Low Back Pain CPG (2021 Update)

David Smelser and Austin Kercheville
About this episode

We're back! This is the first time we have had to revisit a topic due to a CPG update, and the relationship between the 2012 and 2021 LBP CPG is complicated. To make things worse, the 2021 CPG was pretty controversial when it was released. How should you use these two documents to prepare for the OCS?  We cover it here.
