Description
Camila Nepomuceno Broisler and co-authors set out a trial plan in 2026 for back pain care given by video link. Lasting low back pain is common, and movement is a core part of care. Yet cost, distance, and low drive keep many patients from in-person therapy.
The trial in Brazil will enroll 160 adults with lasting low back pain. Half will get live video therapy and half will get face-to-face care. Both arms get seven hour-long sessions over 12 weeks, with pain teaching and self-care plans. The lead checks are whether patients stick with care and how much pain they feel. Cost checks run beside the health checks. If video care holds up, it could widen access in a middle-income land.
