Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the proposed study is to evaluate knowledge on low back pain and gesture behavior among nurses with low back pain using validated measures and compare the findings to those from nurses without back pain.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A controlled, cross-sectional study will be carried out with 100 nurses (50 with low back pain and 50 without low back pain). The following assessment measures will be employed: Visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, Gesture Behavior Test (GBT), Low Back Pain Knowledge Questionnaire (LKQ), Roland Morris Questionnaire and the SF-36.
