Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Lumbar Radicular Claudication associated with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis is a surprisingly prevalent disorder in the middle and older age populations. Despite this, it’s a little-known condition and its only in recent times that it is being investigated with high quality research.

The purpose of this lecture is to explore Lumbar Radicular Claudication as a part of a broader syndrome. We will explore mechanisms, examination, management and treatment. This lecture is highly practical and condition specific but it is hoped that it can integrated into a broader biopsychosocial approach.

The learning outcomes are:

To appreciate, compare and contrast various Radicular Syndromes, presentations and masquerading medical disorders.
To develop up-to-date knowledge of risk factors and prognostic factors
To develop deeper understanding of nerve root homeostasis and pathophysiology
To consolidate approaches to physical examination
To confidently educate patients, devise exercise programmes and support rehabilitation.
To clinically reason onward referral

Episodes

Management

Learn a practical, patient-centered approach to managing lumbar spinal stenosis with clear communication, shared decision-making, and realistic goals focused on function and quality of life. Discover why exercise, especially cycling and walking-based strategies, can improve mobility while surgery remains an elective option to weigh carefully.

Presentations

Understand how lumbar spinal stenosis presents, why walking and standing trigger leg symptoms, and how to distinguish it from sciatica or vascular claudication. You’ll gain practical clinical insight into key signs, mechanisms, assessment, and management strategies that matter in real-world care.

Mechanisms

Discover how lumbar spinal stenosis develops by linking spine anatomy to the real mechanisms behind pain, numbness, and weakness. Learn why scans don’t always match symptoms, and how nerve compression, reduced blood flow, and tissue changes can disrupt function over time.

Examination

Learn how to assess suspected lumbar spinal stenosis with a focused neurological screen, movement testing, and key provocation maneuvers. You’ll also see how to spot red flags, distinguish spinal from vascular claudication, and decide when urgent referral is needed.
