The present research has resulted in the SALSA scale, a short questionnaire which can be administered within 10 min and which provides a standardized measure of activity limitation in clients with a peripheral neuropathy. It can be used to make comparisons between (groups of) individuals in different countries and in the same person (or group) over time. General health workers can use SALSA to screen clients and refer those with high scores to specialised services. In addition, the scale will assist service providers in designing appropriate interventions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
