Abstract

Single-center observational study. To perform the translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and analysis of the measurement properties of the Spanish version of the Spinal Cord Injury Pain Instrument (SCIPI) for the screening of neuropathic pain (NP) in spinal cord injury (SCI). Hospital, Spain. Participants with SCI and pain were included for the pre-final version (n = 10) and the final version (n = 136). Translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the SCIPI were performed by native speakers in both languages. The statistical analysis included internal consistency, validity, test-retest reliability, and diagnostic accuracy. All the items of the pre-final version of the SCIPI were understood. Moderate test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.78, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.69 to 0.84, p < 0.001) and CR coefficient of internal consistency of 0.484 were found. Strong correlations between the SCIPI and the Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4) were revealed (rho = 0.619, p < 0.001). The best cutoff value was 2 points, with an outstanding discriminant ability according to the area under the curve (AUC) value (AUC = 0.937) associated with high sensitivity (91.13%) and specificity (91.67%). The Spanish version of the SCIPI may be a reliable and valid tool, with an excellent discriminant ability, for the screening of NP in people with SCI.

西语版脊髓损伤疼痛仪（SCIPI）的翻译、跨文化适应和验证。

研究设计：单中心观察性研究。目的：对西班牙语版脊髓损伤疼痛仪（SCIPI）进行翻译、跨文化适应和测量特性分析，用于脊髓损伤（SCI）神经性疼痛（NP）的筛查。地点：医院，西班牙。方法：纳入脊髓损伤和疼痛的参与者进行预终版（n = 10）和终版（n = 136）。由两种语言的母语人士进行SCIPI的翻译和跨文化改编。统计分析包括内部一致性、效度、重测信度和诊断准确性。结果：SCIPI预定稿的所有项目均被理解。中等重测信度(类内相关系数（ICC) = 0.78, 95%可信区间（CI）， 0.69 ~ 0.84, p）结论：西班牙语版SCIPI可能是一种可靠有效的工具，具有良好的判别能力，可用于筛选脊髓损伤患者的NP。

期刊介绍： Spinal Cord is a specialised, international journal that has been publishing spinal cord related manuscripts since 1963. It appears monthly, online and in print, and accepts contributions on spinal cord anatomy, physiology, management of injury and disease, and the quality of life and life circumstances of people with a spinal cord injury. Spinal Cord is multi-disciplinary and publishes contributions across the entire spectrum of research ranging from basic science to applied clinical research. It focuses on high quality original research, systematic reviews and narrative reviews. Spinal Cord''s sister journal Spinal Cord Series and Cases: Clinical Management in Spinal Cord Disorders publishes high quality case reports, small case series, pilot and retrospective studies perspectives, Pulse survey articles, Point-couterpoint articles, correspondences and book reviews. It specialises in material that addresses all aspects of life for persons with spinal cord injuries or disorders. For more information, please see the aims and scope of Spinal Cord Series and Cases.
