DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA
ACR
A-D
American College of Rheumatology RA Classification Criteria
Target population is patients who:
Have at least one joint with clinical synovitis
The synovitis is not better explained by another disease
Classification criteria for RA use a score-based algorithm in which categories A-D are added together. Score of ≥6 classifies the patient as having RA:
A. Joint Involvement (tender or swollen):
1 large joint = 0
2-10 large joints = 1
1-3 small joints (with or without involvement of large joints) = 2
4-10 small joints (with or without involvement of large joints) = 3
>10 joints with at least 1 small joint = 5
B. Serology (at least one needed for classification):
Negative RF and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) = 0
Low-positive rheumatoid factor (RF) or low-positive ACPA = 2
High-positive RF or high-positive ACPA = 3
C. Acute phase reactants (at least 1):
Normal CRP & ESR = 0
Abnormal C-reactive protein (CRP) or Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) = 1
D. Duration of symptoms (patient reported):
<6 weeks = 0
>6 weeks = 1
note now we have ccp
DIAGNOSTIC TESTING

LOWER BACK PAIN
SPINAL SLIPPAGE
deifinition
spondylolisthesis (spinal slippage)
If the pain is only located at the low back, it is considered axial back pain
AXIAL ISthe part of the skeleton that consists of the bones of the head and trunk of a vertebrate. In the human skeleton, it consists of 80 bones and is composed of six parts; the skull (22 bones), also the ossicles of the middle ear, the hyoid bone, the rib cage, sternum and the vertebral column.
MECHANICAL - RADIATES INTO BUTTOCKS AND POSTERIOR THIGHS-IF FOLLOWS DERMATOME IT IS RADICULOPATHY-CONSIDER SPINAL NERVE COMPRESSION
LBP CAUSES
STRETCH/TEAR OF NERVE MUSCLE LIGAMENT, DISCS OR FASCIA OF BACK FROM TRAUMA OR CHRONIC STRESS
SX OF DEGERNATIVE DISC DX OR HERNIATION
USU L4-L5, L5-S1
ARTICLE ON PE AND DX TESTS
Observe the patient walking into the office or examining room
Observe the patient's sitting posture and look for any signs of discomfort, during the history-gathering portion of the visit
Observe how the patient removes his/her shoes
Observe the patient's standing posture
Measure blood pressure, pulse, respirations, temperature, height, and weight
Inspect the back for signs of asymmetry, lesions, scars, trauma, or previous surgery
Note chest expansion: If < 2.5 cm, this finding can be specific, but not sensitive, for ankylosing spondylitis
Take measurements of the calf circumferences (at midcalf). Differences of less than 2 cm are considered normal variation
Measure lumbar range of motion (ROM) in forward bending while standing (Schober test)
Neurologic examination should test 2 muscles and 1 reflex representing each lumbar root to distinguish between focal neuropathy and root problems
Measure leg lengths (anterior superior iliac spine to medial malleolus) if side-to-side discrepancy is suspected-CAN LEAD TO LBP
Use the inclinometer to measure forward, backward, and lateral bending. With the goniometer positioned over the head, measure trunk rotation
Palpate the entire spine to identify vertebral tenderness that may be a nonspecific finding of fracture or other cause of low back pain
Test for manual muscle strength in both lower extremities.
Test for sensation and reflexes
Imaging studies: Persistent pain may require computed tomography (CT) scanning, diskography, and 3-phase bone scanning
Electrodiagnostic studies: Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS) can aid in evaluating neurologic symptoms and/or deficits detected on examination
ARTICLE ON DX TESTS
If the history elicits reports of fever, night sweats, and chills that might suggest other causes for the low back pain, then, at a minimum, obtain a CBC count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and urinalysis to rule out cancer or infection. Serum and urine electrophoresis studies may help to rule out multiple myeloma at an early stage when radiographic imaging studies appear negative or inconclusive.
ARTICLE ON MGT GOALS
Management of mechanical low back pain can be outlined in the following 6 steps:
Control of pain and the inflammatory process
Restoration of joint ROM and soft tissue extensibility
Improvement of muscular strength and endurance
Coordination retraining
Improvement of general cardiovascular condition
Maintenance exercise programs
Surgical interventions for mechanical low back pain (LBP) are the last choice for treatment.
Pharmacological interventions for the relief of low back pain include acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, topical analgesics, muscle relaxants, opioids, corticosteroids, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants.
