目的:颈部残疾指数、诺斯威克公园疼痛问卷、哥本哈根颈部功能残疾量表和颈部疼痛和残疾量表是广泛用于评估颈部疼痛或残疾的量表。本研究的目的是确定最适合土耳其颈部疼痛患者的量表。方法:将所有量表翻译成土耳其语,对 102 名颈部疼痛患者进行测量,然后比较其结构有效性、可靠性、反应性、可接受性和有用性。结果:这些量表在高有效性、可靠性标准和对变化的敏感性方面相似,但在可接受性和有用性方面有所不同。 69.6%的患者由于颈部问题以外的原因而省略了颈部残疾指数和诺斯威克公园疼痛问卷中有关驾驶的项目。结论:所有量表都是可靠、有效和敏感的仪器,具有相似的心理测量特性。应选择最能充分反映患者情况的量表。
Objective: The Neck Disability Index, the Northwick Park Pain Questionnaire, the Copenhagen Neck Functional Disability Scale and the Neck Pain and Disability Scale are widely used scales for assessing neck pain or disability. The aim of this study was to determine the most suitable scale for Turkish patients with neck pain.Methods: All scales were translated into Turkish, administered to 102 patients with neck pain, then compared with regard to their construct validity, reliability, responsiveness, acceptability and usefulness.Results: The scales were similar in their high validity, reliability standards and sensitivity to change, but differed in their acceptability and usefulness. The item about driving in the Neck Disability Index and the Northwick Park Pain Questionnaire was omitted by 69.6% of patients for reasons other than a neck problem.Conclusion: All scales were reliable, valid and sensitive instruments, with similar psychometric properties. The scale that most adequately reflects the patient should be chosen.
