Disability questionnaires are increasingly used for clinical assessment, outcome measurement of treatment and research methodology of low back pain. Their use in different countries and cultural groups must follow certain guidelines for translation and cross-cultural adaptation. The translation of such an instrument must be tested for its reliability and validity to be applied and to allow comparability of data. The Oswestry Disability Index and the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire are two disability questionnaires most commonly used as outcome measures in patients with low back pain. The two questionnaires were translated for use with the Greek population, were back translated and tested, and became available in a final version. The Greek versions of the Oswestry Disability Index and the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire were tested in 697 patients with low back pain. Internal consistency reliability for the Greek translation of the Oswestry Disability Index and the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire reached a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.833 and 0.885 respectively. Face validity and content validity were ensured. Concurrent validity was assessed using a six-point pain scale as a criterion. The correlation of both scales was significant. The Greek translation of these disability questionnaires provided reliable and valid instruments for the evaluation of Greek-speaking patients with low back pain.
残疾问卷越来越多地用于临床评估、治疗效果测量以及腰痛的研究方法。在不同国家和文化群体中使用这些问卷时，必须遵循特定的翻译和跨文化适应指南。此类工具的翻译必须经过可靠性和有效性测试，以便应用并实现数据的可比性。奥斯威斯残疾指数和罗兰 - 莫里斯残疾问卷是腰痛患者中最常用作评估指标的两份残疾问卷。这两份问卷已被翻译成希腊语版本，经过回译和测试后形成了最终版本。对697名腰痛患者进行了奥斯威斯残疾指数和罗兰 - 莫里斯残疾问卷希腊语版本的测试。奥斯威斯残疾指数和罗兰 - 莫里斯残疾问卷希腊语翻译版的内部一致性信度分别达到了0.833和0.885的克朗巴哈系数。确保了表面效度和内容效度。使用六点疼痛量表作为标准评估同时效度。两个量表的相关性显著。这些残疾问卷的希腊语翻译版为评估说希腊语的腰痛患者提供了可靠且有效的工具。
