Sažetak
The frequency of symptoms that manifest in low back pain (LBP), whatever if its immediate cause, makes pain back an important medical, and also an socio-economical theme. Rehabilitation is an important factor in the medical and curing process of such patients. Evaluation of the effect of medical rehabilitation is being monitored with a number of specific questionnaires, in which one of the most used is the Oswestry LBP Questionnaire, Roland-Morris Questionnaire and non-specific WHOQOL. All the already mentioned mechanisms for LBP have its disadvantages but they also fit in well in the bio-psycho-social model of treatment, for which the LBP is a good example. LBP is not only a problem for itself, but also the cause of stress, disability and reduced functional ability of each patient.
