First paragraph (this article has no abstract)

Up until now, chronic low back pain without radicular symptoms were not classified and attributed in the international literature as being "unspecific". For specific bracing of this group of patients suffering from low back pain we use simple physical tests to predict the brace type the patient might benefit from. Based on these physical tests we have developed a simple functional classification of "unspecific" low back pain in patients with spinal deformities.
