CBO-richtlijn 'Aspecifieke lage rugklachten' sterk vergelijkbaar met de standaard 'Lage-rugpijn' van het Nederlands Huisartsen Genootschap

- The Dutch Institute for Healthcare Improvement's (CBO) guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of aspecific, acute and chronic, low back complaints corresponds in general to the Dutch College of General Practitioners’ guideline with regard to the following topics: time-contingent treatment, restricted use of X-ray examination, and the options for non-medical treatment. A noteworthy exception in the CBO-guideline is the suggestion of manipulation of the spine as a possible treatment although there is no mention of proof of effectiveness.
