Conditions studied: Low Back Pain, Lumbago, Spinal Instability

In brief

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effect size of the change in Oswestry Disability Questionnaire (ODQ) score over the 8 week follow-up period between the video based instruction or standard of care hand-out with pictures and written instructions for subjects meeting the clinical prediction rule for lumbar stabilization. The second purpose will be to determine if there is a subset of physical examination and self-reported variables that are associated with having a successful result (ODQ improvement by at least 6 points) and if the subset of variables are affected by whether or not the subject was in the intervention (video) or control (handout) group.
