SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Provider Beliefs Regarding
the Deadlift and their Effect on Patient Management; OMB Control Number
0720-PBRD.
Needs and Uses: The United States Army implemented the Army Combat
Fitness Test (ACFT) as the fitness test of record in October 2020. The
ACFT contains six events, including the maximum deadlift (MDL), which
is a three-repetition maximum lift using a hex (or trap) style bar.
Currently, there is a paucity of literature regarding healthcare
provider beliefs and the deadlift exercise. Despite limited evidence of
positive association for lumbopelvic injuries and deadlift, there are
concerns about the deadlift being a part of the ACFT. Given the
mandatory nature of the MDL as part of the U.S. Army's annual fitness
requirement, it is imperative to understand the beliefs providers
possess as patients are likely to seek them out following an episode of
low back pain. Their beliefs may significantly influence treatment
behaviors which could positively or negatively affect patient outcomes
which may affect days on limited duty, deploy ability statistics, and/
or return to duty rates, all of which directly influence military
readiness.
The primary aim of the survey is to assess if provider beliefs
regarding the deadlift exercise differ among various healthcare
provider disciplines within the military healthcare system and assess
if these differences are consistent with validated treatment
orientations for lower back pain, and if differences in beliefs
influence treatment behaviors for a patient presenting with a deadlift
injury.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Annual Burden Hours: 125.
Number of Respondents: 500.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 500.
Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
Frequency: On occasion.
Dated: July 16, 2025.
