The use of standardized self-report questionnaires provide a more convenient and reliable method of measuring activity limitations associated with low back problems, and of monitoring response to treatment.
Patient-specific questionnaires are structured assessments in which the patient is asked to identify activity limitations they are experiencing.
Health measurement scales have many applications in health care. In particular, they provide a cost-effective method of collecting information on the impact of disease or injury on human activity. The most obvious benefit is the capture of outcomes of importance to clients, that is, improvement in their ability to perform everyday activities.
The information collected can also be used in treatment planning and therapeutic goal setting that recognizes the patient priorities. The systematic and comprehensive assessment of health status by self-report may also identify problems that would otherwise have gone undetected. The use of self-report measure of function improves doctor-client communication and client satisfaction with care.
Regular reassessment using a self-report questionnaire (along with other clinically-based assessments) can assist in monitoring response to treatment and the results used to proved feedback to patients to justify continued or change management or to define an end-point of treatment.
