| Core Tip |
Sacrum magnetic resonance studies ordered for low back pain were suspected to lack clinical utility at our institution. A literature review demonstrated a lack of evidence based practice in ordering of this study for low back/tail bone pain. A quality project was then pursued to first assess the clinical usefulness of the study. Over four years these studies had no major impacts on management. An educational component of the quality project was then pursued with a rapid decrease in the number of studies ordered by referring providers. |
