Cost-Effectiveness of Lumbar Supports for Home Care Workers With Recurrent Low Back Pain

Abstract

Lumbar support seems to be a cost-effective addition to usual care for home care workers with recurrent LBP. For estimating the LBP-related indirect costs, it would be more precise when an objective measure for LBP-related sick leave would have been available. There is a need for more evidence to confirm these findings, also in other working populations.
