Comment on the paper “Cognitive Functional Therapy in patients with Non Specific Chronic Low Back Pain”, by Vibe Fersum et al

Abstract

We would like to thank the authors for publishing this article (Vibe Fersum et al., 2019). The approach called CFT is very promising and has caught the attention and interest of a huge number of clinicians in the management of non‐specific disabling chronic low back pain. We wholeheartedly agree that it is necessary to publish the results of the long term follow up even in circumstances where there may be a high risk of bias. Notably, the 1‐year follow‐up study of Vibe Fersum et al. (2013) already presented a number of methodological shortcomings, such as lack of clear information regarding blinding of assessors.
