While LBP affects up to 85% of all people at some point in life1,2 its underlying cause is often misunderstood. As a result, many patients seeking LBP relief do not receive the therapy they need. At Zyga, we are committed to supporting health care providers with the products, education, support and information they need to provide the best possible care for their patients.
It has been reported that up to 20% of all chronic LBP derives from the Sacroiliac joint.3,4 However, because SI joint issues often mimic discogenic or radicular LBP, patients with SI joint dysfunction may not be correctly diagnosed, leading to unnecessary treatment such as lumbar spine surgery. In fact, the sacroiliac joint is the most likely source of low back pain after lumbar fusion.5
For your patients with unresolved LBP who have unsuccessfully pursued conservative care therapies, consider SI joint involvement in all LBP diagnostic work-ups as part of a comprehensive, differential diagnosis.
