SUMMARY:Amy Baxter\, MD - Interrupting Paraspinal Progression From Acute To
  Chronic Low Back Pain: Mechanistic Hypotheses
DESCRIPTION:Interrupting paraspinal progression&nbsp\;from acute to chronic
  low back pain: mechanistic hypotheses.
 &nbsp\;
 Low back pain is the s
 ingle biggest contributor to intractable disability worldwide\, and the si
 ngle largest cause of non-cancer opioid&nbsp\;prescribing in the US.
 Res
 ults from an NIH/NIDA Help End Addiction Longterm project comparing&nbsp\;
  mechanical vs. electrical noninvasive stimulation devices were published 
 last year.&nbsp\;Compared to electric stimulation\, multiple frequencies o
 f mechanical stimulation significantly reduced opioid use\, prescribing\, 
 acute progression to chronic low back pain.&nbsp\;Based on these results a
 nd a recently submitted secondary analysis of responder characteristics\, 
 the most likely hypothesis is that different frequencies are having a grea
 ter effect on early muscular transition to chronic pain than central sensi
 tization or self-efficacy.
 &nbsp\;
 This talk will briefly cover the im
 plications of the LBP treatment trajectory in the US\, from spine surgery 
 to spinal cord stimulation to a biopsychosocial model and recent research 
 on the neurostimulation restoration of muscles.&nbsp\; The underpinning ph
 ysiology of mechanical stimulation frequencies for indirect and direct eff
 ects on fascia to prevent chronic pain will be emphasized.
