In episode 5 of season 8 of Inside the Science we’re highlighting the study, “An international survey of the comprehensiveness of the McKenzie classification system and the proportions of classifications and directional preferences in patients with spinal pain” with Dr. Stephen May. You’ll hear him share the background of what prompted the paper, specifics as to what classification syndromes were found and to what percentage, what was found for the “OTHER” subgroup, what direction was generally preferred, how often the provisional classification remained the same from initial to discharge, the clinical implications and big takeaways.
