Recent advancements in remote sensor\u2010based technologies have introduced innovative methods for continuous monitoring and personalised rehabilitation of individuals with LBP.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>This Narrative review aims to explore and synthesize current evidence on the use of remote sensor\u2010based monitoring in the management of low back pain, with a focus on outcomes related to quality of life, functional recovery, and patient\u2010centred care.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A systematic search was performed across four major databases\u2014PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar\u2014for studies published between 2010 and 2025.

Inclusion criteria comprised randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, systematic reviews, scoping and literature reviews that examined sensor\u2010driven interventions in outpatient or home\u2010based LBP rehabilitation settings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The review identified evidence supporting the use of wearable sensors in enhancing patient engagement, tracking physical activity, and enabling real\u2010time feedback during exercises. Improvements were noted in pain management, functional mobility, and patient\u2010reported quality of life. Moreover, remote monitoring promoted adherence and early detection of relapses. Nonetheless, heterogeneity in sensor types, data interpretation, and outcome reporting was observed across studies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Remote sensor\u2010based monitoring holds significant potential to complement conventional rehabilitation strategies for low back pain.
