Abstract

Background: Low back pain (LBP) poses a significant global health burden where a biopsychosocial model of care has been recommended. Physiotherapists (PTs) play a crucial role in LBP management; however, their attitudes and beliefs towards LBP were not reviewed in detail.

Objective: This systematic review aims to summarise the attitudes and beliefs of PTs towards LBP and the factors influencing them.

Methods: The review protocol and methods adhere to the PRISMA-P and Meta Analyses and Systematic Reviews for Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) guidelines. A comprehensive search of PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Web of Science, PEDro and Ovid databases will be conducted to search for cross-sectional studies evaluating PTs' attitudes and beliefs towards LBP. Two reviewers will independently screen the articles, conduct data extraction and assess methodological quality using the Joanna Briggs Institute's critical appraisal tool for prevalence studies. Data synthesis will involve a narrative synthesis of study characteristics, attitudes, beliefs, and methodological quality. If feasible, a meta-analysis will be performed to quantify the pooled effects.

Conclusion: Despite the emphasis on biopsychosocial approaches for managing LBP, the adoption of such approaches in physiotherapy practice is still suboptimal, with attitudes and beliefs of PTs being considered an important factor influencing treatment practices. Our review will summarise the literature on attitudes and beliefs of PTs towards LBP. Such knowledge would inform the need for development of additional interventions addressing the attitudes and beliefs that would eventually enhance the update of the biopsychosocial model of care in physiotherapy management of LBP.

物理治疗师在腰背痛治疗中的态度和信念：系统性审查协议。

背景：腰背痛（LBP）对全球健康造成了重大负担，建议采用生物-心理-社会护理模式。物理治疗师（PTs）在腰背痛治疗中发挥着至关重要的作用；然而，他们对腰背痛的态度和信念却未得到详细综述：本系统综述旨在总结物理治疗师对枸杞多糖症的态度和信念以及影响因素：综述方案和方法符合 PRISMA-P 和流行病学观察性研究的元分析和系统综述 (MOOSE) 指南。我们将对 PubMed、Scopus、CINAHL、Web of Science、PEDro 和 Ovid 数据库进行全面检索，寻找评估康复治疗师对腰背痛的态度和信念的横断面研究。两名审稿人将独立筛选文章，进行数据提取，并使用乔安娜-布里格斯研究所的流行病学研究批判性评估工具评估方法学质量。数据综合将包括对研究特点、态度、信念和方法质量的叙述性综合。如果可行，还将进行荟萃分析，以量化汇总效果：尽管治疗腰椎间盘突出症的生物心理社会方法受到重视，但在物理治疗实践中采用此类方法的情况仍不理想，物理治疗师的态度和信念被认为是影响治疗实践的重要因素。我们的综述将总结有关物理治疗师对腰椎间盘突出症的态度和信念的文献。这些知识将帮助我们了解是否有必要针对态度和信念制定更多干预措施，从而最终促进生物心理社会护理模式在腰椎间盘突出症物理治疗管理中的更新。
