Brief summary (from the registry)
The main objective of this work is to validate in French the questionnaire EARS, adapted to chronic low back pain. Physical exercise is often recognized as necessary for primary and secondary prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. This is particularly true of chronic low back pain. It is therefore of paramount importance that compliance with such treatment be assessed to allow for readjustments, as well as drug treatment. No gold standard6-7 measured patient adherence to exercise programs until the creation of the EARS in 2016 by E.Godfrey and his team (Exercise Adherence Rating Scale, literally "joining physical exercise programs") EARS is a reliable and validated psychometric assessment questionnaire that assesses adherence to prescribed physical exercise in chronic low back pain.
