Hello and welcome to this series
which we'll discuss current
thinking in back pain management.
My name is Anna Hlavsova, and
I'm a physiotherapist, and one
of the editors of this series.
I would like to give you a
brief introduction, which will
outline the talks in this series.
0:18
This series about back pain will
contain talks about biomechanics,
interacting systems of back pain,
pain management, physiotherapy,
psychosocial flags,
and combined physical
and psychological programs.

Back pain is a worldwide problem,
with high prevalence rates
and large impact on those suffering.
It is estimated that
about 8 out of 10 people
will get back pain at
some point in their lives.
Chronic back pain, especially,
is a very costly problem.
And it costs the EU in
excess of 12 billion euros.
It is the number one cause
of disability worldwide
and is consuming more and
more finances and healthcare
resources every year.
Low back pain without
radicular pain is
the most common
musculoskeletal complaint
of people presenting to their GPs.
In the UK more than 100
million working days per year
are lost because of back pain.
This poses increasing
costs to society,
increasing chronicity
around the world.
This series will discuss
some of the key issues
and the main research
areas in back pain.
1:24
There are many theories about
the various causes of back pain.
However, it is highly unlikely
that there is just one cause.
It is a combination of biological,
psychological, and social factors,
which is quite individual
for every person.
So what do we know so far about
biomechanics of back pain?
Well, this will be answered
in one of the upcoming talks.
However, a purely biological
perspective is not enough,
because it does not explain
that there are many people
with herniated discs and
asymptomatic findings on MRIs,
but they haven't got any pain.
So the next talk, we'll
discuss if low back pain is
a composite of interacting systems.
