Evidence-based management of acute musculoskeletal pain

This document provides information on the management of acute pain, communication between clinicians and consumers, and the diagnosis, prognosis and interventions for acute low back, thoracic spine, neck, shoulder and anterior knee pain. The document is concerned only with the management of acute episodes of pain (less than 3 months duration) that are no associated with specific diseases and serious conditions.

DISCLAIMER

Every attempt has been made to locate the most recent scientific evidence. Judgment is necessary when

applying evidence in a clinical setting. It is important to note that weak evidence does not necessarily

mean that a practice is unadvisable, but may reflect the insufficiency of evidence or the limitations of

scientific investigation.

This document is intended as a guide to practice. The ultimate decision of how to proceed rests with

the clinician and the patient and depends on individual circumstances and beliefs (NHMRC 1999).
