Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Numeric Pain Rating Scale, Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), SF-12 Health Survey, Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ), Global Rating of Change Scale and Back Beliefs Questionnaire (BBQ) are important and widely used validated patient self-reported measures commonly used in clinical trials and health research involving patients with low back pain (LBP). However, to date, validated Hausa versions of these tools are unavailable for use despite not only Hausa language is commonly spoken in Nigeria but in other parts of the world.

The purpose of this study is to perform, using evidence-based guidelines, translation, cultural adaptation and validation of the ODI, NPRS, RMDQ, SF-12 health survey, FABQ, PCS, GROC and BBQ into Hausa language among patients with LBP in Northern Nigeria.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will test the psychometric properties (i.e validity; reliability, and ceiling effect) of the ODI-H, NPRS, RMDQ-H, SF-12-H, FABQ-H, PCS-H, GROC and BBQ-H in Hausa-speaking patients with LBP. Rural and urban participants with LBP will be recruited purposively. Copies of the translated Hausa versions of the NPRS, ODI, RMDQ, SF-12, FABQ, PCS, BBQ as well as VAS for pain and disability will be self or interviewer-administered. Lumbopelvic mobility using finger-floor distance test (FFD) will be also measured. The Hausa versions of the ODI, NPRS, RMDQ, SF-12, FABQ, PCS, GROC and BBQ will be administered again a week after.

Data will be analysed using descriptive, correlation, and factorial analysis on IBM SPSS (version 23.0) at alpha level of 0.05.
