Brief Summary: The pilot study precedes a larger randomized controlled trial, to be starting in February 2019. In this pilot study all participants are allocated to the intervention group. The intervention consists of a digital decision support system delivering a weekly plan of suggested activities that the participant can use to self-manage their low back pain. The plan is presented to the participant in the selfBACK app.
Detailed Description: The selfBACK intervention consists of the selfBACK system, that provides the participants with an individually tailored weekly plan of suggested activities to use in their self-management of low back pain. The SELFBACK system constitutes a data-driven predictive decision support system that uses Case-Based Reasoning methodology to capture and reuse participant cases in order to suggest the most suitable self-management plan for participants. The selfBACK system is an intelligent system that will adjust the suggested self-management plan to the individual participants by using the information available on the participant (baseline questionnaires), weekly self-reported of changes in health status through the app, and data on physical activity via the step-detecting wristband. The weekly plan includes three categories of content; 1) information/education, 2) physical activity monitoring through wearing a step-detecting wristband, and 3) strength and flexibility exercises.
