Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a major public health problem. Multidisciplinary functional rehabilitation program (FRP), which give patients the skills to better manage pain and return to physical activity, are effective in the short term. In the medium and long term, due to lack of motivation, two thirds of patients stop their physical activity again, causing them to fall back into the vicious circle of pain. Investigators hypothesise that a remote assessment and motivational support program (MSP) based on an application, piloted by a care coordinator, could allow the continued improvement of symptoms and activities observed after the FRP programs, and thus limit the consequences of CLBP for the patient and society. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the motivational support program EMOTIV, on disability and pain at one year, in chronic low back pain patients who have benefited from a FRP program.
Multidisciplinary functional rehabilitation program (FRP) have shown their efficacy in disabilitie patient suffering from Chronic low back pain (CLBP). Unfortunately, at medium and long term two thirds of patients stop their physical activity due to lack of motivation. These patients then fall back into their painful vicious circle. Investigators hypothesis that motivational support program (MSP) based on an application, piloted by a care coordinator could increase the motivation to continue physical activity and thus limit the consequences of CLBP for the patient and society. The main objective is to evaluate the impact of a MSP (EMOTIV) on pain and functional abilities assessed according to the COMI scale (Core Outcome Measure Index), 12 months after a FRP in patients with LPBC. This program is compared to usual care as currently done. The secondary criteria concern: physical, neuropsychological and medico-economical criteria. This is a multicentre, cluster randomized trial. All adult patient suffering from low back pain, having finished a FRP and possessing a smartphone, will be included. Investigators plan to include 150 patients in 6 centres. The duration of the inclusion period is 12 months; The duration of participation of each subject is 24 months. Inclusion will be on the last day of the FRP program. The Follow-up in consultation is scheduled at 3, 12 and 24 months with evaluation of usual criteria (physical, self-questionnaires, and advice on the practice of physical activities depending on what is achieved). In Pitie salpetriere center only, patients will have in addition: lumbar MRI at 3 and 12 months; central pain awareness assessment. The activity of patients in the MSP group will be recorded continuously par EMOTIV App; pain, mental health and days off every week and self-questionnaires at 1, 2 and 6 months. The primary analysis of all endpoints will be performed in the intent-to-treat population, i.e. all patients randomized to the study. The COMI score will be compared between the 2 randomized groups by a linear mixed model.

| Motivational Support Program Emotiv | Behavioral | A motivational support program including a motivational and self-assessment remote application in the form of a Smartphone application for chronic low back pain patients after multidisciplinary functional rehabilitation. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Difference in disability and pain between the experimental (SHP) and control (usual care) groups, measured with the Core Outcome Measure Index (COMI) scale at 12 months. | The Core Outcome Measure Index (COMI) was developed from requirements of international back pain experts. According to European experts, the COMI should currently be recommended in assessment of chronic low back pain. This questionnaire assesses pain and disability in low back pain. It includes 9 items and its score is between 0 and 10. Higher scores is the worse outcome. | 12 months after completion of the multidisciplinary functional rehabilitation program |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Evolution of pain | Pain will be measured by a Visual Analogic Scale (VAS) with a question about lumbar pain over the last 7 days. Minimum and maximum values are 0 and 100. | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of flexibility |

Flexibility will be evaluated by measuring the hand-to-ground distance
| At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of muscular endurance | Muscular endurance will be assessed by measuring Shirado (abdominal endurance). Its score is between 0 and no limit. 0 is the worse outcome. | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of muscular endurance | Muscular endurance will be assessed by measuring Sorensen (spinal extensor endurance). Its score is between 0 and no limit. 0 is the worse outcome. | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of disability and pain | Disability and pain will be assessed by the Core Outcome Measure Index (COMI) questionnaire. Its score is between 0 and 10. Higher scores is the worse outcome. | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of endurance and sports performance (VO2 max) | Endurance and sports performance will be assessed on the treadmill | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of the intensity of physical activity | Intensity of physical activity will be assessed by the IPAQ (International Physical Activity Questionnaire). Scoring a high level of physical activity on the IPAQ means the physical activity levels equate to approximately one hour of activity per day or more at least a moderate intensity activity level. | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
| Evolution of muscular trophicity in the 2 groups | Muscular trophicity will be done by the measurement of the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the extensor muscles at the level of the upper and lower plateaus of L4 at the lumbar spine | At 3 months and 12 months |
| Evolution of the level of anxiety and depression | Level of anxiety and depression will be assessed by the HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression) scale. 14 items rated from 0 to 3. Seven questions relate to anxiety (total A) and seven others to the depressive dimension (total D), thus allowing two scores (maximum and worse of each score equal 21) | At 3 months, 12 months and 24 months |
