Assessment and management of neurogenic claudication associated with lumbar spinal stenosis in a UK primary care musculoskeletal service: a survey of current practice among physiotherapists
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 10/08/09
Comer CM et al. – Musculoskeletal physiotherapy clinicians in this survey recognised a clear clinical syndrome of NC, based on the findings of posture–dependent symptoms.

There is a need for research evidence to guide the choice of physiotherapy treatments.
