@MervTravers @Retlouping @JaredPowell12 In a systematic manner yes. ...given energy and time in retirement - it is something i would like to pursue research wise moving forward. I can see how it has a future, but the model of care would need to change - and so research needed.
@Retlouping @MervTravers @JaredPowell12 Yep we hear it time and time again that that time is a factor - maybe for many it is all that is needed! To select up front who it is that will not respond in time is the key question. Hence stepped and stratified care models - maybe on a n-of-1 SCED design in a he clinic are…
I'm very excited to announce that I will be moving onto the next chapter of my professional life. Looking forward to hearing about new opportunities!
@MervTravers @Bill_Vicenzino @JaredPowell12 And thus time it’s self is therapy. As is reassurance from what ever source.
@JaredPowell12 @MervTravers @Retlouping thought bubble - natural history being that without treatment - begs the question of what is treatment - is reflecting on a pain experience (as i assume occurred in @MervTravers example) on prompt from a health care professional a treatment? or what is natural history for…
@MervTravers @Bill_Vicenzino @Retlouping Anything that can capably interfere with natural history?
@Retlouping 6/n this is the paper of the RCT bmj.com/content/361/bm…
@Retlouping 5/n this is the wait and see information they received (page 16) ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
@Retlouping 4/n to my surprise she said wait and see! This was repeated to me by others I have met since then. That is the disenfranchisement was not a barrier to improvement!!!
@Retlouping After a focus group (5 participants from LEAP study (GTPS), I was blind to group allocation) we had some tea and eats. One of the participants approached me w gratitude at being in the RCT - as she had gained intensely from the intervention. 2/n
@Retlouping I assumed she had the EDX treatment - so I asked what part of it did she think was responsible for her improvement. She indicated the diagnosis and being told that if she just kept active but not bit too much that she would get better. So I asked which group were you in.
Some people with pain are already very active. What then? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38703009/
@DerekGriffin86 Indeed. We have a conversation with them about their needs, what they want to work towards, how we can help them achieve this, connect and collaborate. There is too much imposition of ideas, models, therapies and nowhere near enough listening and letting the person lead.
@Retlouping 9/n wait and see in our RCT involved a diagnosis (often incl imaging), reassurance, simple advice to keep active/not immob region, and some guide as to pain levels that are ok. So not a do nothing approach. The actual words ‘wait and see’ don’t actually reflect it in a positive…
@Retlouping 8/n I have arrived at a place where I suggest that a simple wait and see approach be considered in most cases of MSK pain - and ramped up in a stepped wise way escalating the complexity/often w inc costs. Perhaps prognostic factors could ID those who get fast tracked

@hjluks This is one of the reasons to ask the patient to repeat back to you what they understood by those 'instructions'. A good question to ask goes something like this: 'what will you be telling/saying your partner/friend/etc when you leave here (at home etc) that we have asked you to…
