[Readmission rates of back pain patients after primarily conservative inpatient treatment at a university hospital].

Background: The number of patients receiving inpatient treatment for back pain is increasing, as the current structures of outpatient care cannot meet the demand adequately.

Objectives: Analysis of the readmission rates of primarily conservatively treated inpatients with back pain.
