Knowledge of features of inflammatory back pain in primary care in the West Midlands: a cross-sectional survey in the United Kingdom
2018
Key messages

A simple screening tool for SpA, applicable in primary care urgently needs to be developed. It is reasonable for patients with symptoms suggestive of inflammatory back pain to be referred to secondary care without further investigations.
