Abstract

In the November issue of the BJGP, Somerville et al report an interesting systematic review of usual care in low back pain primary care trials.1 They highlight the variability that currently exists in the usual care packages, which function as the comparator treatment in many trials, and point out that the content of treatment in this arm is often inadequately described. They draw our attention to the difficulties associated with the interpretation of results when this comparator treatment is poorly described. We hope their message does not fall on deaf ears.
