192 Exercise Intensity and Chronic LBP
Brought to you by CSMi So we're not the best with chronic nonspecific low back pain. We also tend to underload our patients in general. Maybe if we increased the intensity of our exercises, we would be more effective with chronic nonspecific low back pain. Well, at least we can test it!

191 Screening for Depression
Brought to you by CSMi Clinical depression is a very real part of many of our patients' lives. As a matter of fact, our current understanding of many commonly treated PT diagnoses suggests that clinical depression may be a huge driver of symptoms. How do we identify it in our patients? Assuming we can do that, what do we do about it once we identify it? Using the 9-Item Patient Health Questionnaire to Screen for and Monitor Depression. Zimmerman M. JAMA Insights. Published online October 18, 2019. doi:https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2019.15883.
