Aliaa Rehan Youssef·observational·Posted May 7, 2018·Updated May 21, 2019

In Brief

An observational study evaluating Smart phone use for Mechanical Low Back Pain. Completed, enrolled 62 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This study investigates the association between the duration of smart phone use and back pain and proprioception deficits in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain (CLBP). It is hypothesized that increased duration of smart phone use will be associated with 1. Increased back pain as measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) 2. Reduced proprioception acuity as indicated by increased angle of error of back repositioning as measured by isokinetic dynamometer.
