Association Between Pain-Related Kinesiophobia and Sedentary Behavior in Older Patients with Lumbar Spine Disease

Key Points

To examine the relationship between pain-related kinesiophobia and sedentary behavior in older patients with lumbar spine disease.
Assess kinesiophobia and sedentary behavior in older patients
Evaluate physical activity levels to analyze associations
Identify potential treatment strategies based on findings
Increased kinesiophobia correlates with higher levels of sedentary behavior
Kinesiophobia influences sedentary behavior independent of physical activity
Addressing kinesiophobia may improve treatment outcomes by reducing sedentary behavior

Abstract

Our results suggest that increased kinesiophobia may be associated with increased SB, independent of PA. Addressing kinesiophobia in older patients with lumbar spine disease may prevent a decrease in PA and increase in SB, thereby offering a new treatment strategy.
