Rhinoplasty is a common operation in which shape and function are intimately related, whether the procedure cosmetic, functional, or combined nature. There currently no properly developed validated patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) to evaluate both functional cosmetic components of rhinoplasty.To develop, validate, field test Standardized Cosmesis Health Nasal Outcomes Survey (SCHNOS) outcomes rhinoplasty.Survey development study between October 2016 April 2017 tertiary referral facial...

Abstract Background The objective of this study was to explore the internal consistency and factor structure Oswestry Disability Index among patients undergoing spinal surgery. sample consisted 1,515 who underwent lumbar surgery at a university hospital between 2018 2021. Methods responded within 2 months before Cronbach’s alpha used assess consistency. evaluated using exploratory confirmatory analyses. Results average age 58.5 (SD 15.8) years 53% were women. mean ODI score 43.4% 17.4%). Of...

The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) in a large cross-sectional cohort individuals with chronic low back pain by defining its internal consistency, construct structure and validity, ability differentiate between different degrees functional limitation. A total 837 consecutive outpatient patients were studied. consistency ODI assessed Cronbach's α, exploratory factor analysis, validity confirmatory discrimination determined item...

The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for the Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey (SCHNOS) has not been determined.The authors sought to define MCID both domains of SCHNOS questionnaire.This prospective cohort study included patients who underwent functional, cosmetic, or combined rhinoplasty operation from June 2017 2018 at a tertiary referral center. average preoperative, postoperative, change in scores were calculated nasal obstruction symptom evaluation...

Abstract Background Identifying mental health disorders, including body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), is important prior to rhinoplasty surgery; however, these disorders are underdiagnosed, and screening tools underutilized in clinical settings. Objectives The authors sought evaluate the correlation of a outcomes tool (Standardized Cosmesis Health Nasal Outcomes Survey [SCHNOS]) with psychiatric tools. Methods Patients presenting for consultation were prospectively enrolled administered...

Objectives To assess the internal consistency and construct validity of Finnish translation Jenkins Sleep Scale (JSS) in a large healthy working-age population with diverse work characteristics. Design Survey-based cross-sectional cohort study. Setting Survey conducted by an institute occupational health. Participants Employees 10 towns 6 hospital districts. Primary secondary outcome measures The defined Cronbach’s alpha. Exploratory confirmatory factor analyses to evaluate structure JSS....

Background and purpose — While the number of working-age patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasing, effect surgery on patients' return to work (RTW) not thoroughly studied. We aimed identify risk factors RTW after THA among related demographic variables, general health, health behaviors, socioeconomic status. Patients methods studied 408 employees from Finnish Public Sector (FPS) cohort (mean age 54 years, 73% women) who underwent THA. Information preceding health-risk...

Background and aims Previous studies in lumbar spine surgery have mainly studied functioning pain by comparing average scores from Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) at different time points. Less is known about these changes subgroups. It self-evident that, while most patients may demonstrate trajectories of close to the one, some groups follow more or less trends. Also, it unclear which preoperative factors affect probability being classified into with development surgical outcome....

Background: The rise of social media parallels a mental health epidemic. effect usage on rates and severity body dysmorphic disorder is not well-understood. Objective: To determine if an association exists between engagement, dysmorphia symptoms, and/or interest in cosmetic surgery demographically diverse cross-section the U.S. adult population. Methods: In Qualtrics platform-based survey study general population, responses to demographic information, activity questionnaire screening...

Background and purpose: The Oswestry Disability Index has usually only been used as a composite score but, according to previous studies, disability caused by back pain may be too broad concept explained single number. We aimed analyze changes in each ODI item’s from preoperative 3, 12, 24 months after surgery creating functional profile.Methods: This was register-based study of 1,451 patients undergoing lumbar spinal between 2018 2021. responded repeated survey preoperatively surgery....

To explore the convergent validity of 12-item World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) comparing it to Neck Index (NDI). Cross-sectional cohort study. 962 patients visiting a university outpatient Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic due musculoskeletal complaints. Spearman´s rank correlation between WHODAS 2.0 NDI. The average age was 49.2 (SD 14.5) years, 67% were women. Of all possible 143 correlations NDI, 99 (69%) positive, significant strong or, at...
