Reciprocal relationships between chronic musculoskeletal pain and various sleep disturbances are well established. The Pain and Sleep Questionnaire three-item index (PSQ-3) is a concise, valid, and reliable patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) that directly evaluates how sleep is affected by chronic low back pain (CLBP). Translation and cross-cultural validation of The Pain and Sleep Questionnaire three-item index Finnish version (PSQ-3-FI) were conducted according to established guidelines. The validation sample was 229 subjects, including 42 pain-free controls and 187 subjects with chronic musculoskeletal pain. Our aims were to evaluate internal consistency, test-retest reliability, measurement error, structural validity, convergent validity, and discriminative validity and, furthermore, to study the relationships between dizziness, postural control on a force plate, and objective sleep quality metrics and total PSQ-3-FI score. The PSQ-3-FI demonstrated good internal consistency, excellent test-retest reliability, and small measurement error. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed acceptable fit indices to a one-factor model. Convergent validity indicated fair to good correlation with pain history and well-established pain-related PROMs. The PSQ-3-FI total score successfully distinguished between the groups with no pain, single-site pain, and multisite pain. A higher prevalence of dizziness, more impaired postural control, and a general trend towards poorer sleep quality were observed among subjects with higher PSQ-3-FI scores. Postural control instability was more evident in eyes-open tests. The Finnish PSQ-3 translation was successfully cross-culturally adapted and validated. The PSQ-3-FI appears to be a valid and reliable PROM for the Finnish-speaking CLBP population. More widespread implementation of PSQ-3 would lead to better understanding of the direct effects of pain on sleep.
慢性肌肉骨骼疼痛与各种睡眠障碍之间的相互关系已得到充分证实。疼痛与睡眠问卷三项指标(PSQ - 3)是一种简洁、有效且可靠的患者报告结局测量工具(PROM),可直接评估慢性腰痛(CLBP)对睡眠的影响。根据既定指南对疼痛与睡眠问卷三项指标芬兰语版(PSQ - 3 - FI)进行了翻译和跨文化验证。验证样本包括229名受试者,其中42名无疼痛对照者和187名患有慢性肌肉骨骼疼痛的受试者。我们的目的是评估内部一致性、重测信度、测量误差、结构效度、收敛效度和区分效度,此外,研究头晕、测力板上的姿势控制以及客观睡眠质量指标与PSQ - 3 - FI总分之间的关系。PSQ - 3 - FI显示出良好的内部一致性、出色的重测信度和较小的测量误差。验证性因素分析证实单因素模型的拟合指数可接受。收敛效度表明与疼痛病史以及成熟的疼痛相关PROM之间存在中等至良好的相关性。PSQ - 3 - FI总分成功区分了无疼痛组、单部位疼痛组和多部位疼痛组。在PSQ - 3 - FI得分较高的受试者中,头晕患病率更高、姿势控制受损更严重,且睡眠质量普遍较差。睁眼测试中姿势控制不稳定更为明显。芬兰语版PSQ - 3的翻译成功进行了跨文化改编和验证。PSQ - 3 - FI似乎是适用于讲芬兰语的CLBP人群的有效且可靠的PROM。更广泛地应用PSQ - 3将有助于更好地理解疼痛对睡眠的直接影响。
