Factors associating with disability of non-specific low back pain in different subgroups: A hierarchical linear regression analysis

Abstract This study aimed to explore factors associating with disability, which means physical impairment affecting a person’s mobility, capacity, stamina, or agility, of non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) of the acute and non-acute groups. Two hundred thirty-five patients with NSLBP of less than 8 ...

Sumario:Abstract This study aimed to explore factors associating with disability, which means physical impairment affecting a person’s mobility, capacity, stamina, or agility, of non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) of the acute and non-acute groups. Two hundred thirty-five patients with NSLBP of less than 8 weeks’ duration as acute groups (n = 124) and more than 8 weeks’ duration as non-acute group (n = 111) were recruited. It was collected data on pain intensity, disability and psychosocial factors, including pain catastrophising, fear of movement and pain self-efficacy. Disability was measured Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was performed to analyse factors associating with disability of the acute and non-acute groups. The Result was that explanatory power increased with each additional variable of the order of demographic characteristics, pain intensity and psychosocial factors for both groups. Pain intensity, pain catastrophising and pain self-efficacy had significant explanatory power, with pain self-efficacy having the most significant association on the acute group. Only pain self-efficacy having the most significant association on disability of the non-acute group. In conclusion, the factors associating with disability differed depending on the duration of the disease, and pain self-efficacy might be one of the factors associating with disability of patients with NSLBP.
