BOOK
Chronic back pain has been and continues to be a major cause of
distress (both to people with persistent pain and their
significant others), disability, work loss, and a huge cost to
society. Moreover, with the aging population, it is becoming even
more prevalent and as a consequence is having an escalating
impact upon the healthcare systems and society as a whole
worldwide. A significant issue concerns understanding why
although the majority of people with acute back symptoms recover
in a reasonable time, a significant minority evolve into patients
with chronic pain and prolonged pain-related disability
Understanding the variables that contribute to chronicity could
serve as a basis for early intervention to prevent the downward
spiral
In the past 15 years, psychological and psychobiological
mechanisms have been identified as important risk factors in back
pain, leading to the development of early screending methods
(Yellow Flag diagnostics) and new psychosocial interventions
These work by closely targeting treatment modalities to patients'
needs. However, many aspects of how acute pain becomes chronic
pain remain unexplained. Recent neurobiological work
investigating genetic, neurophysiological, and biomechanical
processes has uncovererd important mechanisms involved in chronic
and acute back pain
From Acute to Chronic Back Pain examines the risk factors and
mechanisms involved in the transition from acute to chronic back
pain. It integrates genetic, biomechnanical neurobiological
psychophysiological, psychosocial, and socieconomic risk factors
Moreover, the text examines advances in treatment approaches
based on evidence from published studies-ranging from prevention
of disability to pharmacological, psychological, and
rehabilitative strategies and methods
Broad in scope, and with contributions from leading authorities
in their respective fields, this book is a valuable and
comprehensive work for the many specialities involved with back
pain - including those in the fields of clinical and health
psychology, physiology, epidemiology, and pain
