Abstract

This study presents the validation of two recently described pain scales, the Equine Utrecht University Scale for Composite Pain Assessment (EQUUS-COMPASS) and the Equine Utrecht University Scale for Facial Assessment of Pain (EQUUS-FAP), in horses with acute colic. A follow-up cohort study of 46 adult horses (n = 23 with acute colic; n = 23 healthy control horses) was performed for validation and refinement of the constructed scales. Both pain scales showed statistically significant differences between horses with colic and healthy control horses, and between horses with colic that could be treated conservatively and those that required surgical treatment or were euthanased. Sensitivity and specificity were good for both EQUUS-COMPASS (87% and 71%, respectively) and EQUUS-FAP (77% and 100%, respectively) and were not substantially influenced by applying weighting factors to the individual parameters.

摘要

本研究对两种最近描述的疼痛量表进行了验证，即用于马匹复合疼痛评估的乌得勒支大学马量表（EQUUS - COMPASS）和用于马匹面部疼痛评估的乌得勒支大学马量表（EQUUS - FAP），研究对象为患有急性腹痛的马匹。对46匹成年马（n = 23匹患有急性腹痛；n = 23匹健康对照马）进行了一项随访队列研究，以验证和完善所构建的量表。两种疼痛量表在患腹痛的马匹与健康对照马之间，以及在可以保守治疗的患腹痛马匹与需要手术治疗或实施安乐死的马匹之间均显示出统计学上的显著差异。EQUUS - COMPASS（分别为87%和71%）和EQUUS - FAP（分别为77%和100%）的敏感性和特异性均良好，并且对各个参数应用加权因子并未对其产生实质性影响。
