We will investigate whether a new digital solution called BackTraceDigital can provide patients with low back pain a better experience of coherence and involvement in their cross-sectoral care pathway. The objective is to enable coherence in patient care across sectors through data sharing between professionals and through patient and the professional. For patients with low back pain, a care pathway can be lengthy, fragmented and confusing. This is partly because professionals’ IT systems do not support data sharing among hospitals, municipalities, general practitioners, physiotherapists, chiropractors and the employment sector. Through BackTraceDigital, the patient receives an overview of their treatment pathway, appointments and relevant knowledge and the professional has the opportunity to see the information other professionals have recorded about the patient. We anticipate this will enable a better flow of data and information leading to a coherent pathway.
