The 39-item ROwan Foot Pain Assessment Questionnaire (ROFPAQ) has affective, cognitive, and sensory dimensions to evaluate chronic foot pain. However, to date, the ROFPAQ has only been validated in English and Spanish versions. A simplified Chinese version of ROFPAQ is still not available, even though China has a large population of patients with foot pain.
This study's aim was to translate the ROFPAQ into a Chinese version and assess its reliability and validity in Chinese patients with chronic foot pain.
A cross-sectional, multicenter descriptive study.
This study took place at the Chinese PLA General Hospital, PLA Strategic Support Force Characteristic Medical Center and Wenzhou integrated traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang traditional Chinese Medicine University.
The ROFPAQ-C (Chinese) was developed by a forward/backward translation protocol and cross-cultural adaptation from the United Kingdom to China, and from English to Chinese Putonghua. A total of 194 patients from 3 centers with chronic foot pain were recruited for test-retest measures from July 2020 though September 2021.
Adequate internal consistencies (Cronbach's Alpha) in 3 domains ranged from 0.875 to 0.799 for the cognitive, from 0.795 to 0.629 for the affective, and from 0.801 to 0.811 for the sensory, as well as for the total score from 0.880 to 0.815. Adequate test-retest reliability by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were shown in the cognitive 0.712 (95% CI 0.636 to 0.775), the affective 0.929 (95% CI 0.906 to 0.946), the sensory 0.753 (95% CI 0.685 to 0.808), and the total score 0.932 (95% CI 0.910 to 0.948). Adequate item-total correlations were shown for the cognitive from 0.848 to 0.825, the affective from 0.918 to 0.908, and the sensory from 0.943 to 0.855.
The original ROFPAQ with 39 items was developed from a podiatry department of the health care national service of the United Kingdom.
The ROFPAQ-C can be used as a valid and reliable tool for chronic foot pain in the Chinese population.
ROwan 足部疼痛评估问卷（ROFPAQ）共有 39 个项目，具有情感、认知和感觉维度，用于评估慢性足部疼痛。然而，迄今为止，ROFPAQ 仅在英文版和西班牙语版中得到验证。尽管中国有大量足部疼痛患者，但仍没有简体中文版的 ROFPAQ。
本研究旨在将 ROFPAQ 翻译成中文版本，并评估其在中国慢性足部疼痛患者中的信度和效度。
这是一项横断面、多中心描述性研究。
本研究在中国人民解放军总医院、中国人民解放军战略支援部队特色医学中心和浙江中医药大学附属温州中西医结合医院进行。
ROFPAQ-C（中文版）通过从英国到中国、从英语到中文普通话的正向/反向翻译协议和跨文化适应性进行开发。2020 年 7 月至 2021 年 9 月，共有来自 3 个中心的 194 名慢性足部疼痛患者参加了测试-重测测量。
3 个领域的内部一致性（Cronbach's Alpha）充足，认知领域为 0.875 至 0.799，情感领域为 0.795 至 0.629，感觉领域为 0.801 至 0.811，总分从 0.880 到 0.815。通过组内相关系数（ICC）显示出足够的测试-重测可靠性，认知为 0.712（95%CI 0.636 至 0.775），情感为 0.929（95%CI 0.906 至 0.946），感觉为 0.753（95%CI 0.685 至 0.808），总分为 0.932（95%CI 0.910 至 0.948）。认知领域的项目-总分相关性充足，为 0.848 至 0.825，情感领域为 0.918 至 0.908，感觉领域为 0.943 至 0.855。
原始的 ROFPAQ 有 39 个项目，是从英国国家医疗保健系统的足病科开发而来的。
ROFPAQ-C 可作为中国人群慢性足部疼痛的有效、可靠工具。
