I detta tvådelade avsnitt så har Erwin fått äran att dyka in i tankarna och kunskapen hos Kjartan Vibe Fersum, associate Professor på universitetet i Bergen, Norge. Huvudtema för samtalet är ’Kognitiv Funktionell Terapi’ (CFT), ett personcentrerat, multidimensionellt terapeutiskt ramverk för omhändertagande av muskuloskeletal smärta, som Kjartan under många år varit delaktig i att utveckla tillsammans med den stjärnspäckade forskargruppen ledd av Peter O’Sullivan. I den första delen av samtalet får ni ta del av Kjartans bakgrund och erfarenhet av historien och utvecklingen av de senaste 20 åren av omhändertagandet av muskuloskeletal smärta samt hur CFT utvecklats. 00:04:34 – Kjartan in 01:31:48 – Kjartan ut Med det massiva problemet som är ländryggsmärta som exempel fortsätter samtalet för att förstå vad CFT är, vad det inte är och anledningen till att det utvecklades. Bland detta behandlas även termer såsom identitet, värderingar, meningsfullhet, sorg och relationen till smärta.

Warriors coach Nathan Brown spoke to Joel and Spudd about taking the reins at the Warriors, recruitment under Peter O"Sullivan and preparation for the 2021 season.

Low back pain is the world's most disabling health condition and costs more than cancer and diabetes combined. A scientific journal article covering 10 facts about low back pain was recently published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine (http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bjsports-2019-101611). The origins and motivations for that paper, as well as patient stories, were covered in episodes 4 and 5 of the podcast. This episode covers in detail low back pain fact number 1: Persistent back pain can be scary, but it’s rarely dangerous with some of the authors: Professor Peter O’Sullivan and Kevin Wernli.

The Warriors have committed to staying in the NRL amid the coronavirus pandemic.Soon after the Australian and New Zealand governments had announced they would close their borders last night, George said the Warriors had met to confirm their desire to remain after spending this week in camp in Kingscliff in northern New South Wales ahead of their second-round game against the Canberra Raiders in Robina tomorrow night.They'll now follow their 'home' game at Cbus Super Stadium with a trip to Sydney to face the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles at Lottoland on Friday, March 27.George said it was a testing time but the group had decided to stay in the competition."The entire squad is locked in and ready to go," said George. "They understand the issues that different individuals got on the table. But they're sticking together ... [The NRL] have called on us and we've stepped up to the task.""If we were told to leave your family and live in another country for an indefinite period, not many would ... we're very proud of the players."The deciding factor was that it's our time to be leaders in the community and rugby league ... we're gonna stand tall and be leaders and take it on."These guys aren't falling away from the challenge ahead." Players had to borrow gear and adapt."Our players have been asked to relocate to another country — unplanned —and continue to play in the competition, away from their families. If that is the case, then we need to make sure they have everything that their normal lives provide them, as much as is possible."That includes time with wives, partners and children, and George indicated that "a number" of families had indicated they would like to make the trip."But who pays, where do they go, where do they stay ... that all needs to be sorted out, in terms of logistics," said George.Wives, partners and children would be required to be in isolation for 14 days on arrival in Australia, and wouldn't be able to stay near the team's Kingscliff base in northern NSW for that reason. After that fortnight, they could relocate to the same area.Meanwhile, the Warriors say they are close to locking down some loan players, who could be added as early as next week.There are 23 players in Australia at coach Stephen Kearney's disposal (four are on development contracts) with another four sent over on Wednesday, although they won't be available until early April (due to isolation requirements)"There is certainly a chance it [loan players] could happen next week ... it's not unrealistic," Warriors recruitment boss Peter O'Sullivan told the Herald. "We need to re-calibrate after injuries and other things we can't foresee [this weekend]. We have some balls being juggled in the air and soon we will be clearer about what we need in the next few weeks and beyond."O'Sullivan has spoken to most clubs — "apart from the ones who are in dire straits with injuries themselves" — and believes Wednesday's cancellation of the second tier state Cup competitions could also change the dynamic."If they can't play reserve grade, the best way to get a run could be giving them a couple of weeks with us," said O'Sullivan. "If players are coming back from injury, they might need a gallop."Round two of the NRL was planned to go ahead this weekend.

Smertevidenskabs Mikkel Vind interviewer i episode 7 af Smerteuniverset Emma Line, som har levet med kroniske bensmerter i 3 år efter et fald på en trappe. Efter faldet tager Emma Line til lægen som sender hende videre til fysioterapeut som konstaterer at der ikke er noget alvorlig galt på trods af det får hun behandling 3 gange om ugen i 10 uger uden effekt. Emma Line som er uddannet feltbiolog og elsker at leve et aktivt liv, men har nu svært ved at gå ned til bussen og muskelmassen forsvinder på benet. Hun bliver opfordret til at søge ny behandler som kombinerer refleksbehandling (RAH) og styrketræning hvilket hjælper hende til at starte med, men over 1 år begynder behandlingseffekten at udeblive i takt med at smerterne bliver mere diffuse og flytter sig. Efter endt behandling klarer hun sig på egen hånd i et års tid men fordi smerterne vedbliver, skaber det bekymringer for at hun stadig har en skade. Smerterne har også spredt sig til halvdelen af kroppen og hun er overbevist om, at hun bruger sin krop forkert. Hun opsøger behandling hos Mikkel Vind med henblik på at få styr på hendes skade og forkerte bevægelser men finder ud af, at vejen til smertefrihed var meget anderledes end hun forventede. Ved første session hos Mikkel Vind som tog 1.5 time lærer Emma Line om de mange forskellige faktorer der kan bidrage til smerte og bliver udfordret på om forkerte bevægemønstre eksisterer. Det var en meget anderledes behandling end Emma Line havde forestillet sig, men efter behandlingen som stort set udelukkende bestod af samtale var hun smertefri på dagen og flere dage efter. I de opfølgende sessioner udfordrer Emma Line sit ben med tung styrketræning og sine overbevisninger omkring smerter som hjælper hende med at genvinde tilliden til hendes krop og komme frygten for hendes smerter til livs. Hovedpunkter for syvende episode: Kan man bevæge sig forkert? Skal genoptræning bestå af specifikke øvelser? Frygt, bekymringer om smerter kan bidrage til smerter. Manglende information omkring andre faktorer der kan bidrage til smerter end skade i behandlingssystemet. Flere behandlere flere diagnoser og kropsfejl. Jagten på diagnose og vished. Frustrationen over ikke at have en diagnose eller forklaring på sine symptomer. Kan man bilde sig selv smerter ind? Betydningen af tillid til den smertefulde kropsdel. Styrketræning som redskab til at genvinde tilliden til kroppen. Friheden ved at forstå sine smerter og ikke være bange for dem. Er skade = smerte og smerte = skade? Behandling af smerter skal individualiseres til den enkelte person. Smerte er ikke en præcis målestok for hvorvidt du har en skade og hvor stor skaden er. Du kan finde din behandler her på vores hjemmeside "If you use avoidance to control your pain, you will lose your life." ~Peter O’Sullivan

In this episode, we’re talking about making sense of beliefs and behaviors in pain care. Our expert guest is Dr. Samantha Bunzli who is a physiotherapist and has worked in clinical practice for several years before undertaking a PhD with Professor Peter O’Sullivan at Curtin University in Australia. Her PhD research was entitled, “A Qualitative Investigation of Pain-Related Fear in People with Low Back Pain.” She is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Melbourne working to optimize treatment outcomes for people with osteoarthritis. Dr. Bunzli’s work is part of an international effort to change the narrative in musculoskeletal pain care. She’s been awarded major grants by the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia to improve evidence-based decision-making among orthopedic surgeons and implement non-surgical care pathways for people with end-stage osteoarthritis. In this episode, you’ll learn why the beliefs people hold about their musculoskeletal pain matter, where do unhelpful beliefs come from, and how the common-sense model could help us understand unhelpful beliefs and behaviors. Samantha describes findings from her qualitative research based on data collected through interviews from both patients as well as clinicians. She is keen to emphasize the qualitative research is more than just the collection of stories. It involves robust methods of data collection and analysis. Rather than going into detail about these methods, Samantha has provided free access to all of her research in which she explains the science behind qualitative research and describes the contribution qualitative approaches can make in the field of pain science. This includes some of her first work in the Journal Of Orthopedic and Sports Physical Therapy. In 2017, an article titled, “Making Sense of Low Back Pain and Pain-Related Fear,” as well as the 2019 study in the Journal of Clinical Orthopedic Simulated Research titled, “Misconceptions and the Acceptance of Evidence-Based Nonsurgical Interventions for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Qualitative Study.” Let’s learn about how the common-sense model can help us understand unhelpful beliefs and behaviors when it comes to chronic musculoskeletal pain with Dr. Samantha Bunzli.

Meet and network with some of the most passionate game changers in our profession. Click HERE to find out more and get started for our January 2020 cohort! ___________________________________________ Low back pain, posture, and movement seem like they would have a super obvious relationship. Bad posture would cause low back pain, right??? Or “poor” movement will cause low back pain, right??? These commonly held perceptions around the causes of low back pain are deeply engrained into our societies folk and academic healthcare models. But this can be very problematic when not audited and investigated in the form of negative attitudes and beliefs surrounding why people hurt. Enter: Kevin Wernli, a Physio and PhD student under the likes of Peter O Sullivan and team out of Australia who is investigating exactly these claims! This episode was a fantastic opportunity to have a discussion around this very important topic with someone who is in the trenches of academia taking a deeper look at these commonly held beliefs! We discuss how things like posture and movement ARE important, but probably not as important as we think… More importantly, we discuss a framework for what current best practice might look like when treating patients with low back pain. We think this episode will be extremely helpful for new graduates and students looking to have insight into what psychologically informed practice looks like in action. Kevin has attached a link with all relevant show notes organized! Enjoy!   Show Notes: www.kevinwernli.com/levelup

Steadying Our Understanding with the Evidence Low back pain is one of the most prevalent, costly, and complex issues we face in rehab and medicine as a whole. It has been proposed that a large portion of back pain cases are due to core weakness or, as it’s commonly referred to, instability. This idea originated from the work of Paul Hodges and Peter O’Sullivan in the early 1990s. The idea caught like wild fire, infiltrating university level classes, continuing professional education courses, and subsequently shaping societal beliefs about backs and back pain causes. Fitness, rehabilitation, and medical professionals frequently blame back pain on an unstable or weak core. Consequentially, patients believe that, if they experience back pain, they must be weak and unstable in their spines. Yet, what does the current best evidence tell us about this topic? Has this theory strengthened, or has it failed to keep up with more rigorous investigation? Finally, what implications could this clinical framework have on patient outcomes and resilience surrounding the most common musculoskeletal complaint in the world? (Recorded at PAINWeek 2018)

This week, on Pain Reframed, Dr. Tim Flynn and Dr. Jeff Moore are joined by Dr. Peter O’Sullivan.  Peter is Professor of Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy at Curtin University, in Perth, Australia. In addition to his teaching and research at Curtin University, he works in clinical practice as a Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist (as awarded by the Australian College of Physiotherapists in 2005). He is recognized internationally as a leading clinician, researcher and educator in the management of complex musculoskeletal pain disorders. Tim, Jeff, and Peter discuss being authentic with patients and walking alongside with them in ways the medical industrialized complex doesn’t.  Peter shares his success story of deeply caring for patients for a long time and being willing to drop his pride and ego when the patient wasn’t getting better.  It’s allowed him to learn, to grow, and to, ultimately, help patients so much more. Don’t forget to save the date: June 8-10, 2018 in Denver, Colorado, the Align Conference will be taking place, focusing on neuropathic (nerve) pain.  All of the various concepts of calming the nerves down will be covered at this conference.

Dr. O'Sullivan developed and continues to refine the cognitive functional therapy model for treating low back pain. He shows how to effectively use exposure therapy for people with pain, and how to make sense of pain whether you're a practitioner or a patient. Dr. O'Sullivan is a professor of Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy at Curtin University in Perth, Australia. In addition to his teaching and research, he works in clinical practice as a physiotherapist. He is recognized internationally as a leading clinician, researcher, and educator in the management of complex musculoskeletal pain disorders.   Sign up for the latest episode at www.drjoetatta.com/podcasts.   Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

LISTEN ABOVE AS PETER PETERS SPEAKS TO RADIO SPORT BREAKFASTA veteran rugby league commentator has launched a sensational attack on the Warriors management - and in particular the club's chief executive Cameron George - for cutting ties with star halfback Shaun Johnson.Johnson was granted a release from the final year of his contract on Wednesday, after the club informed him they wouldn't extend his deal next year, despite eight seasons at Mt Smart.Former Manly official and Sky Sport radio commentator Peter Peters has slammed the move for being "stunning, undignified, unnecessary, and overreactive" and claims the Warriors have stolen thousands of young New Zealand league fans' hero.Warriors CEO Cameron George and head coach Stephen Kearney have been slammed by Peter Peters. Photo / Getty"Thousands of kids must be waking up in New Zealand today with the No 7 jersey, wondering what the heck is going on. They've had their hero stolen from them - virtually kicked out of the club he's been so much a part of," Peters told the Radio Sport Breakfast."He's a special player. He's the highest point scorer in the history of the club. He is to New Zealand rugby league what JT [Johnathan Thurston] was to Australian rugby league."The controversial Peters blames the "Australian influence" at the Warriors for Johnson's departure."From this side of the ditch, it seems the Aussie influence of Brian Smith (the Warriors' general manager football), Todd Payton (new assistant coach), Peter O'Sullivan (recruitment manager), and a wet-behind-the-ears in terms of being a rugby league CEO shoving the face of the game in New Zealand [in it] and Shaun Johnson out the door."There's no other way to look at it. They virtually did it while he [Johnson] was on tour in the UK with the Kiwis. That makes it worse, it appears the Warriors have fallen in the old trap of having too many influential people."Peters is particularly severe in his criticism of George, who joined the Warriors last year after great success as CEO of Auckland Racing, and head coach Stephen Kearney."The coach has been significant in his absence in all this.

We talk about this new regime at the Warriors, about how everyone's accountable …well they came in eighth. Are we celebrating eight? If we are, you might as well not be in the NRL."Johnson is expected to ink a three-year deal with the Cronulla Sharks and on Friday thanked his (now former) captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck for his support on social media."Damn its gonna be weird playing the boys.

“The health care system faces enormous challenges, with both the disability burden and financial impact relating to LBP escalating.  Growing evidence suggests that current treatments and surgeries is conflicting with the evidence today, and is in fact often worsening the problem.  Change will demand a cultural shift in beliefs and practice.” Unraveling the Complexity of Low Back Pain Peter O’Sullivan, PT, PhD Mary O’Keefe, PT, PhD J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2016;46(11):932-937. doi:10.2519/jospt.2016.0609 In this episode we’ll be reviewing one of the most comprehensive research papers written on Low Back Pain. We’ll read what we believe are the most relevant sections, and interpret them the into simple terms. You’re going to love this episode!   With all due respect to Peter O'Sullivan, some interpretations of his findings may reflect the MoveU Philosophy. 

Interview recorded as part of the low back pain course on Physiopedia Plus. Peter O’Sullivan is from physiotherapist originally from New Zealand. He completed later his post graduate manipulative training in Australia. He is a musculoskeletal professor at University of Curtin in Perth, Australia. He is well known internationally as a clinician, researcher and professor of musculoskeletal pain disorders. During the most recent Physiopedia interview, Peter discusses the multidimensional components of pain. He discusses pain beliefs and behaviors and how it affects clinical practice and research. His research focuses on the cognitive functional approach in the lumbar spine largely due to the number of cases that present clinically. Peter discusses how movement related to pain is largely behavioral. Over protecting painful structures because of fear often times causes compensatory issues. Physiotherapists should consider address retraining movement into a means of moving without compensatory pain patterns. Ultimately retraining the concept that movement is safe is key. There are three components of pain that should be addressed: Cognitive behavioral beliefs-pain beliefs Functional behavioral aspect-movement patterns Lifestyle adaptations due to pain and avoidance of activities Peter discusses how picking up a shoe demonstrates motor control patterns that may be pain related. He recommends using a questioning for helping patients to problem solve a more effective pattern of movement without driving compensatory pain such as tensing up when doing particular movements. Peter additionally discusses the difficulty of imaging with MRI. People who pursue imaging typically will have some pathoanatomical finding. This can further complicate pain processing and behaviors within movement patterns. People tend to grasp onto imaging findings and act in a protective manner towards what they perceive to be a significant finding on imaging despite our beliefs that it may at times be incidental. Peter discusses how when patients discuss the lack of benefits with therapy and how it is more helpful in the learning process. In these cases, stress may negatively impact pain and cause flares. Educating patients to focus on extra care towards their body in more stressful times is important. Focusing on good sleep patterns, eating a health diet, avoiding alcohol, maintaining an exercise program, utilizing relaxation techniques are strategies helpful in decreasing sensitivity within the body. It is important for us as physiotherapists to educate our patients on these principles.

LIVE from Combined Sections Meeting, this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast features Professor Peter O’Sullivan discussing elements of the biopsychosocial model for chronic pain management. Peter O’Sullivan is Professor of Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy at Curtin University, Perth, Australia. In addition to his teaching and research at Curtin University, he works in clinical practice as a Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist (as awarded by the Australian College of Physiotherapists in 2005) in Perth, Australia. He is recognized internationally as a leading clinician, researcher and educator in the management of complex musculoskeletal pain disorders.   In this episode, we discuss: -Why you should validate your patient’s pain experience, understand their beliefs and fears, and disconfirm them through behavioral learning -The link between a practitioner’s language and self-efficacy -The informal and non-threatening art of Peter’s initial examination -Maintaining professional boundaries with chronic pain patients and avoiding burn out -And so much more!   One of the strongest influences to better treatment outcomes for chronic pain patients is trust in the therapeutic alliance. “You’ve got to build a strong therapeutic relationship,” Peter suggests if you want to see patient’s engage in their program and take more control over their pain.   Treating chronic pain patients can be challenging. With the right evaluation framework and understanding of neuroscience, Peter believes you can make instant impact for the patient. Peter stresses, “The nervous system is so damn plastic. If you can get to the heart of what someone is thinking and feeling. Validate it and take them on a journey—it can break that schema up.”   Peter is critical of therapeutic techniques in physical therapy when in fact a majority of patients would benefit from relaxation strategies and progressive loading. He suggests, “I think we undermine how smart the body is…someone who gets in trouble is someone who is too hyper vigilant and probably obsessed with their technique.”   For more information on Peter: Peter is the Professor of Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy at Curtin University, West Australia and is a Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist (as awarded by the Australian College of Physiotherapists in 2005). His private clinic is Body Logic Physiotherapy in Perth www.bodylogicphysiotherapy.com.au. Peter has an international reputation for clinical research investigating the development, multi-dimensional assessment and targeted management of chronic spinal pain disorders. He has also developed a management approach for chronic low back pain – called ‘cognitive functional therapy’. He has published over 190 papers with his team in international peer review journals, has presented the findings of his research at more than 90 National and International conferences and has run clinical workshops in over 24 countries. Peter’s expertise is linking of clinical research to the clinical setting.

Professor Peter O’Sullivan is among the top 3 most popular physiotherapy voices on podcasts and here he focuses on myths and harmful beliefs about back pain. He takes a swing at clinicians who rely excessively on imaging findings to attempt to explain the source of pain. He shares the story of a clinician who told a patient his spine was ‘shredded’. Prof O’Sullivan emphasizes the importance of history taking, finding factors that can sensitize neural tissue and gives an overview of treatment. He will be the keynote Refshauge Lecturer at Sports Medicine Australia’s 2016 Conference (#SMAConf16, @SMA_Events). Timeline: 0.35 m - A sneak preview of the Refshaughe lecture plan – back pain is a big problem and those in sport can learn from what is known in back pain in the general population 2.17 m - Patients respond well to a combination of explanation, being shown ways they can get back to the things they love to do, and appropriate progressive exercises 4.21 m - A case where a patient could have been treated with early investigation, aggressive medical intervention, potentially surgery. An alternative approach to management 6.48 m - How junior clinicians can approach the patient who presents with a bag of images or a medical note that may not reflect current best practice for managing back pain 9.45 m - The biology of how neural tissue can be sensitized by lack of sleep, stress. Fascinating neuroimmunology 10.55 m - You do treat the back don’t you? It’s not just explaining pain, counseling? 12.30 m - Parallels with work of other physiotherapists such as Prof Jill Cook (@ProfJillCook) and Dr Alison Grimaldi (@alisongrimaldi) who advocate for progressive loading as a stimulus for healing. “Backs love movement” 13.55 m - A 30-second summary!

Sports physiotherapists provide evidence-based treatment for back pain. Unfortunately surgery for back pain has rather poor outomes. Tiger Woods has spinal surgery on March 31, 2014 and did not return to his previous level of play. He went under the knife again on September 16, 2015. In this podcast, Curtin University’s Professor Peter O’Sullivan comments on the risks and possible benefits of surgery in an elite golfer.

This week we talk to recruitment officer Peter O'sullivan, journalist Peter Orinuela and as requested by the fans centre Blake Ferguson.

This is a podcast with Peter O Sullivan ( Curtin University) recorded for the MACP by Matthew Lowe and Uzo Ehiogu in March 2015.

Peter O’Sullivan has two recent BJSM podcasts (see below). In this podcast he shares his thoughts on the recent media attention around Tiger Woods' obvious back pain while playing in the US PGA. He discusses what the pathology might be, why the media suggested that Mr Woods’ ‘sacrum went out’. He contends that ‘core strengthening’ may not be the panacea. The lessons apply to the management of low back pain, and other pain, in a myriad of settings.

Who are the biggest names in the back pain world? Correct – Peter O’Sullivan is one of them. He's provocative, clinically-relevant, and vastly experienced. He’s desperate to help patients, that’s obvious! But not everyone has to agree. Listen to his take on management of both chronic, and acute, back pains – does it make sense to you?

Did you listen to Ray Moynihan’s podcast on ‘’Overdiagnosis in sports medicine”? That’s a ‘gold’ podcast (>5000 listens) and Peter O’Sullivan now extends those ideas into the realm of sports physiotherapy. “We can massively create health problems” warns Prof O’Sullivan speaking about the way clinicians may explain pathology to patients. If not explained appropriately, MRI and other imaging can have a negative effect on a patient’s perception of injury. Pete refers to this free paper in RADIOLOGY: McCullough et al. Lumbar MR imaging and reporting epidemiology: do epidemiologic data in reports affect clinical management? Radiology. 2012 Mar;262(3):941-6. doi: 10.1148/radiol.11110618.

Over-diagnosis, over-treatment and industry influence. Surely not in sports medicine? Ray Moynihan is an internationally renowned contributor in the battle to limit any inappropriate influence of pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and technology companies on good clinical practice. He shares his concerns about the role of drug/implant companies but also argues that clinicians may well be contributing to suboptimal care – almost subconsciously. This is relevant for conditions such as femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The issue of ‘preventive’ surgery to prevent future arthritis in currently pain-free hips is a massive issue in sports medicine of course. How do we know which patients need this treatment? Enjoy this podcast from a voice outside BJSM’s traditional network of physiotherapists, physicians, massage therapists, clinicians working with active people. When we planned the podcast, Ray Moynihan said he didn’t know about sport but I think you’ll agree that what he offers is hugely relevant to sport and exercise medicine. Thanks Ray!
