According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention deals with managing lower back pain (LBP) effects on functional ability and life satisfaction. Lower back pain affects numerous people globally by limiting their everyday function as well as their professional performance together with their emotional state. The current evaluative instruments concentrate on pain intensity with basic tests of physical abilities but ignore LBP's wider-ranging effects on life satisfaction of individual patients. The invention brings together an extensive diagnostic solution and assessment technology for evaluating multiple LBP-related effects on patients. Standardized testing tools within the system evaluate pain severity together with functional motion capacity alongside psychological functioning and social interaction activities which creates a complete clinical patient profile. Treatment plans will be created by healthcare providers by using these assessments to manage LBP both physically and emotionally while tracking patient progress through ongoing monitoring. This invention works to enhance medical outcomes because it increases diagnosis accuracy and delivers optimized management strategies for patients who deal with chronic and acute lower back pain which leads to better quality of life. The invention provides clinical and healthcare settings with an innovative management method for LBP by enabling better patient outcomes and health improvements through comprehensive understanding of impact."
