BackgroundThe Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire (DASH) is a valid and reliable patient-reported outcome measure (PROM). It was designed to measure physical disability and symptoms in patients with musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremity, and is one of the most commonly used PROMs for patients with shoulder pain. The aim of this study was to examine responsiveness, the smallest detectable change (SDC) and the minimal important change (MIC) of the DASH, in line with international (COSMIN) recommendations.MethodsThe study sample consisted of 50 patients with subacromial pain syndrome, undergoing physical therapy for 3–4 months. Responsiveness to change was examined by calculating area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) and testing a priori-formulated hypothesis regarding correlations with changes in other instruments that measuring the same construct. The SDC was calculated using a test re-test protocol, and the MIC was calculated by the anchor-based MIC distribution. MIC values for patients with low and high baseline scores were also calculated.ResultsDASH appeared to be responsive, as it was able to distinguish patients who reported to be improved from those unchanged (AUC 0.77). All of the hypotheses were accepted. The SDC was 11.8, and the MIC was 4.4.ConclusionThis study shows that the Norwegian version of the DASH has good responsiveness to change and may thus be recommended to measure outcome in patients with shoulder pain in Norway.

Despite multiple available international scales for assessment of anatomical and functional features of shoulder joint, no unified Russian survey for shoulder joint assessment in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) has been developed so far.Purpose — to develop and validate a test-questionary for shoulder pain (SSp) to diagnose SIS in patients with chronic pain syndrome in the shoulder joint.Material and Methods. Score for shoulder pain (SSp) was validated based on 252 questionnaires including the group of 144 patients with SIS and control group of 108 patients without SIS. age of patients ranged from 50 to 80 years. clinical diagnosis was established using integral clinical and imaging examinations. Internal consistency of survey was evaluated by calculating the cronbach’s alpha. Significance of each question was assessed by calculation of odds ratio (OR). Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and validation threshold for SIS diagnostics were determined by measuring the area under curve (auc). Re-testing reliability was evaluated by intra-class correlation coefficient (Icc) in 60 patients with an interval of 1–3 days. convergent validity was assessed with aSeS and VaS scores. Results. Informative value of the full version of SSp was as follows: 97% sensitivity, 90% specificity, 0.96% auc (95% cI 0,93–0,98), р<0,0001. youden’s index (j) equaled 0.88. Validity threshold for SIS diagnostics was above 18. Intra-class correlation coefficient (Icc) was 0,98 (95% cI 0,98–0,99). The authors reported a high inverse correlation with aSeS scale ρ = -0,9498 (r = -0,95; p<0,001) and direct correlation with VaS scale ρ = 0,8279 (r = 0,83; p<0,001). application of a logic regression resulted in a suggested short version of survey which included 13 questions with threshold for SIS diagnosis above 14 scores. This provided for improvement of intra-test reliability up to 0,93 (95% cI up to 0,91) and the level of clinical use of the short survey version.Conclusion. Short version of survey for shoulder pain (SSp) consisting of 13 questions was validated for clinical use and SIS diagnostics in patients of elderly and middle age with chronic shoulder pain.

“…Most studies that applied the DASH scale used the unifactorial structure 3,14,[34][35][36][37] proposed by the authors. 7,28 In this study, the unifactorial structure could not be adjusted for the Brazilian and American samples, even after refining.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) scale in Brazilian and American dental students and assess the influence of demographic variables on disability in them. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted with a nonprobabilistic sample. The sample was composed of students of both genders from the School of Dentistry of Araraquara, State University of São Paulo (UNESP) (n = 288), and students from Stony Brook University, New York, NY, USA (n = 149). The disabilities of the upper limbs were estimated using the DASH scale. The samples were characterized by collecting information on gender, academic year, and sports and work activities. The refined bifactorial model presented goodness-of-fit indices for both countries. There was a significant effect of the variables gender and academic year for the Brazilian sample and the variable sports practices for the American sample. The refined bifactorial model was valid and reliable for the Brazilian and American populations. In this model, the removal of item 17 for the Brazilian sample and items 3, 13, and 23 for the American sample was necessary. Demographic variables such as gender, academic year, and sports practice contributed significantly to the level of disability in the study populations.
