About this study

Official title: Study to Translate and Determine the Validity and Reliability of Malay Version of painDETECT Questionnaire (PDQ-M)

The translation and cultural adaptation process of the English version of PDQ will be performed based on international guidelines. Subsequently, patients with neuropathic and nociceptive pain based on clinician's diagnoses will be recruited to complete three-type numeric rating scale (NRS) of pain followed by PDQ-M and SF-36 questionnaire. Patients' socio-demographic data and clinical characteristics will be reported using frequency for categorical variables and mean with standard deviation for continuous variables. Normality will be assessed using Shapiro Wilk test and histograms for continuous variables. Data will be compared between groups using chi-square test (for categorical variables) and t-test or Mann-Whitney's U test (for continuous variables). Suitability of PDQ-M data for factor analysis will be verified using the Bartlett's test of sphericity and the Kaiser-Mayer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy. Parallel analysis will performed to obtain the suitable factors. Construct validity will be investigated by exploratory factorial analysis (EFA) with varimax rotation. A factor loading of >0.40 will be used to determine the items for each factor. The internal consistency of the questionnaire will be assessed using Cronbach's alpha test. A p value of <0.05 is taken as statistically significant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neuropathic Pain, Nociceptive Pain, run by University Malaysia Sarawak at 4 sites in Malaysia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Malaysia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PDQ-M scores (time frame: 2-5 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2023.
