“…However, these questionnaires are limited by their only assessing one domain. Most questionnaires are a compromise between survey length and precision [6,7]. The Core Outcome Measures Index (COMI) [8,9] is a brief, multidimensional instrument that has proven to be reliable, valid and highly responsive [9,10] and has become the main tool for the Spine Tango registry of EUROSPINE [11].…”

Background: To conduct a cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the Core Outcome Measures Index (COMI) in the Slovenian language, for use in patients with low back pain. Methods: The English version of COMI was translated into Slovene following established guidelines. Three hundred fifty-three patients with chronic low back pain were recruited from the Orthopedic clinic department of a tertiary care teaching institution. Data quality, construct validity, responsiveness, and test-retest reliability of the COMI were assessed. Results: The questionnaire was generally well accepted with no missing values. The majority of items exhibited only mild ceiling effects (below 20.0%) and somewhat more prominent floor effects, which were similar to previous studies (4.5-78.8%). Correlations with Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were high (ρ = 0.76 between overall COMI and ODI scores), suggesting that the Slovene version of COMI had high construct validity. Additionally, the Slovene version of COMI successfully captured surgical patients' improvement in their low back problem after surgery (overall COMI score change: Z = − 9.34, p < .001, r = − 0.53) and showed acceptable test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.86). Conclusions: The Slovene version of COMI showed good psychometric properties, comparable to those of previously tested language versions. It represents a valuable instrument for the use in future domestic and multicenter clinical studies.

“…The COMI has been shown to be a valuable instrument and been recommended for further use as a standardised outcome measure in clinical practice, clinical trials, multi-centre studies and surgical registries [7]. It is short, easy to administer, and to date has been translated and cross-cultural adapted into several different languages; Brazilian-Portuguese [8], Chinese [9], French [10,11], Hungarian [12], Italian [13], Japanese [14], Korean [15], Norwegian [16] and Polish [17]. So far, the COMI has been used as an outcome measure in several clinical studies [18][19][20] and in the International EUROSPINE Spine Tango registry [21].…”

Purpose There is a wide selection of instruments and questionnaires available, but many are time consuming in their administration, for patients, practitioners and researchers alike. The Core Outcome Measures Index (COMI) is a short, selfadministrated, multidimensional instrument translated into several languages that covers five domains recommended in the assessment of outcome in patients with low-back pain. The purpose of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the COMI from English to Swedish and to test the face and construct validity and reproducibility of its results in patients with low-back pain. Methods Participants (n = 102) were included from primary and secondary care. The participants reported moderate pain and disability levels. All participants filled in the COMI, the Oswestry Disability Index and the EQ5D at baseline. Forty-nine filled in the COMI again after 7 days for the reproducibility part of the study. Results The instrument was successfully forward and back-translated. In the validation process, there were low floor/ceiling effects, with the exception of the symptom-specific well-being (floor) and work disability (ceiling) items. The specific COMI domains and whole score correlated significantly with the chosen reference scale scores to the hypothesised extent (Rho 0.30-0.60 and > 0.60 respectively). COMI reached ICC 0.63 (95% CI 0.42-0.77) in the reproducibility test and the separate items, ICC 0.41-0.78. Conclusions The Swedish COMI shows acceptable psychometric properties and is thus suitable to use as a short instrument for measuring important domains in patients with low-back pain. A future study should investigate the instrument's sensitivity to measure change after treatment.

Conclusions: The Slovene version of COMI showed good psychometric properties, comparable to those of previously tested language versions. It represents a valuable instrument for the use in future domestic and multicenter clinical studies.
