Development and validation of a bowel-routine-based self-report questionnaire for sacral sparing after spinal cord injury

Abstract: The validity of this questionnaire for the assessment of sacral sparing in up to 12 months post injury is good except for the motor function when there was increased AST. In some situations it could be considered as an alternative tool for digital rectal examination, especially when repeated examinations are not feasible. It is suggested that change of sacral sparing may be detected by the questionnaire.

“…3 The degree of sacral sparing can be determined from a simple 5-item questionnaire. 47 Several questionnaires have been used to assess bowel function after SCI. They each capture different aspects of NBD and none are universally accepted.…”

“…It is proposed that assessment tools regarding functional status would bring more benefits to the patients when performed by self-report, as the self-reported outcome is more efficient in recording the actual experience of patients in their daily lives without the bias from the professional raters [18] . Furthermore, the follow-up of in the chronic stage of SCI usually relies even more on self-administrated assessment given the more convenient data collection [17] , [19] .…”

“…Além disso, trata-se de um exame invasivo, com riscos associados a sangramento retal e estimulação das evacuações, podendo ocorrer uma evacuação durante o teste. 4 Considerando que estas barreiras de aplicação do exame podem inviabilizar a aplicação integral deste, foram propostos métodos alternativos de classificação dos segmentos sacrais [7][8][9][10] ; entre eles, o questionário de autorrelato da função sensorial e motora dos segmentos sacrais S4-S5 (S4-5Q), que provou ser uma alternativa viável. 4 O questionário S4-5Q é composto por quatro questões, sendo três relacionadas às funções sensoriais e uma à função motora.…”

“…4 Considering that these barriers of administering the test may make the full application of the questionnaire unfeasible, alternative methods of classifying the sacral segments have been proposed. [7][8][9][10] Among these, the Self-report S4-5 sensory and motor function questionnaire (S4-5Q) has proven to be a viable alternative. 4 The S4-5Q consists of four questions, three of which are related to sensory functions and one to motor function.…”
