摘要:Objective. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to translate, validate and perform a cultural adaptation of thePolish version of the Swiss Spinal Stenosis Questionnaire (P-SSSQ), a disease-specific questionnaire for assessing symptomseverity, physical function and satisfaction with treatment in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS).Materials and method. Patients were prospectively recruited at two orthopedic centres in Krakow, Poland, between January2011 – October 2016. During the interview, each patient completed the P-SSSQ, SF-36 Health Survey, and a demographicdata questionnaire. After translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and pilot testing, assessment was made of the internalconsistency, test–retest reliability, construct validity, and responsiveness of the P-SSSQ subscales.Results. Finally, 171 consecutive patients were included in the study. Cronbach’s alpha and ICC values were above 0.8 forall three subscales of the P-SSSQ. The symptom severity domain was highly negatively correlated with physical functioningand bodily pain of SF-36, with Pearson correlation coefficients of -0.68 and -0.63, respectively. The physical function domainwas highly negatively correlated with physical functioning (r = -0.62). The satisfaction subscale was also highly negativelycorrelated with the change in the symptom severity (r = −0.61) and physical function scale (r = −0.65).Conclusions. The proposed version of the P-SSSQ showed excellent measurement properties and can be consideredvalidated for use in Polish. It is easy to understand, quick to complete, and the psychometric properties of the originalversion are maintained.
