Cervical spondy lotic myelopathy (CSM) is a common cause of significant clinical morbidity.
The Japanese Orthopedic Association Cervical Myelopathy Evaluation Questionnaire (JOACMEQ) is a measure of health-related quality of life in these patients. Objectives : This study aimed to cross-culturally translate and validate the JOACMEQ in Iran. Patients and Methods: This study was a prospective clinical validation one.
Forward-backward procedure was applied to translate the questionnaire from English into Persian.
The translation and cross-cultural adaptation were performed in accordance with the published guidelines.
A sample of patients with CSM was asked to respond to the questionnaire at two times : providing preoperative and postoperative assessments (6 months follow-up).
To test the reliability, the internal consistency was assessed by Cronbach α coefficient and the validity was assessed by convergent validity.
Responsiveness to change was also assessed comparing patients’ preoperative and postoperative scores. Results : All 87 patients completed the questionnaire.
The Cronbach α coefficient for the JOACMEQ at preoperative and postoperative assessments ranged from 0.71 to 0.82 indicating a good internal consistency for the questionnaire.
In addition, the correlation of each item with its hypothesized subscale of the JOACMEQ showed satisfactory results suggesting that the items had a substantial association with their own subscales.
Further analysis also indicated that the questionnaire was responsive to change (P < 0.001). Conclusions : In general, the findings suggest that the Persian version of the JOACMEQ is a reliable and valid measure of functionality and quality of life evaluation among Iranian patients suffered from CSM.
