简要总结
The purpose of this study is to translate and test face validity,content validity, Feasibility, internal consistency reliability and Test retest reliability of adapted Arabic-language version of Cornell musculoskeletal discomfort questionnaires in patients with musculoskeletal
详细描述
1.Study design: This study is a prospective observational study; it follows the recommendations of to test (face, content and construct) validity, feasibility, and (internal consistency and test re-test) reliability
.Participants: To have a good sample size researchers preferred to have a multiplier of 10, so as the RC-QOL questionnaire contains 54 questions, so the number of participants was 54 x10 =540 Methods The Cornell Musculoskeletal Discomfort Questionnaire is a 54-item questionnaire containing a body map diagram and questions about the prevalence of musculoskeletal ache, pain or discomfort in 18 regions of the body during the previous week .The Cornell Musculoskeletal Discomfort Questionnaires (CMDQ) are a set of tools developed by Dr. Alan Hedge and his team at Cornell University. They are designed to assess musculoskeletal discomfort among office workers and other populations. .The CMDQ includes different versions for sedentary and standing workers, as well as specific questionnaires for hand discomfort Scoring Guidelines - Cornell Musculoskeletal and Hand Discomfort Questionnaires
These questionnaires are for research screening purposes and not for diagnostic purposes. Scores can be analyzed in 4 ways:
- by simply counting the number of symptoms per person
- by summing the rating values for each person
- by weighting the rating scores to more easily identify the most serious problems as follows: Never = 0 1-2 times/week = 1.5 3-4 times/week = 3.5 Every day = 5 Several times every day = 10
- by multiplying the above Frequency score (0,1.5 , 3.5, 5, 10) by the Discomfort score (1,2,3) by the Interference score (1,2,3) In the computational analyses missing values can be coded as 0. If the missing value is for the frequency score then use this as a zero in multiplying, i.e. all combinations of Frequency, Discomfort and Interference become 0. However, if the missing value is in the Discomfort or Frequency score then treat it as missing so that the multiplied score will be at least the value of the Frequency score.
The individual items should also be analyzed to determine where there may be a postural problem for the person.

cronell muscloskeletal discomfort questionnaire
时间窗: 15 minutes
questionnaire for assessment muscloskeletal discomfort in sedentary and standing workers in previous weeks How can I classify the severity of discomfort into mild, moderate, or more. The discomfort score is a severity of discomfort. Originally we had it as 'mild', 'moderate' and 'severe discomfort', but we found that people more easily understood the categories 'slightly', 'moderately' and 'very uncomfortable' . if you like you can replace the scale point titles with 'mild', 'moderate' and 'severe discomfort
