Objective
[edit | edit source]
The NDI is a modification of the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index. It is a patient-completed, condition-specific functional status questionnaire with 10 items including pain, personal care, lifting, reading, headaches, concentration, work, driving, sleeping and recreation. The NDI has sufficient support and usefulness to retain its current status as the most commonly used self-report measure for neck pain[1].
Intended Population[edit | edit source]
Chronic neck pain, musculoskeletal neck pain and whiplash injuries.
Method of Use
[edit | edit source]
The NDI can be scored as raw score [2] or doubled, and expressed as a percent [3]. Each section is scored on a 0-5 scale, with the first statement being “0” (ie. No pain) and the last statement being “5” (ie. Worst imaginable pain). A higher score indicates more patient-rated disability. There is no statement in the original literature on how to handle missing data. To use the NDI for patient decisions, a clinically important change was calculated as 5 points, with a sensitivity of 0.78 and a specificity of 0.80[4].

Responsiveness[edit | edit source]
The NDI appears to demonstrate adequate responsiveness in patients with neck pain and concomitant upper extrmity referred symptoms[6]. Young et al [6] suggest that a 10-point change should be used as the minimum clinically important difference.
