Read the detailed description

As per the previous recommendations, the Spine Functional Index will be interpreted in urdu language and adapted culturally. Participants will be selected by the convenience sampling technique based on pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria from a total of 220 participants with spinal Disorders. To test the reliability of Urdu Version Of Spine Functional Index, Neck Disability Index and Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire in the inter and intra-observer environment, two observers and an interim interval of 45 minutes between the first and second application fill out a questionnaire on the same day for the inter-observer assessment. Observer-1 for the intra-observer evaluation will conduct a third evaluation after 7 days. Using Statistical Package of Social Sciences version 24, data is entered and analyzed. Cronbach Alpha Value is used to analyze center consistency. The intraclass correlation coefficient is used to assess the reliability of the test-retest. For content validity, criteria validity and responsiveness, the Urdu Version Of Spine Functional Index was assessed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Spine Functional Index

    Spine Functional Index is a single page of 25 items with a three-point respond option. The score of 25 items is summed and this score is then multiplied by four and deducted from 100 (0 % score = max disability or functional loss and 100 % score = no impairments or normal).

    Measured: 1st day

  2. Roland-Morris Questionnaire

    Roland-Morris Questionnaire is a self-administered disability measure in which greater levels of disability are reflected by higher numbers on a 24-point scale.

    Measured: 1st day

  3. Neck Disability Index

    Neck Disability Index contains total 50 scores. 5 marks for each statement. If the response is missing then the score will not be conducted or included in total marks.

    Measured: 1st day

  4. Oswestry Low Back Pain Index

    Oswestry Low Back Pain Index is an extremely important tool that researchers and disability evaluators use to measure a patient's permanent functional disability. The test is considered the 'gold standard' of low back functional outcome tools. A score of 0-20 reflects minimal disability, 21-40 moderate disability, 41-60 severe disability, 61-80 crippled, and 81-100 bed-bound.

    Measured: 1st day
