Introduction.
The Manchester Foot Pain and Disability Index (MFPDI) is a 19-item questionnaire for the assessment of disability caused by foot pain.
The aim was to develop a Danish language version of the MFPDI (MFPDI-DK) and evaluate its reproducibility and construct validity.
Methods.
A Danish version was created, following a forward-backward translation procedure.
A sample of 84 adult patients with foot pain was recruited.
Participants completed two copies of the MFPDI-DK within a 24- to 48-hour interval, along with the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36 (SF-36), and a pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
Reproducibility was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and 95% limits of agreement (Bland-Altman plot).
Construct validity was evaluated with Pearson’s Rho, using a priori hypothesized correlations with SF-36 subscales and VASmean.
Results.
The MFPDI-DK showed very good reliability with an ICC of 0.92 (0.88–0.95).
The 95% limits of agreement ranged from −6.03 to 6.03 points.
Construct validity was supported by moderate to very strong correlations with the SF-36 physical subscales and VASmean.
Conclusion.
The MFPDI-DK appears to be a valid and reproducible instrument in evaluating foot-pain-related disability in Danish adult patients in cross-sectional samples.
Further research is needed to test the responsiveness of the MFPDI-DK.
