Study population

Patients who consulted to our Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic during the period between June 2018 and April 2018; and volunteered to participate in this study were evaluated.

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening; this overview does not establish that a patient qualifies. Full inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Interventions

Primary outcome

1. Back Beliefs Questionnaire

   Time frame: 10 minutes

   BBQ was designed to evaluate patients' LBP and their expectations regarding the negative outcomes that might be inflicted on their future; and their attitude towards return-to-work.BBQ consists of 14 items to be filled in by patients. Nine of which are used to evaluate inevitability (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 13th, 14th) and the other 5 are distractors (4th, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th). All items are evaluated on a 5-point-Likert Scale that referred to "1-Definitely Disagree" and "5-Definitely Agree". Scoring is calculated over the expressions included in the inevitability measure by reversing the numerical values which are appointed by the participants. The resulting score is between 9 and 45. Lower scores supports the more incompatible and pessimistic beliefs.

2. Numeric Rating Scale-Pain

   Time frame: 2 minutes

   Numeric Rating Scale-Pain is a scale with good sensitivity that quantitatively evaluates the pain intensity, which is easily comparable to other pain scales. The patient defines pain level within a range of 1 to 10. 1 point represents the minumum pain level, while 10 indicates the most severe pain.

3. Oswestry Disability Index

   Time frame: 5 minutes

   Oswestry Disability Index is a scale that assesses the functional disability level associated with LBP. It consists of 10 items that each have 6 options, which are scored between 0-5. The patient's total score is divided by the maximum possible score and multiplied by 100; and a percentage score is thus attained. The resulting score is between 0 and 100. As the total score increases, the level of functional disability also increases

4. Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire

   Time frame: 3 minutes

   Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire evaluates the physical activity and work related beliefs of fear and avoidance that arise in patients with LBP. It consists of two subscales (physical activity and work) and 16 questions in total.The patient rates their agreement with each statement on a 7-point Likert scale. Where 0= completely disagree, 6=completely agree. There is a maximum score of 96. A higher score indicates more strongly held fear avoidance beliefs.

5. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale

   Time frame: 3 minutes

   The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale is a frequently used self-rating scale developed to assess psychological distress in non-psychiatric patients. The questionnaire comprises seven questions for anxiety and seven questions for depression. HADS scores were interpreted as follows for each subscale: mild=8-10, modarate=11-14, severe=15-21.
