Perneros G et al. - The construction of the POP allows the patient to count, and the occupational therapist to investigate, from full level of activity to avoidance and from no pain to worst imaginable pain for each physically loaded task in personal activities of daily living, transfer/transport, instrumental ADL, and social activities. The POP can differentiate between groups concerning level of activity and pain, and appears to be a valid and reliable instrument for evaluating LBP. The POP should be considered for use in both clinical and research applications.
