The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Short Form Brief Pain Inventory (SF-BPI) for community-dwelling Brazilian older adults with chronic neuropathic, nociceptive and nociplastic pain.
Cross-sectional psychometric testing was conducted in a convenience sample, n=114 (66.5 ± 4.9 years).
The 2-factor structure of the SF-BPI was ratified by confirmatory factor analysis. Convergent validity was found between the SF-BPI and the Present Pain Intensity (PPI). There was good overall internal consistency (Cronbach's α: 0.87). Test-retest reliability was excellent for pain intensity and interference scores of the SF-BPI (ICC: 0.90 and 0.96, respectively), as well as inter-rater reliability for both dimensions (ICC: 0.77).
The findings support the validity and reliability of the SF-BPI for community-dwelling older adults with chronic pain and may contribute to health professionals having a brief multidimensional assessment for more effective therapeutic approaches in this population.
本研究旨在评估简式简明疼痛问卷(SF-BPI)对患有慢性神经性、伤害性和神经可塑性疼痛的巴西社区老年人的有效性和可靠性。
对一个便利样本(n = 114,年龄66.5 ± 4.9岁)进行横断面心理测量测试。
验证性因素分析批准了SF-BPI的双因素结构。在SF-BPI与当前疼痛强度(PPI)之间发现了收敛效度。总体内部一致性良好(克朗巴哈α系数:0.87)。SF-BPI的疼痛强度和干扰评分的重测信度极佳(组内相关系数分别为:0.90和0.96),两个维度的评分者间信度也很好(组内相关系数:0.77)。
研究结果支持SF-BPI对患有慢性疼痛的社区老年人的有效性和可靠性,并可能有助于卫生专业人员进行简短的多维度评估,以便对该人群采取更有效的治疗方法。
