Egy deréktáji fájdalommal kapcsolatos betegségspecifikus tudást felmérő külföldi kérdőív hazai, magyar nyelvű validálása

Abstract

Introduction: Many disease-specific questionnaires, which analyze patients’ functional status, quality of life or the progression of the disease, have been validated in Hungarian. The low back pain (LBP) patients’ knowledge about their problem has not been measured by an officially validated Hungarian tool. Aim: The aim of our study was to translate and validate the Low Back Pain Knowledge Questionnaire (LKQ) and to assess its validity and reliability. Method: We used the translation-back translation method as the first step. Then we used a synthesis of the back translations reviewed by independent translators. We enrolled 218 people in our study: 101 of them were chronic LBP patients and 73 acute LBP patients. For the validation process, we used the Roland–Morris Disability Index to compare our questionnaire. We calculated Cronbach’s alpha values and correlation coefficients. Results: The Hungarian version of LKQ correlated well with the Roland–Morris Index and it proved to be a valid questionnaire (correlation coefficient: –0.393; Cronbach’s alpha value 0.894). Conclusion: We found the Hungarian version of LKQ a valid and reliable tool to measure patients’ knowledge about LBP. We recommend future studies should apply bigger and more homogenous populations to assess LBP disease-specific knowledge in this country. Orv Hetil. 2019; 160(42): 1663–1672.

Health questionnaire on back care knowledge and spine disease prevention for 6–10 years old children: development and psychometric evaluation

“…Finally, we found three validated questionnaires [1,3,24] in the field of back care knowledge. For wider mapping, we also reviewed several sources related to disease-specific knowledge [17], postural habits [28], low back pain [29], back pain [30,31], among adults and children, and studies in the field of back school, back/posture education [9,10,25,27,32]. We aimed to evaluate the knowledge that back care programs provide: anatomy, spine use habits, biomechanics, ergonomics and spine-friendly lifestyles.…”

“…A frequently used method of prevention is the back school program (BSP) [8], applied in numerous countries [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Nowadays BSP education occurs in a rehabilitation setting and is directed at adults suffering the consequences of years of bad habits, including ineffective lifting patterns [17]. Sheldon recommends using BPS principles in early childhood as a proactive method of prevention of back pain, it should begin proactively in the elementary schools where it could reach the greatest number of people [18].…”

“…If we get to know the background of something, and we are aware of it, it is easier to develop new, good habits instead of bad ones. In the improvement of posture habits, the first is the habits [19], besides, the development of back care knowledge is important, which can also affect the evolution of good habits and aid in the prevention of spine problems [17,20]. Teaching proper movement patterns and posture habits to elementary school children is very important to be able to integrate them into their daily behavior.…”

Application of Disease-Specific Knowledge in the Rehabilitation Process – Based on the Effects of Back School Program among Chinese Adults

“…Patient knowledge is an essential component of primary prevention [134]. Clinical practitioners in many countries have focused on the application and impact of LBP knowledge within the framework of their culture and have developed or validated scales to measure LBP knowledge [119]- [121], [135]. However, there is a lack of validation for the Chinese LKQ.…”

“…Knowledge about the prevention and rehabilitation of spinal disorders can be assessed with the LKQ originally developed by Maciel et al in 2009 [119]. It was translated and validated into the Arabic (2017) and Hungarian (2019) languages [120], [121].…”
