They concluded that OMPSQ could be used as tool for predicting functional outcomes at 8 weeks after the initial manual therapy assessment in patients with LBP, whereas the ability for predicting outcomes of patients with neck pain is uncertain. To date, OMPSQ has been mainly used in patients with LBP, and few authors have reported using OMPSQ in patients with neck pain. The original (long-form) version has not previously been translated into German and tested for its psychometric properties. The short-form OMPSQ has been translated into German. OMPSQ has been translated into French, Turkish, Spanish, Chinese, Brazilian–Portuguese, Persian, including a short form of the questionnaire. OMPSQ can be used to identify patients with spinal pain. A frequently used assessment of LBP is the Orebro musculoskeletal pain screening questionnaire (OMPSQ), developed by Linton and Hallden. Only low back pain (LBP) causes more time off work than neck pain. Neck pain is a common complaint that affects 70% of individuals at least once in their lifetime. OMPSQ-G showed good validity and reliability in patients with neck pain. The Bland–Altman plot indicated no systematic error. OMPSQ-G showed high reliability (intraclass correlation 2.1: 0.93 standard error of measurement, 6.9 smallest detectable change, 20 points). OMPSQ-G scores highly and moderately correlated with NDI-G (ρ = 0.70) and VAS (ρ = 0.41) scores, respectively. Mann–Whitney U tests showed significant differences in OMPSQ scores between both groups at the baseline (z = − 4.6 p < 0.001) and second time point (z = − 4.8 p < 0.001). Fifty patients with chronic neck pain (mean age, 43.6 years 34 females) and 24 healthy adults (mean age, 50.4 years 18 females) participated. Floor and ceiling effects, internal consistency, test–retest and relative reliability were assessed.

Convergent validity was assessed using Pearson’s correlation coefficients between domains of OMPSQ-G and the German version of neck disability index (NDI-G) and visual analogue scale (VAS) of neck pain intensity.

ResultsĪfter translating OMPSQ to German, we assessed the discriminant validity between patients and healthy adults. To validate the German version of OMPSQ (OMPSQ-G) for patients with chronic neck pain.
