Journal Article
Protheroe, J., Saunders, B., Hill, J., Chudyk, A., Foster, N., Bartlam, B., …Cooper, V. (2021). Integrating clinician support with intervention design as part of a programme testing stratified care for musculoskeletal pain in general practice. BMC Family Practice, 22, Article 161. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12875-021-01507-8

BACKGROUND: Stratified care involves subgrouping patients based on key characteristics, e.g. prognostic risk, and matching these subgroups to early treatment options. The STarT-MSK programme developed and tested a new stratified primary care interven...

Computer-Based Stratified Primary Care for Musculoskeletal Consultations Compared With Usual Care: Study Protocol for the STarT MSK Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial. JMIR Research Protocols, 9(7), https://doi.org/10.2196/17939

BACKGROUND: Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is a major cause of pain and disability. We previously developed a prognostic tool (STarT Back Tool) with demonstrated effectiveness in guiding primary care low back pain management by supporting decision-making...

Background: Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain from the five most common presentations to primary care (back, neck, shoulder, knee or multi-site pain), where the majority of patients are managed, is a costly global health challenge. At present, first-line de...

Background
Improving primary care management of musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is a priority. A pilot cluster RCT tested prognostic stratified care for patients with common MSK pain presentations, including low back pain, in 8 UK general practices (4 st...
