Develop a technology enabled care pathway that will empower community health workers in Uganda to deliver first line primary care for low back pain.

Our solution comprises the development of a digital clinical decision support system that enables community health workers to safely identify low back pain cases that are amenable to self-management, assist the health worker in dispatching evidence-based self-management advice and identify those cases that should be referred onwards for specialist assessment and interventions.
