About this study
The VERABAND™ is a newly-developed, disposable, wearable activity monitor. The researchers will assess clinician satisfaction with the usability and likelihood of clinical adoption of the newly-developed, disposable, wearable activity monitor, across multiple clinical sites in the chronic low back pain (cLBP) population.
