> Abstract presented at: The 3rd Interdisciplinary

> 19-21 November 1998 Vienna, Austria.
> Editors: A. Vleeming, V. Mooney, H. Tilscher

> Authors:

> The last paragraph of the Abstract reads:
>
> "These results confirm the clinical observation that
> LBP subjects are less able to precisely maintain the
> neutral lumbopelvic posture than their non LBP
> counterparts. The study thus provides evidence that
> the focus on exercises involving precise control of

> Dear All,
>
> This is a request for information about any questionnaires that
> anybody has used or knows of which can be used to screen for spinal
> problems (particularily in the lumbar spine). We are planning a small
>
> scale pilot study to look at lumbar stability in a 'normal
> population' and are therefore looking for a measure which can be
> applied to a healthy spine as well as a potentially 'unhealthy'
> spine.
>
> The questionnaire will be used as part of the screening process for
> the study and to categorise the participants. Most of the
> questionnaires I have at present such as the Aberdeen and SF36, seem
> to have been constructed with pathology in mind.
>
> Thank you for the help
