Abstract
The aim of the research is generalization of information about the most common foreign and domestic scales and questionnaires used in acute and chronic back pain (BP). The analysis of Russian-language and foreign literature was carried out with a search depth of 5 years (2016–2021) in the following databases: e-Library, PubMed, Oxford Press, Clinical Keys, Springer, Elsevier, Google Scholar. For the diagnosis of acute and chronic BP and the assessment of the characteristics of its course in dynamics, both a standardized study may be use: collection of complaints, anamnesis, objective examination, assessment of neurological status, as well as valid scales and questionnaires. For the timely diagnosis and monitoring of the development of BP in patients, a wide range of scales and questionnaires were proposed, which were conventionally ranked into 4 groups: scales for assessing the quality of life of patients with BP; scales for assessing the characteristics of pain in BP; scales for assessing the outcomes of the disease in BP; scales for assessing disability in BP. The first part of the thematic review presents an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of scales for assessing the quality of life of patients with BP. These perspective scales for assessing the quality of life of patients with BP are popular in the world neurological practice. It is necessary to adapt to the use in domestic clinical practice the Stratford Functional Back Pain Scale, the Index of Disability Associated with Pain, The Patient Assessment for Low Back Pain–Impacts.
