Given the high prevalence and possible psychosocial consequences of functional abdominal pain in children and adolescents, appropriate instruments for early diagnostics are required to work effectively against long-term chronic courses of this disorder. This report describes several self-report scales and reviews their applicability. In addition, questionnaires and interviews which assess pain intensity and associated factors as well as specific instruments for assessing functional abdominal pain in children and adolescents are introduced. It can be declared that none of the examined instruments grasps all relevant factors of pain. Especially in German there are only few appropriate diagnostic instruments for functional abdominal pain in children.
鉴于儿童和青少年功能性腹痛的高患病率及其可能产生的心理社会后果,需要有合适的早期诊断工具来有效应对这种疾病的长期慢性病程。本报告描述了几种自我报告量表并评估了它们的适用性。此外,还介绍了评估疼痛强度及相关因素的问卷和访谈,以及用于评估儿童和青少年功能性腹痛的特定工具。可以宣称,所研究的工具均未涵盖疼痛的所有相关因素。尤其是在德语区,针对儿童功能性腹痛的合适诊断工具很少。
