Patient-reported questionnaires in MS rehabilitation: responsiveness and minimal important difference of the multiple sclerosis questionnaire for physiotherapists (MSQPT)

Abstract: BackgroundThe Multiple Sclerosis Questionnaire for Physical Therapists (MSQPT) is a patient-rated outcome questionnaire for evaluating the rehabilitation of persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Responsiveness was evaluated, and minimal important difference (MID) estimates were calculated to provide thresholds for clinical change for four items, three sections and the total score of the MSQPT.MethodsThis multicentre study used a combined distribution- and anchor-based approach with multiple anchors and multipl… Show more

“…Data on sex and region of residence (German-, French-, and Italian-speaking regions of Switzerland) stem from the participants' contact information. The entry survey collects information on HRQoL, frequency of symptoms (never/once/recurrent/permanent), age, disease duration (years since MS diagnosis), MS form, use of disease-modifying treatment (DMT), health professionals visited in the previous year, confirmed MS diagnosis in parents, siblings or offspring, mobility (Ferchichi and van der Maas, 2015;van der Maas, 2017), lifestyle factors, and socioeconomic status. As Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) was rarely reported, a proxy measure was derived from available mobility data (Appendix) (Ferchichi and van der Maas, 2015;van der Maas, 2017).…”

“…Among the ve FAOS subscales, pain was the most responsive, possibly because pain is the most common problem of CLAI patients and often is the main reason for a clinical visit [1]. Moreover, most effect sizes of the FAOS subscales in improvement of the SF-36's "change" were larger than those in deterioration of the SF-36's "change", indicating that FAOS items were more sensitive to positive changes in the health status [34]. Anchor-based responsiveness depends on external measures, and here, it was determined by the strength of the association of the FAOS subscale with the SF-36's "change".…”

“…Among the five FAOS subscales, pain was the most responsive, possibly because pain is the most common problem of CLAI patients and often is the main reason for a clinical visit [ 1 , 2 ]. Moreover, most effect sizes of the FAOS subscales in improvement of the SF-36’s “change” were larger than those in deterioration of the SF-36’s “change”, indicating that FAOS items were more sensitive to positive changes in the health status [ 39 ]. Anchor-based responsiveness depends on external measures, and here, it was determined by the strength of the association of the FAOS subscale with the SF-36’s “change”.…”
