Translation, Cultural Adaptation, Reliability, and Validity of the Turkish Version of the Cervical Radiculopathy Impact Scale

May 1, 2021 updated by: Halime ARIKAN, Gazi University
The purpose of this study was to investigate adaptation, validity, and reliability of the Turkish version of the Cervical Radiculopathy Impact Scale (CRIS).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Cervical radicular syndrome is a common health problem that causes pain in the arm and / or hand and is accompanied by motor and / or sensory defects. These symptoms often have an intensity that prevents normal function. For individuals with cervical radicular syndrome, there is a lack of a patient-reported outcome measurement tool to measure the impact of the disorder. The Cervical Radiculopathy Impact Scale (CRIS), which focuses on the symptoms and functionality of the arm and neck, was developed to improve the quality of studies on cervical radicular syndrome. CRIS is a newly developed self-report questionnaire that covers the measurement of symptoms and limitations in individuals with cervical radiculopathy due to pain, tingling sensation, and loss of sensation in the arm with neck discomfort. The CRIS consists of 21 items divided into three subscales: (i) symptoms, (ii) energy and postures, and (iii) actions and activities. Each item contains a likert type answer and takes a value between 1 and 5. The study is planned with 105 individuals with hip disease. After questioning the sociodemographic characteristics of the individuals, the patients will be asked to fill in CRIS, EQ-5D Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire, Neck Disability Index, Quick Disabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Hand, Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Short Form-36 and Visual Analog Scale. Test-retest will be re-applied to those of the same individuals who can be reached after 1 week. The results will be analyzed using the SPSS version 22.0 computer package program.
