Chapter 38 Outcome Measurements for Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Spine Techniques

Back-specific function measures

BOX 38-2 The Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RDQ)* [1]

When your back hurts, you may find it difficult to do some things you normally do. This list contains sentences that people have used to describe themselves when they have back pain. When you read them, you may find that some stand out because they describe you today. As you read the list, think of yourself today. When you read a sentence that describes you today, put a tick against it. If the sentence does not describe you, then leave the space blank and go on to the next one. Remember; only tick the sentence if you are sure it describes you today.

BOX 38-3 Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (ODQ) [2]

Could you please complete this questionnaire? It is designed to give us information as to how your back (or leg) trouble has affected your ability to manage in everyday life. Please answer every section. Mark one box only in each section that most closely describes you today.
