“…2,26 These studies found similar results, with ICC values ranging from 0.76 to 0.97. 2,26 Puga et al 42 found similar reliability, with an ICC of 0.83 in patients with shoulder complaints. Hefford et al 25 found lower reliability (ICC = 0.71) in patients with upper extremity complaints.…”

“…42 In general, the PSFS scored positively on agreement, test-retest reliability, construct validity, and responsiveness. 2,26 Overall, PSFS scales were more responsive than various musculoskeletal condition-specific questionnaires. 11,39 The aim of this study was to assess the test-retest reliability, construct validity, and responsiveness of the PSFS for measuring disability in patients with a primary nonspecific shoulder complaint presenting in primary care physical therapy.…”

“…47 The PSFS has been validated in various patient groups, including neck pain, upper extremity nerve injury, cervical radiculopathy, knee dysfunction, and low back pain. 2,26,36 In these groups, construct validity was determined by comparing the PSFS to various musculoskeletal disease-specific disability questionnaires, the numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), and quality-of-life measures. Hefford et al 25 found that the PSFS was a valid, reliable, and responsive outcome measure in upper extremity complaints.…”

“…In other studies, AUC scores for the PSFS ranged from 0.71 to 0.99. 2,12,25,26,42 Different GRC scales were used in these studies, varying from 11-point scales to 15-point scales. The MCIC shows that a difference of 1.29 points on the total score of the PSFS represents a clinically meaningful change in disability.…”

Study Design Clinical measurement, longitudinal. Objectives To assess the test-retest reliability, construct validity, and responsiveness of the Patient-Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) in patients with a primary shoulder complaint. Background Health measurement outcomes have become increasingly important for evaluating treatment. Patient-specific questionnaires are useful tools for determining treatment goals and evaluating treatment in individual patients. These questionnaires have not yet been validated in patients with nonspecific shoulder pain. Methods Patients completed the PSFS, the numeric pain rating scale, and the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index at baseline, and after 1 week and 4 to 6 weeks. Test-retest reliability was determined using intraclass correlation coefficients. To assess convergent validity, change scores of the PSFS were correlated with the numeric pain rating scale and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index change scores. Responsiveness was assessed by calculating the area under the curve, the minimal clinically important change, and minimal detectable change, using the global rating of change as an external criterion. Results Fifty patients (37 men; mean age, 47.7 years) participated in the study. Reliability was high (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.87; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.72, 0.94). The correlations between the change scores of the PSFS and those of the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index and numeric pain rating scale were 0.45 (95% CI: 0.17, 0.80) and 0.55 (95% CI: 0.29, 0.73), respectively. The area under the curve for the PSFS was 0.67 (95% CI: 0.51, 0.83). The minimal detectable change and minimal clinically important change were 0.97 and 1.29 points, respectively. Conclusion These results suggest that the PSFS is a reliable, valid, and responsive instrument that can be used as an evaluative instrument in patients with a primary shoulder complaint.

“…MIDs for the NPRS (-1.5 to -3.5), Oswestry Disability Index (-12), Neck Disability Index (-14), Upper Extremity Functional Index (6 to 11), and Lower Extremity Functional Scale (9 to 16) are also reported. 2,13,15 The PSFS has become popular in clinical practice and has demonstrated some evidence of excellent responsiveness to change. 13,15 At this stage, the evidence of the responsiveness of the PSFS across musculoskeletal conditions of all body regions is still incomplete, with only 2 studies reporting the MID for back disorders, 2 for neck disorders, 1 each for knee and upper extremity disorders, and no studies reporting evidence for the hip, leg, ankle, or foot.…”

Evidence related to physical therapist-led intervention for patients with chronic hiprelated groin pain (HRGP) is limited. The purpose was to assess sustainability of treatment effects for people with HRGP undergoing two physical therapist-led interventions. We completed an ancillary analysis of a pilot multicenter, randomized clinical trial. Forty-six patients with chronic HRGP, 15-40 years, were enrolled. Patients were randomized to participate in 10 sessions over 12 weeks of either movement pattern training (MoveTrain) or traditional strength/flexibility (Standard). Participants completed self-report questionnaires before treatment and 6 and 12 months after treatment completion. Outcome measures included Hip disability and Osteoarthritis and Outcome Score (HOOS), Patient Specific Functional Scale and Numeric Pain Rating Scale for average and worst pain. Continuous data were analyzed with mixed model repeated measures analysis of variance (RM-ANOVA) within each group. Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) was analyzed using multinomial generalized estimating equations (GEE) with a cumulative logit.Reported p values are from statistical contrasts within the RM-ANOVAs and GEEs testing a priori hypotheses regarding change from pretest to month 6, and pretest to month 12. A total of 43/46 (93.5%) participants completed treatment, 40 (87.0%) completed 6 and 38 (82.6%) completed 12 month questionnaires. At 6 and 12 months, both groups demonstrated clinically significant improvements, compared to pretest, in all subscales of HOOS (p < 0.01), Patient Specific Functional Scale (p < 0.001), and NPRS (p < 0.0001). Among patients with chronic HRGP, both MoveTrain and Standard resulted in improved outcomes that were sustained 12 months after treatment. Further investigation in a larger sample is needed to confirm our findings.
