Participants in the intervention group performed an home exercise program via mobile health (PainReApp), while the control group received the same booklet-based home exercise program. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, pain-related, health-related quality of life, and biopsychosocial outcomes were measured at baseline, 3 (T1), and 6 mos (T2).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Within-group improvements (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.05) were statistically significant for body mass index and physical functioning tests (T1, T2) in the intervention group, and for physical functioning tests (T1, T2), physical component of health-related quality of life and sleep quality (T1) in the control group. A significant between-group difference was observed for 30-sec arm curl (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.038) at T1, favoring the intervention group. The evolution of the effect did not differ significantly for any of the outcomes.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n Self-managed home exercise program could slightly improve anthropometric, physical functioning, health-related quality of life, and sleep quality in both groups of people with chronic low back pain.
