MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE KOVACS BACK UNITS
The main characteristics of the Kovacs Back
Units are:
-
They are based on scientific evidence.
They apply all of the treatments whose efficacy has been
scientifically proven and use no treatment which has not
been evaluated or has been proven ineffective. This guarantees
the effectiveness and safety of the Units and spares the
patient side effects, risks, delays and unnecessary costs.
-
They are complete: they are staffed
by professionals in all medical specializations related
to back disorders, such as Primary Care, Rheumatology,
Rehabilitation, Traumatology, Neurosurgery, Sports Medicine,
Internal Medicine, etc. The medical team at each Unit
studies each case in depth and recommends to the patient
only those treatments the most up-to-date studies advise
for him or her.
-
They are coordinated: All of the
Units and all of the doctors in each Unit work from the
same criteria, based on the available scientific studies
and coordinated by the Kovacs Foundation.
-
They are kept up-to-date: The
Scientific Department of the Kovacs Foundation reviews
the studies on back disorders published throughout the
world and analyzes their scientific quality. The result
of this research is used to assure that the treatments
applied in its Back Units and the criteria with which
each treatment is prescribed to each patient are entirely
up-to-date and reflect the latest in scientific and therapeutic
practice.
-
They are protected: The Kovacs
Foundation coordinates the work of its Back Units, guarantees
the constant scientific review of their criteria, backs
up their efforts, and supervises their results.
