“…Flere har rapportert om økende behandlingsrater (5)(6)(7)(8), men få har studert det samlede forbruket av ryggoperasjoner (9). I Norge økte behandlingsraten med 54 % fra 78 til 120 operasjoner per 100 000 innbyggere per år fra 1999 til 2013 (10). Formålet med denne studien var å undersøke om behandlingstilbudet innen ryggkirurgi i Helse Nord er i henhold til den vedtatte funksjonsfordelingen, og om det er geografisk variasjon i tilbudet.…”
