Design and development of a decision support package for low back pain.

Objective: To develop a decision support package for people with low back pain (LBP) referred for physiotherapy.

Methods: We used a program of exploratory work, including literature reviews, a Delphi study, a nominal group with physiotherapists, focus groups with patients, and secondary analysis of existing interview data.

Results: We developed an information booklet describing the evidence-based treatment modalities available in a physiotherapy department.
