“…With regard to construct validity, the factor analysis confirmed a two-factor structure of the Italian CBPI (i.e., pain severity factor and pain interference factor), consistent with what was previously found for the English as well as the French version of the questionnaire (10,15). Notably, the factor loading for every item of the Italian CBPI resulted higher than the established cut-off value (0.32), while the factor loading for one of the questions in the pain interference domain of the French version (i.e., enjoyment of life) fell below (15). It follows that the Italian CBPI has the same number of factors and the same questionnaire structure as the original English version.…”

“…Consistent with the English and French versions (10,15), the Italian CBPI showed a strong negative correlation between pain scores (i.e., PSS and PIS) and the overall QoL score, thus confirming that higher pain is related to poorer dog's quality of life (convergent validity).…”

“…As is the case with most pain scoring systems, the CBPI was originally developed in the English language, with Swedish and French versions being recently validated (14,15). According to a recent survey by the British Council only about 12% of Italians have a good English language skills, which likely contributes to why pain-scoring systems are rarely used by Italian veterinarians for the assessment of pain (16).…”

The Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI) is an owner-administered questionnaire, originally developed and validated in English, used to assess canine chronic pain in terms of severity and interference with daily life activities. The aim of the present study was to perform a preliminary validation of an Italian version of the CBPI. Translation was performed and the resulting questionnaire was administered to 45 native Italian speaking owners of dogs suffering from chronic pain due to radiographically confirmed osteoarthritis. Psychometric properties of the Italian CBPI including construct validity, convergent validity and reliability were evaluated. Construct validity was assessed by factor analysis and confirmed a two-factor model (i.e., pain severity and interference factors). The respective scores, that is, the pain severity score (PSS) and pain interference score (PIS), exhibited a substantial negative correlation with overall quality of life score. Pain severity and interference items showed a mean inter-item correlation of 0.90 and 0.80, respectively. For each question, communality ranged from 0.84 to 0.97, highlighting strong internal consistency and suggesting that PSS and PIS can be calculated by averaging the items contained within each factor. Cronbach's α was 0.97 and 0.96 for PSS and PIS, respectively. The present findings confirmed the main psychometric properties of the Italian version of the CBPI, providing clinicians and researchers with a useful metrology instrument to evaluate the severity of chronic pain and its interference with daily life activities in dogs with osteoarthritis owned by Italian speaking people. Further properties of the questionnaire need to be evaluated in future research and larger studies are warranted.

“…At each visit (days 0, 7, 14 and 21), dog owners were asked to complete the client specific-outcome measures (CSOM) [12] and the French version of the Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI) [13,14]. To complete the CSOM, owners listed three activities that were impaired due to pain or that elicited pain (e.g.…”

Pain burden, sensory profile and inflammatory cytokines of dogs with naturally-occurring neuropathic pain treated with gabapentin alone or with meloxicam

Canine neuropathic pain (NeuP) has been poorly investigated. This study aimed to evaluate the pain burden, sensory profile and inflammatory cytokines in dogs with naturally-occurring NeuP. Twenty-nine client-owned dogs with NeuP were included in a prospective, partially masked, randomized crossover clinical trial, and treated with gabapentin/placebo/gabapentin-meloxicam or gabapentin-meloxicam/placebo/gabapentin (each treatment block of 7 days; total 21 days). Pain scores, mechanical (MNT) and electrical (ENT) nociceptive thresholds and descending noxious inhibitory controls (DNIC) were assessed at baseline, days 7, 14, and 21. DNIC was evaluated using ΔMNT (after-before conditioning stimulus). Positive or negative ΔMNT corresponded to inhibitory or facilitatory pain profiles, respectively. Pain scores were recorded using the Client Specific Outcome Measures (CSOM), Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI), and short-form Glasgow Composite Measure Pain Scale (CMPS-SF). Data from baseline were compared to those of sixteen healthy controls. ΔMNT, but not MNT and ENT, was significantly larger in controls (2.3 ± 0.9 N) than in NeuP (-0.2 ± 0.7 N). The percentage of dogs with facilitatory sensory profile was similar at baseline and after placebo (61.5–63%), and between controls and after gabapentin (33.3–34.6%). The CBPI scores were significantly different between gabapentin (CBPI pain and CBPI overall impression) and/or gabapentin-meloxicam (CBPI pain and interference) when compared with baseline, but not placebo. The CBPI scores were not significantly different between placebo and baseline. The concentration of cytokines was not different between groups or treatments. Dogs with NeuP have deficient inhibitory pain mechanisms. Pain burden was reduced after gabapentin and/or gabapentin-meloxicam when compared with baseline using CBPI and CMPS-SF scores. However, these scores were not superior than placebo, nor placebo was superior to baseline evaluations. A caregiver placebo effect may have biased the results.

“…Since its initial development in US English, the CBPI has been translated and validated for use in Swedish ( 11 ), French ( 12 ) and Italian ( 13 ), with initial psychometric validation of the French CBPI indicating evidence of construct validity, convergent validity, and strong internal consistency ( 12 ). The aim of this study was to develop conceptually equivalent and culturally relevant versions of the CBPI for use in Australia (English), Ireland (English), China (Chinese, simplified), Japan (Japanese), Hungary (Hungarian), Germany (German), Portugal (Portuguese), and the Netherlands (Dutch), as a first step in establishing the CBPI as an internationally validated owner-reported measure for evaluating pain in dogs.…”

A valid and reliable quantitative measure of chronic pain is essential for developing and evaluating interventions that aim to treat pain. In dogs, the Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI) was originally adapted from a human measure, the Brief Pain Inventory, to assess owner-perceived pain and the impact of such pain on a dog's daily functioning. To be reliable and valid, data collected using a translated instrument should have evidence it is an accurate representation of the original instrument and is culturally appropriate for use in the intended context. To achieve this, instruments should undergo a rigorous translation process and be debriefed in the intended population of use. The CBPI is widely accepted and has been fully validated for use in US-English, Swedish, Italian, and French (France); further translation and validation of the CBPI is required to increase access to and use in other languages and countries. The objective of this study was to linguistically validate the CBPI for global use (Australia, China, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Japan, Netherlands and Portugal). In cognitive debriefing with a representative sample of dog owners in the target countries it was confirmed that the translations of the CBPI adequately convey the concepts in the original US-English version and that items are easily understood by dog owners. The results of the linguistic validation process thus produced measures that are conceptually equivalent to the original US-English-language CBPI and are culturally appropriate for use in the target countries.
