“…The scale has shown excellent psychometric characteristics in past research. 29 In the present sample, the Cronbach's alpha was 0.92 at the baseline assessment. Pain intensity was assessed with a 0 to 10 numerical rating scale of average pain over the past week.…”

Trials of cognitive therapy (CT), mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and behavior therapy (BT) suggest that all 3 treatments produce reductions in pain and improvements in physical function, mood, and sleep disturbance in people with chronic pain conditions. Fewer studies have compared the relative efficacies of these treatments. In this randomized controlled study, we compared CT, MBSR, BT, and treatment as usual (TAU) in a sample of people with chronic low back pain (N 5 521). Eight individual sessions were administered with weekly assessments of outcomes. Consistent with the prior work, we found that CT, MBSR, and BT produced similar pretreatment to posttreatment effects on all outcomes and revealed similar levels of maintenance of treatment gains at 6-month followup. All 3 active treatments produced greater improvements than TAU. Weekly assessments allowed us to assess rates of change; ie, how quickly a given treatment produced significant differences, compared with TAU, on a given outcome. The 3 treatments differed significantly from TAU on average by session 6, and this rate of treatment effect was consistent across all treatments. Results suggest the possibility that the specific techniques included in CT, MBSR, and BT may be less important for producing benefits than people participating in any techniques rooted in these evidence-based psychosocial treatments for chronic pain.

“…All pain severity and pain interference items are F I G U R E 2 Flow of participants through the different phases of the study measured on a 7-point Likert scale with higher scores indicating more severe pain or higher levels of pain interference. The WHYMPI has been used in diverse chronic pain conditions, and is reliable and valid (see review: Peipert et al, 2018). In addition, the WHYMPI is a recommended instrument for the assessment of individuals suffering from chronic pain based on an evidenced-based consensus review (Dworkin et al, 2005).…”

The aim of the research is generalization of information about the most common foreign and domestic scales and questionnaires used in acute and chronic back pain (BP). The analysis of Russian-language and foreign literature was carried out with a search depth of 5 years (2016–2021) in the following databases: e-Library, PubMed, Oxford Press, Clinical Keys, Springer, Elsevier, Google Scholar. For the diagnosis of acute and chronic BP and the assessment of the characteristics of its course in dynamics, both a standardized study may be use: collection of complaints, anamnesis, objective examination, assessment of neurological status, as well as valid scales and questionnaires. For the timely diagnosis and monitoring of the development of BP in patients, a wide range of scales and questionnaires were proposed, which were conventionally ranked into 4 groups: scales for assessing the quality of life of patients with BP; scales for assessing the characteristics of pain in BP; scales for assessing the outcomes of the disease in BP; scales for assessing disability in BP. The first part of the thematic review presents an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of scales for assessing the quality of life of patients with BP. These perspective scales for assessing the quality of life of patients with BP are popular in the world neurological practice. It is necessary to adapt to the use in domestic clinical practice the Stratford Functional Back Pain Scale, the Index of Disability Associated with Pain, The Patient Assessment for Low Back Pain–Impacts.
