Journal Article
Stynes, S., Konstantinou, K., Dunn, K., Lewis, M., & Hay, E. (2014). AGREEMENT AMONG THERAPISTS WHEN DIAGNOSING LOW BACK-RELATED LEG PAIN. Orthopaedic Proceedings, 96-B(S4), 4-4

Background Pain with radiation to the leg is a common presentation in back pain patients. Radiating leg pain is either referred pain or radicular, commonly described as sciatica. Clinically distinguishing between these types of leg pain is recognize... Read More about AGREEMENT AMONG THERAPISTS WHEN DIAGNOSING LOW BACK-RELATED LEG PAIN.

COST-EFFECTIVENESS OF JOINT PROTECTION AND HAND EXERCISE FOR HAND OSTEOARTHRITIS (2013)
Journal Article
Oppong, R., Jowett, S., Nicholls, E., Whitehurst, D., Hill, S., Hammond, A., …Dziedzic, K. (2013). COST-EFFECTIVENESS OF JOINT PROTECTION AND HAND EXERCISE FOR HAND OSTEOARTHRITIS. Rheumatology, 52(S1),

Background: European guidelines have proposed that joint protection and hand exercise should be used in the management of hand OA. However, the evidence regarding the cost-effectiveness of these interventions has not been well established. A 2x2 fact...

Background Management of musculoskeletal conditions in the UK is increasingly delivered in multidisciplinary clinical assessment and treatment services (CATS) at the primary–secondary care interface. However, there is little evidence concerning the c... Read More about Musculoskeletal clinical assessment and treatment services at the primary-secondary care interface: an observational study.

Exploring the cost-utility of stratified primary care management for low back pain compared with current best practice within risk-defined subgroups. (2012)
Journal Article
Hill, & Hay. (2012). Exploring the cost-utility of stratified primary care management for low back pain compared with current best practice within risk-defined subgroups. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 1796 - 1802

OBJECTIVES: Stratified management for low back pain according to patients' prognosis and matched care pathways has been shown to be an effective treatment approach in primary care. The aim of this within-trial study was to determine the economic impl...
