Abstract

Chronic pain is the most common cause of impaired work ability and thus represents a significant social and economic burden. STarT Back Screening Tool (SBT) is the most often used screening tool for rapid identification and classification of patients for their risk of development of chronic low back pain, which is valid and reliable in the original English version and translation into other languages. The aim of the present study was to translate the SBT into Slovenian and to evaluate its content validity and reliability. We translated the SBT from English into Slovenian and back according to the standard protocol. We tested its metric properties on a group of patients with low back pain aged 18 to 65 years. The reliability of the reassessment was calculated using the ICC and specific agreement, while the content validity of the questionnaire was determined using the ceiling and floor effect. Of the 42 patients who participated in the study, 42.9% were at low risk, 33.3% were at moderate risk, and 23.8% were at high risk of developing chronic pain, according to the SBT. The ICC for the entire sample was 0.96 (95% CI 0.92-0.98). The Slovenian translation of the SBT showed excellent specific agreement between the initial and repeat assessments: 91.4% for the low-risk group, 85.7% for the moderate-risk group, and 95.2% for the high-risk group. In addition, it showed good content validity, as no ceiling or floor effects were detected. The Slovenian translation of the questionnaire is suitable for clinical use.

斯洛文尼亚版STarT背部筛查工具用于腰痛患者慢性风险评估的可重复性和内容有效性。
慢性疼痛是工作能力受损的最常见原因,因此是一种重大的社会和经济负担。STarT背部筛查工具(SBT)是最常用的筛查工具,用于快速识别和分类患者患慢性腰痛的风险,其英文原版和翻译成其他语言都是有效和可靠的。本研究的目的是将SBT翻译成斯洛文尼亚语,并评估其内容的有效性和可靠性。我们根据标准协议将SBT从英语翻译成斯洛文尼亚语并返回。我们在一组18至65岁的腰痛患者身上测试了它的度量特性。使用ICC和具体协议计算重新评估的可靠性,而使用上限和下限效应确定问卷的内容有效性。根据SBT,在参与研究的42名患者中,42.9%的患者处于低风险,33.3%的患者处于中风险,23.8%的患者处于慢性疼痛的高风险。整个样本的ICC为0.96(95%CI 0.92-0.98)。SBT的斯洛文尼亚语翻译在初始和重复评估之间显示出极好的特异性一致性:低风险组为91.4%,中风险组为85.7%,高风险组为95.2%。此外,由于没有检测到天花板或地板效应,它显示出良好的内容有效性。调查表的斯洛文尼亚语译文适合临床使用。
