Chronic (>12 weeks) Idiopathic Adults 18+ Measurement (pain, ROM) Single massage treatment Inconclusive (no reported adverse events) A single massage can safely improve reported pain and ROM in adults with chronic, idiopathic back pain Mixed methods w/small sample Aggregated massage clinic records Any reported adverse events for back pain (primary) VAS, aclve trunk flexion (secondary) Frequency distribulon of adverse events DescripLves (cross- tab, frequency distribulon) ANOVA, paired sample t- test Example #2: Efficacy Overall Ques3on OperaLonalize Literature review results Research hypothesis ProspecBve design idea Secondary data source Variables Analysis approach Can massage improve back pain? Chronic (>12 weeks) Idiopathic Adults 18+ Measurement (pain, ROM) Single massage treatment Inconclusive (double- blinding not possible, small samples for quasi- experimental trials, small body of research) A single massage can improve reported pain and ROM in adults with chronic, idiopathic back pain compared to no treatment Quasi- experimental w/small sample Aggregated massage clinic records VAS, aclve trunk flexion ANOVA, paired t- test 6

7 Example #3: ComparaLve Efficacy Overall Ques3on OperaLonalize Literature review results Research hypothesis??? ProspecBve design idea Data source Variables Analysis approach How many massage treatments relieve back pain? Chronic (>12 weeks) Idiopathic Adults 18+ Measurement (pain, ROM) Massage treatment >30 minutes duralon Inconclusive (double- blinding not possible, few trials with small samples) Quasi- experimental w/small sample Aggregated massage clinic records Treatment length, frequency (sessions/week, # of weeks) Complementary approaches (medicalon, exercise) VAS, aclve trunk flexion CorrelaLon, DescripLves stralfied by group Example #4: ComparaLve Efficacy Overall Ques3on OperaLonalize Literature review results Research hypothesis ProspecBve design idea Data source Variables Analysis approach What techniques are most effec3ve for back pain? Chronic (>12 weeks) Idiopathic Adults 18+ Measurement (pain, ROM) Massage treatment >30 minutes duralon Inconclusive (double- blinding not possible, few trials with small samples) Gliding and kneading of hip extensors increases ROM & decreases pain in palents with insufficient trunk flexion Quasi- experimental, mulb- armed study w/medium sample Aggregated massage clinic records Treatment length, frequency (sessions/week, # of weeks) Complementary approaches (medicalon, exercise) VAS, aclve trunk flexion ANOVA, descriplves, stralfied groups 7
