OBJECTIVES: Little is known about the epidemiology of neuropathic pain in primary care patients consulting with low back-related leg pain. We aimed to describe prevalence, characteristics and clinical course of low back-related leg pain patients with...

Computer-Based Stratified Primary Care for Musculoskeletal Consultations Compared With Usual Care: Study Protocol for the STarT MSK Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial. (2020)
Journal Article
Hill, J., Garvin, S., Chen, Y., Cooper, V., Wathall, S., Bartlam, B., …Foster, N. E. (2020). 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...

Stratified versus usual care for the management of primary care patients with sciatica: the SCOPiC RCT (2020)
Journal Article
Foster, N. E., Konstantinou, K., Lewis, M., Ogollah, R., Saunders, B., Kigozi, J., …Dunn, K. M. (2020). Stratified versus usual care for the management of primary care patients with sciatica: the SCOPiC RCT. Health Technology Assessment, 2(7), e401-e411. https://doi.org/10.3310/hta24490

BACKGROUND: Sciatica has a substantial impact on patients and society. Current care is 'stepped', comprising an initial period of simple measures of advice and analgesia, for most patients, commonly followed by physiotherapy, and then by more intensi...

Stratified care versus usual care for management of patients presenting with sciatica in primary care (SCOPiC): a randomised controlled trial (2020)
Journal Article

Background Sciatica has a substantial impact on individuals and society. Stratified care has been shown to lead to better outcomes among patients with non-specific low back pain, but it has not been tested for sciatica. We aimed to investigate the c...

Risk factors for non-specific neck pain in young adults. A systematic review. (2020)
Journal Article
Dunn. (2020). Risk factors for non-specific neck pain in young adults. A systematic review. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-020-03379-y

BACKGROUND: Young adulthood is a sensitive period of life where development of musculoskeletal neck pain may be established and impact future health. The objective of this systematic review was to investigate risk factors for non-specific neck pain i... Read More about Risk factors for non-specific neck pain in young adults. A systematic review..

Sleep problems increase the risk of musculoskeletal pain in boys but not girls: a prospective cohort study (2020)
Journal Article
Andreucci, A., Campbell, P., Mundy, L. K., Sawyer, S. M., Kosola, S., Patton, G. C., & Dunn, K. M. (2020). Sleep problems increase the risk of musculoskeletal pain in boys but not girls: a prospective cohort study. European Journal of Pediatrics, 179(11), 1711–1719. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00431-020-03667-8

Adults with sleep problems are at higher risk for onset of musculoskeletal pain, but the evidence is less clear for children. This prospective cohort study investigated whether children with sleep problems are at higher risk for onset of musculoskele...

BMC Family Practice, 21, Article 30. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12875-019-1074-9

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...
