目标。手部慢性类风湿病评估和量化评分 (SACRAH) 是一份自填问卷，用于评估手部骨关节炎 (HOA) 和类风湿性关节炎 (RA) 患者的功能状态、僵硬和疼痛。它由三个领域的 23 个问题组成，需要在 100 毫米视觉模拟量表 (VAS) 上回答。我们的目标是通过消除多余的问题来缩短原始的 SACRAH，以便于患者和医生更容易使用。方法。经过采用高变量间相关性的任意程序后，冗余问题最终被消除。为了验证缩短版本，在奥地利四个风湿病中心招募了 60 名 HOA 患者，完成了原始 SACRAH 以及缩短版本。在 Humanis Klinikum Stockerau 第二内科接受治疗的 55 名手部患有 RA 的患者也完成了这两项调查问卷。结果。总共消除了 11 个问题（9 个问题来自功能领域，2 个问题来自疼痛领域），导致修改后的分数由 12 个问题组成。比较 SACRAH 和 M-SACRAH 的结果以及个体患者的域评分，HOA 患者的相关系数 r=0.978（P
Objectives. The Score for the Assessment and Quantification of Chronic Rheumatoid Affections of the Hands (SACRAH) is a self-administered questionnaire assessing functional status, stiffness and pain in patients suffering from hand osteoarthritis (HOA) as well as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) of the hand. It consists of 23 questions in three domains, to be answered on 100 mm visual analogue scales (VAS). Our goal was to shorten the original SACRAH by elimination of redundant questions in order to make it easier to use for patients and physicians.Methods. Following an arbitrary procedure employing high intervariable correlations, redundant questions were eventually eliminated. To validate the shortened version, 60 patients with HOA, recruited at four rheumatological centres in Austria, completed the original SACRAH as well as the shortened version. Fifty-five patients suffering from RA of the hands treated at the Second Department of Medicine, Humanis Klinikum Stockerau, also completed both questionnaires.Results. A total of 11 questions (nine from the function domain and two from the pain domain) were eliminated, leading to the modified score consisting of 12 questions. Comparing the results of SACRAH and M-SACRAH, as well as the domain scores in individual patients, correlation coefficients were r=0.978 for HOA patients (P
