Background The present study aimed to conduct a systematic review of self-administered shoulder-disability functional assessment questionnaires adapted to Spanish, analyzing the quality of the transcultural adaptation and the clinimetric properties of the new version. Methods A search of the main biomedical databases was conducted to locate Spanish shoulder function assessment scales. The authors reviewed the papers and considered whether the process of adaptation of the questionnaire had followed international recommendations, and whether its psychometric properties had been appropriately assessed. Results The search identified nine shoulder function assessment scales adapted to Spanish: Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire (DASH), Upper Limb Functional Index (ULFI), Simple Shoulder Test (SST), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), Shoulder Disability Questionnaire (SDQ), Western Ontario Rotator Cuff index (WORC), Western Ontario Shoulder Instability index (WOSI) and Wheelchair Users Shoulder Pain Index (WUSPI). The DASH was adapted on three occasions and the SPADI on two. The transcultural adaptation procedure was generally satisfactory, albeit somewhat less rigorous for the SDQ and WUSPI. Reliability was analyzed in all cases. Validity was not measured for one of the adaptations of the DASH, nor was it measured for the SDQ. Conclusions The transcultural adaptation was satisfactory and the psychometric properties analyzed were similar to both the original version and other versions adapted to other languages.

Abstract Background and Purpose. Shoulder scales are often used to evaluate treatment efficacy, yet little is known about the psychometric properties of these scales. Only one scale has undergone psychometric scrutiny: the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI). This study compared 2 shoulder measures—the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) Shoulder Scale and the Simple Shoulder Test (SST)—with the SPADI. Subjects. One hundred ninety-two patients with shoulder disorders were recruited from one physician's office to complete the self-report sections of the 3 scales. Methods. Cronbach alpha values and standard errors of measurement (SEM) were calculated for each of the multi-item subscales. Validity was examined through calculation of correlation coefficients among the 3 scales. Factor analysis was completed to assess the underlying constructs of the SPADI and the SST. Results. Cronbach alpha values ranged from .85 to .95. The SEM values for the multi-item scales ranged from 4.75 to 11.65. Evidence for validity to reflect function was indicated by the correlation between the SST and the SPADI disability subscale. The factor analysis of the SPADI revealed loading on 1 factor, whereas the SST loaded on 2 factors. Conclusion and Discussion. All scales demonstrated good internal consistency, suggesting that all items for each scale measure the same construct. However, the SEMs for all scales were high. Factor loading was inconsistent, suggesting that patients may not distinguish between pain and function.

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of microcurrent stimulation on pain, shoulder function, and grip strength in patients with rotator cuff repair. Materials and Methods: This randomized single-blind controlled trial was conducted on inpatients of the rehabilitation department, and included 28 patients who underwent rotator cuff repair. Participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group (n = 14), treated with microcurrent stimulation, and the control group (n = 14), treated with false microcurrent stimulation. The microcurrent stimulation administered to the experimental group underwent general physical therapy and microcurrent stimulation three times a week for 4 weeks. Results: Changes in pain, range of motion in shoulder, simple shoulder test, and grip strength were assessed before and after the intervention. Both groups showed a significant decrease in pain and shoulder function (t = 27.412, 22.079, 19.079, and 18.561; p < 0.001), and grip strength showed a significant increase (t = −8.251 and −9.946; p < 0.001). The experimental group that underwent microcurrent stimulation exhibited a significant effect on pain, shoulder function, and grip strength compared with the control group that underwent false microcurrent stimulation (t = −2.17, −2.22, and 2.213; p = 0.039, 0.035, and 0.036). Conclusions: This study confirmed that microcurrent stimulation is effective for the treatment of rotator cuff repair patients.

Abstract Background The Musculoskeletal Health Questionnaire (MSK-HQ) is a recently developed generic patient-reported outcome measure (PROM), evaluating impacts of musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions on patients’ health. Its scores range 0-56; higher scores indicate better health. Its performance (a) in patients with MSK-pain in primary care, and (b) compared to MSK pain-site reference PROMs, is uncertain. We addressed these uncertainties through secondary analysis of a previous primary-care based study, enrolling 524 patients with shoulder, neck, lower back, knee, or multi-site MSK pain managed by GPs, from 8 West Midlands practices. Methods The study captured the following self-report questionnaire data at 0 and 6 months: MSK-HQ, EQ-5D-5L, Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (back pain), Neck Disability Index (neck pain), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (shoulder pain), Knee Injury and Outcome Score (knee pain), Short-Form-12 (multisite pain). At 6 months, patients self-rated their global change in MSK pain, from -5 (“very much worse”) to + 5 (“completely recovered”). Receiver operating characteristic curves evaluated the ability of 6-month changes in each PROM to discriminate between patients improving/not improving on global change scores. Minimal Clinically Important Differences (MCID) were calculated (cut-off optimising discriminatory sensitivity/specificity). Results Most (60%) reported pain improvements, with mean baseline MSK-HQ scores rising from 29.4 to 37.4 over 6-months. The MSK-HQ had a moderate ability to discriminate between patients improving vs. no change/worsening in MSK pain (area under the curve [AUC] 0.81; 95% CI 0.78-0.85). Its discriminative ability was better than the EQ-5D-3L (AUC 0.68; 95% CI 0.62-0.73) and at least as good as site-specific PROMs (Table). MCID for the 6-month change in MSK-HQ was 5.5 across all patients. Minor variation (&lt;2.0 units) was observed in MSK-HQ MCID across 4/5 pain sites. The MSK-HQ had strong correlations with all PROMs except SF-12 physical/mental component summary scores. Conclusion In patients consulting in primary care with MSK pain, the MSK-HQ appears at least as good as existing pain-site specific PROMs at identifying patients self-reporting pain improvements, and superior to the EQ-5D-5L. Our results support the use of the MSK-HQ in this setting. Disclosures I.C. Scott None. G. McCray None. G. Lancaster None. N.E. Foster None. J.C. Hill None.

Abstract Background and Purpose. Shoulder dysfunction is common in various patient populations. This investigation was performed to assess shoulder dysfunction with self-report and performance-based functional measures. Subjects. Fifty men (25 with shoulder dysfunction and 25 without shoulder dysfunction) participated in this study. Methods. Self-report functional disabilities were assessed with the Flexilevel Scale of Shoulder Function (FLEX-SF), and electromagnetic tracking sensors were used to monitor 3-dimensional scapular movements during 4 functional tasks. Results. Relative to the control group, the group with shoulder dysfunction showed significant alterations in scapular movements (averages of 6.9° less posterior tipping, 5.7° less upward rotation, and 2.3 cm more elevation). Scapular kinematics correlated significantly (r) with the Self-report FLEX-SF measure during functional tasks (posterior tipping=.454 to .712, upward rotation=.296 and .317, and elevation=−.310). Discussion and Conclusion. Functional disabilities were identified with self-report and performance-based functional measures. The inadequate scapular posterior tipping and scapular upward rotation as well as the excessive elevation may have implications in planning intervention strategies for people with shoulder dysfunction.
