“…The Norwegian version of the FIHOA identified a single component . The Persian version of FIHOA extracted the following two factors: a certain degree of strength and accurate finger movement with wrist stability . The Italian version of the FIHOA revealed the following three components: accurate and proper finger movement, the ability of the wrist to support a certain amount of strength, and certain grip strength level while tightening the hand …”

“…Therefore, the reliability and validity were not separately conducted. Considering the diversity of the proportion of male patients among previous reports (from 10.8% to 62.5%), and the homogeneity of the reliability and validity of FIHOA, having included only 6 men may be acceptable . Osteoarthritis of the hand is also more prevalent in women than it is in men.…”

“…Instead, we conducted this analysis using pain VAS and mHAQ, tools that are available regardless of the disease. However, the external validity of the FIHOA has been repeatedly analyzed with OA‐specific tools including AUSCAN, AIMS‐2 and grip strength, and the reliability has also already been proven …”

“…FIHOA, so far, has been translated into 18 different languages, and is in the process of cross‐cultural adaptation and validation in three additional linguistic versions. The reliability and validity of FIHOA have been studied and published already for the Dutch, Italian, Norwegian and Persian translations . All available linguistic versions and references can be accessed on the FIHOA website and subsequently used .…”

Aim: This study aimed to translate the Functional Index for Hand Osteoarthritis (FIHOA) into Korean, and establish its reliability and validity in Korean patients with hand osteoarthritis (OA). Method:The FIHOA was translated into Korean (K-FIHOA) following cross-cultural adaptation guidelines. The K-FIHOA was pretested on 40 patients with hand OA. The adapted K-FIHOA was then administered to 100 consecutive hand OA patients together with the modified Health Assessment Questionnaire (mHAQ) and visual analog scale (VAS) for hand pain. The test-retest reliability of each item and total scores were assessed using Spearman's correlation coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The internal consistency reliability was evaluated as Cronbach's alpha. The external construct validity was assessed using the correlation between K-FIHOA, mHAQ and hand pain VAS. Results:The test-retest reliability for the total score was strong (r = 0.87 and ICC = 0.83). Cronbach's alpha was also high (0.88), which suggests that there is strong internal coherence in the test items. We identified significant correlations between K-FIHOA and mHAQ (r = 0.52, P < 0.01), mHAQ hand function score, (r = 0.57, P < 0.01) and hand pain VAS (r = 0.53, P < 0.01). Conclusion:The K-FIHOA is a reliable and valid instrument for evaluating functional disability in Korean hand OA patients.

“…Approximately twenty linguistic versions are available and others are being developed [28][29][30][31] Osteoarthritis and Musculoskeletal Diseases (ESCEO) [32,33]. Introducing the FIHOA to Japan will not only stimulate Japanese research but also add to the cumulative knowledge of hand OA.…”

Background: Hand osteoarthritis (OA) has a wide spectrum of clinical presentations and physical function is one of the core domains where patients suffer. The Functional Index for Hand Osteoarthritis (FIHOA) is a leading assessment tool for hand OA-related functional impairment. Our objective was to make a Japanese version of FIHOA (J-FIHOA) and validate it among Japanese hand OA patients. Methods: Forward and backward translation processes were completed to create a culturally adapted J-FIHOA. A prospective, observational multicenter study was undertaken for the validation process. Seventeen collaborating hospitals recruited Japanese hand OA patients who met the American College of Rheumatology criteria. A medical record review and responses to the following patient-rated questionnaires were collected: J-FIHOA, Hand20, Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), numerical rating scale for pain (NRS pain) and Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36). We explored the structure of J-FIHOA using factor analysis. Cronbach’s alpha coefficients and item-total correlations were calculated. Correlations between J-FIHOA and other questionnaires were evaluated for construct validity. Participants in clinically stable conditions repeated J-FIHOA at a one- to two-week interval to assess test-retest reliability. To evaluate responsiveness, symptomatic patients who started new pharmacological treatments had a 1-month follow-up visit and completed the questionnaires twice. Effect size (ES) and standardized response mean (SRM) were calculated with pre- and post-treatment data sets. We assessed responsiveness, comparing ES and SRM of J-FIHOA with other questionnaires (construct approach). Results: A total of 210 patients participated. J-FIHOA had unidimensional structure. Cronbach’s alphas (0.914 among females and 0.929 among males) and item-total correlations (range, 0.508 to 0.881) revealed high internal consistency. Hand20, which measures upper extremity disability, was strongly correlated with J-FIHOA (r=0.82) while the mental and role-social components of SF-36 showed no correlations (r=−0.24 and −0.26, respectively). Intraclass correlation coefficient for test-retest reliability was 0.83 and satisfactory. J-FIHOA showed the highest ES and SRM (−0.68 and −0.62, respectively) among all questionnaires, except for NRS pain. Conclusions: Our results showed J-FIHOA had good measurement properties to assess physical function in Japanese hand OA patients both for ambulatory follow-up in clinical practice, and clinical research and therapeutic trials.
