supportive, solicitous, adversarial), of other important social interactions, such as relationships at work; lack of social support at work and dissatisfaction with co-workers; and interactions with the disability compensation system are among the most potent predictors of work disability related to pain. 91;163;164 For example, Li and colleagues studied workplace support among arthritis patients; those who reported low workplace support were much more likely to develop depressive symptoms and work-related disability 18 months later. 139 Moreover, differing social and occupational structures across countries appear to contribute to cross-national differences in rates of return to work and occupational disability in the context of painful work injury.…”

“…However, when a patient has persistent pain and is disabled from work, therapists need to explore the specific influence of workplace and social context on the patient’s disability 90. Hence, some elements of the first category are related to the patient’s subjective beliefs about work, as the patient’s attitude toward his/her job is a strong predictor of disability and pain 9496. Considering that certain elements are to some extent modifiable, when negative perceptions about work are identified throughout the interview, these will need to be addressed and part of one’s treatment strategy.…”
