Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this exploratory study was to determine whether Native American clients seen at a University Counseling Center had different treatment outcomes than did Caucasian clients according to the Outcome Questionnaire-45 (OQ) given at the first and final sessions. Methods: Participants included self-identified 21 Native American and 105 Caucasian clients who received services over the past 7 years and who had OQ-45 scores. Results: American Indian total scores on the OQ-45 were not that much different from Caucasian scores. As a whole, both groups showed no significant change in OQ-45 scores at the end of treatment. Discussion: Given the lack of research on this important group of color, these findings provide a unique comparison to a previous studies and suggest further research is needed about the effectiveness of therapeutic outcomes and practices with Native American clients.

Abstract:
IntroductionThe outcome questionnaire (OQ-45) has been one of the most frequently used instrument to measure clinical outcomes in psychotherapy. Probably due to its subscale structure, its applicability for a variety of disorders and life struggles, its sensitivity to change by repeated measurements and its predictive ability. Given its popularity, OQ-45 has been translated into several languages.ObjectiveAs the Spanish version has not been published, through this poster it is going to show the reliability and the dimensional structure of the OQ-45.MethodOne hundred and thirty-nine patients in clinical settings have completed the Spanish version. Three different confirmatory factor analysis have been calculated to analyze the construct validity.ResultsThe Cronbach Alpha of the instrument was adequate .92, but also, in the three dimensions: symptoms distress (.90), interpersonal relations (.78) and social role (.66). Through the CFA was proved that the Four-factor bi-level model structure [χ2(900) = 3930.47, P < .001, AGF = .86, CFI = .91, RMSEA = .061(.049 to .073)]suited appropriately, in fact, more properly than the three-factor correlated or the three-factor with a second order factor models.DiscussionThe three-factor bi-level model structure of the OQ-45 is confirmed indicating an empirically and clinically relevant measure of client functioning. In this model each item loaded on one of the three subscales originally created. Besides, each item also captures common variance represented by the general factor of overall maladjustment, where this factor may indicate the degree to which respondents are functionally impaired. Thus, OQ-45 is an instrument that could be used for monitoring treatment efficacy and for making informed decisions about clinically significant changes.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:
The researchers employed a confirmatory tetrad analysis (CTA) using partial least squares–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) with Outcome Questionnaire–45.2 (OQ-45) data, examining the measurement model of the OQ-45 scores with a sample of male adult clients ( N = 1,558) receiving individual therapy at a university-based community counseling and research center (UBCCRC). Using CTA-PLS, this study examined the reflective and formative nature of each of the OQ-45 items and dimensions. These results identified the innovative second-order formative–formative three-factor model as a best alternative measurement model to represent and calculate the scores of OQ-45 scale.

Abstract:
O Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45) é um instrumento desenvolvido com a finalidade de avaliar o progresso do paciente, repetidamente, durante a psicoterapia. Não é um instrumento teoricamente orientado, podendo ser aplicado a psicoterapias de diferentes fundamentações teóricas. Apresenta evidências de validade e consistência interna, em sua versão original. O objetivo geral deste trabalho foi traduzir e adaptar culturalmente o OQ-45 para o contexto da cultura brasileira. O processo consistiu de cinco estágios: tradução, síntese, back-translation ou tradução regressiva, revisão por especialistas e pré-teste. Teve como base duas versões: a original, em inglês e a portuguesa. Os resultados sugerem que o OQ-45 é um instrumento de fácil compreensão e aplicação, mesmo em pessoas com baixo grau de instrução escolar formal. Serão necessários estudos de validade e precisão da versão brasileira, comparando-se amostras clínicas com não-clínicas.

Abstract:
The Outcome Questionnaire-45 (OQ) reliably quantifies level of psychological functioning and change during treatment. The three subscales, however, are not well validated. Could alternative scales, based on personality dimensions or other groupings of psychological problems better explain patterns of response? In Study 1, the intended structure and four alternative models were compared using EFA and CFA in random thirds of a community clinic intake sample (N = 1,822). Oblique and bi-level models were compared. Preferred models were tested for stability in samples from later time points. In Study 2, the models were compared in a nonclinical sample (N = 589). Most bi-level models provided adequate fit per standards previously established for the Outcome Questionnaire-45. A seven-factor model of psychological problems provided better fit than any yet reported for this inventory.

Abstract:
Self-report questionnaires are economical instruments for routine outcome assessment. In this study, the performance of the German version of the Outcome Questionnaire-45 (OQ-45) and the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) was evaluated when applied in analysis of the outcome quality of psychiatric and psychotherapeutic interventions. Pre-post data from two inpatient samples (N=5711) and one outpatient sample (N=239) were analyzed. Critical differences (reliable change index) and cut-off points between functional and dysfunctional populations were calculated using the Jacobson and Truax method of calculating clinical significance. Overall, the results indicated that the BSI was more accurate than the OQ-45 in correctly classifying patients as clinical subjects. Nonetheless, even with the BSI, about 25% of inpatients with schizophrenia attained a score at admission below the clinical cut-off. Both questionnaires exhibited the highest sensitivity to psychopathology with patients with personality disorders. When considering the differences in the prescores, both questionnaires showed the same sensitivity to change. The advantage of using these self-report measures is observed primarily in assessing outpatient psychotherapy outcome. In an inpatient setting two main problems—namely, the low response rate and the scarce sensitivity to psychopathology with severely ill patients—limit the usability of self-report questionnaires.

Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the differential effect of outcome monitoring feedback to therapists and to patients on outcomes in cluster B, cluster C, and personality disorder not otherwise specified (PD-NOS) patients. Day treatment patients (n = 112) and inpatients (n = 94) were randomly assigned to a feedback to therapist (FbT), feedback to therapist and patient (FbTP), or no feedback (NFb) condition. Feedback was based on weekly administrations of the Outcome Questionnaire-45 (OQ-45). In cluster B and PD-NOS patients FbTP resulted in increased OQ-45 scores during the first 6 months of therapy for not on track (NOT) patients. In cluster C patients, no adverse effects of feedback were found. These results suggest that for certain personality disorder patient groups, providing feedback during treatment may not always be beneficial, although more research is needed to further assess these effects.

Abstract:
Few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of mental health treatments for the combat stress reactions of military service members treated in deployed locations. The present pilot investigation is the first report on the effectiveness of a Combat Stress Control (CSC) unit treatment for deployed service members. Thirty-eight United States military personnel (33 men and 5 women) completed a 2-day CSC unit program at Balad Air Base, Iraq. The program included individual and group treatments to reduce the symptoms of combat operational stress reactions and to improve coping strategies, stress management skills, and interpersonal relationships. Measures used included the Outcome Questionnaire-45 (OQ-45) and the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist-Military version (PCL-M). The study found significant decreases on the OQ-45 and the PCL-M. These results provide preliminary data to support the use of CSC units to treat combat operational stress reactions in the field.

Abstract:
Background. Motor and nonmotor symptoms negatively influence Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients’ quality of life. Mindfulness interventions have been a recent focus in PD. The present study explores effectiveness of a manualized group mindfulness intervention tailored for PD in improving both motor and neuropsychiatric deficits in PD.Methods. Fourteen PD patients completed an 8-week mindfulness intervention that included 6 sessions. The Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), Geriatric Anxiety Inventory, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, PD Cognitive Rating Scale, Unified PD Rating Scale, PD Quality of Life Questionnaire, and Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45) were administered before and after the intervention. Participants also completed the FFMQ-15 at each session. Gains at postassessment and at 6-month follow-up were compared to baseline using pairedt-tests and Wilcoxon nonparametric tests.Results. A significant increase in FFMQ-Observe subscale, a reduction in anxiety, depression, and OQ-45 symptom distress, an increase in PDCRS-Subcortical scores, and an improvement in postural instability, gait, and rigidity motor symptoms were observed at postassessment. Gains for the PDCRS were sustained at follow-up.Conclusion. The mindfulness intervention tailored for PD is associated with reduced anxiety and depression and improved cognitive and motor functioning. A randomised controlled trial using a large sample of PD patients is warranted.

A random sample of 220 counseling center client records at a large Midwestern university, was used to assess reliability and validity of the Outcome Questionnaire–45.2 (OQ–45.2). The center uses the OQ–5.2 at intake. Internal consistency coefficients for the three subscales and the total score were acceptable, with high coefficients for the total score and Symptom Distress subscale and moderate coefficients for the Interpersonal Relations and Social Role subscales. Correlations among clients' presenting concerns and OQ–5.2 scores were computed and lend strong support for the validity of the OQ–45.2 total score and the Symptom Distress subscale. Weaker support was found for the Interpersonal Relations and Social Role subscales.

Comparou-se o ajuste de diferentes modelos de medidas propostos ao OQ-45.2 através da Análise Fatorial Confirmatória e verificou-se os parâmetros dos itens e dos participantes por meio do Modelo de Resposta Gradual. 419 adultos responderam ao instrumento (32,18±14,3; 62,8%, mulheres). Os resultados demonstram a adequação da estrutura Bifactor composta por três fatores específicos (desconforto subjetivo, relações interpessoais e desempenho do papel social) e um fator geral (desajustamento global) quando comparados aos outros modelos: unifatorial e com três fatores correlacionados. Verificou-se a invariância da estrutura interna do OQ-45.2 ao avaliar homens e mulheres. Em relação às propriedades dos itens (dificuldade e ajustamento) foram obtidos parâmetros psicométricos apropriados para a avaliação de resultados psicoterapêuticos. Conclui-se que o OQ-45.2 é uma medida adequada para avaliação destas características na população brasileira.

Abstract:
The main aim of the present study concerns the analysis of the evolution of psychological distress during university counselling treatment, taking into account the initial mental health conditions of the students involved by means of standardized clinical measures. During a preliminary interview, we collected socio-demographic information, academic problems and health conditions of 110 university students who had requested psychological counselling. We applied the MMPI-2 questionnaire prior to the treatment, and we detected the evolution of distress by administering the OQ-45 scale at pre-treatment, post-treatment and 3-months follow-up. Results indicate that all OQ-45 dimensions register a statistically significative reduction during the counselling treatment. Moreover, the high correlations between the OQ-45 scale and MMPI-2 questionnaire underline the consistency of the evolution of OQ-45 scores starting from the valid initial mental health assessment carried out by the MMPI. In addition, we explored the predictive role of MMPI-2 dimensions on the OQ-45 scale: only the Psychopathic Deviation (PD) dimension appeared predictive of the positive evolution of the treatment. This is relevant considering a non-clinical sample of university students in which social maladjustment, self-alienation, and social alienation can represent a real high risk for academic success. In conclusion, data analysis shows the appropriateness of the combined use of MMPI-2 and OQ-45 questionnaires in psychological counselling in the academic setting to evaluate, firstly, the validity of the individual clinical profile and, consequently, the response to the treatment offered.

Abstract:
SummaryAims– The Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45.2; Lambertet al., 2004) was designed to measure important areas of functioning (symptoms, interpersonal problems and social role functioning) that are of central interest in mental health. The crosscultural validity of the OQ-45.2 in the Italian population has been examined by comparing the psychometric properties and equivalence in factor structure and normative scores of the Italian OQ with the original American version.Method– Data were collected at university (N=461), in community (N=61) and in three mental health care organisations (N=301).Results– Results showed that the psychometric properties of the Italian OQ were adequate and similar to the original instrument. The CFA supported the multidimentional construct system of the instrument. Furthermore, normative scores were different for the Italian and American samples and this resulted in different cutoff scores for estimating clinically significant change in the Italian population.Conclusions– The Italian version of the OQ-45.2 appears promising as a measure of general psychological distress, and it could be used to measure the psychotherapy outcome in routine clinical practice.Declaration of Interest:

Establecer las propiedades estructurales y psicométricas del OQ-45.2 e identificar la sensibilidad al cambio y diferencias según género. Método: se realizó en población clínica, participaron 214 consultantes (111 hombres y 103 mujeres), Instrumento: Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45.2). Resultados: El AFC mostró índices de bondad de ajuste bajos y valor de RMSEA de 0.071. Se recomendó realizar el AFE, y esta estructura incluyó 20 ítems y explicó el 58,8 % de la varianza total: preocupación, problemas del desempeño del rol social, insatisfacción global, alcohol/drogas, dificultades en las relaciones e insatisfacción en las relaciones afectivas. Para la escala original, los coeficientes se encontraron entre 0.52 y 0.92; no se presentaron diferencias según género en ninguno de los factores pero sí sensibilidad al cambio en la terapia en todas las dimensiones. Para la estructura encontrada a través del AFE con 20 ítems, los coeficientes se encontraron entre 0.47 y 0.75. Los índices de ajustes para esta nueva estructura fueron muy favorables (CFI=0,920, TLI=0,902 y NFI=0,790) y valor de RMSEA de 0.046. Se reportaron diferencias con relación al género en las dimensiones Insatisfacción global (más elevadas en mujeres) y Alcohol/droga (puntuaciones más elevadas en hombre). La prueba reportó sensibilidad al cambio en la escala original en Estrés, Desempeño y Relaciones interpersonales negativas, y en la escala abreviada en Preocupación, Problemas del rol social e Insatisfacción en las relaciones afectivas. Conclusiones: el OQ 45.2 no presentó una estructura adecuada a través del AFC. El AFE reportó 6 factores y 20 ítems, adecuados índices de ajustes, pero no todos los factores con buen nivel de confiabilidad.

Abstract:
The Outcome Questionnaire is a 45-item inventory of client-reported symptoms and distress, used to track therapeutic change on a session-by-session basis. Data collected with the cooperation of a managed care provider were analyzed to note ethnic differences on the questionnaire. 1552 first session questionnaires were selected and mean total and subscale scores were analyzed using analysis-of-variance procedures for differences by ethnicity. No significant differences were found; however, significant ethnic differences on some items were noted, and these are reported with ethnic trends in clients' problems, diagnoses, and therapists' ratings on Global Assessment of Functioning. These findings were contrasted with those of other studies reporting ethnic differences on various measures such as IQ and personality assessment.

AbstractWe describe the internal structure of the Symptom Assessment-45 Questionnaire (SA-45; Davison et al., 1997) in a sample of non-clinical Spanish subjects. The scale was developed for treatment outcome assessment in psychiatric settings; however, many studies have examined its psychometric properties in non-clinical populations. The internal structure of these studies usually replicates the dimensionality proposed in the original study closely. In this work, the scale was administered to a sample of 823 participants. In order to analyse the dimensionality of the instrument in a non-clinical population, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses using polychoric correlations were carried out. The results obtained, are similar to those obtained for the original model and replicated in later studies, but there are important nuances that should be taken into account in defining a measurement model for the sample used. These data confirm the need for further research in a non-clinical population. ResumenSe describe la estructura interna del Symptom Assess­ment-45 Questionnaire (SA-45; Davison et al., 1997) en una muestra española no clínica. La escala, fue desarro­llada para la evaluación de los tratamientos en entornos psiquiátricos. Sin embargo, muchos estudios han exami­nado sus propiedades psicométricas en población no clí­nica. La estructura interna en estos estudios, usualmente replica la dimensionalidad propuesta en el estudio origi­nal. En este trabajo, la escala fue administrada a una mues­tra de 358 participantes. Para analizar su dimensionalidad en población no clínica, se usó Análisis Factorial Explora­torio y Confirmatorio factorizando la matriz de correlacio­nes policóricas. Los resultados obtenidos, son similares a los del modelo original y replicados en algunos estudios, sin embargo, hay importantes matices que deben ser teni­dos en cuenta para definir el modelo en la muestra usada. Los resultados, confirman la necesidad de más investiga­ción en población no clínica

Abstract. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and psychometric properties of the German version of the Outcome Questionnaire (Ergebnisfragebogen; EB-45) in people with severe mental illness (N = 294). Reliability and sensitivity to change were assessed. Convergent validity was examined through correlations with the measures Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS-D) and Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF), and predictive validity through correlation with length of inpatient stay. The EB-45 showed good reliability and sensitivity to change, as well as good internal consistency for the total score and the subscale “symptom distress.” The EB-45 was found to be acceptable and feasible for use within inpatient psychiatric settings. Also predictive validity was good. However, psychometric properties of the subscales “interpersonal relations” and “social role” were equivocal. Thus, interpreting subscale scores only is not advisable. Also low convergent validity is a concern. Taken together, the EB-45 can be recommended for outcome assessment in a wide range of mental health service settings including inpatient psychiatric services. However, treatment planning and evaluation of effectiveness of services for people with severe mental illness should not be based on EB-45 data alone.

Abstract:
This study is a replication of Rousmaniere et al., in which no differences in client outcome between supervisors were found and few differences in client outcome due to either degree level or experience as a supervisor were found. Hierarchical linear modeling was used to determine variance estimates in client outcome accounted for by supervisors. The longitudinal archival data set consisted of 3,030 clients, 80 therapists, and 39 supervisors at a University Counseling Center in the Rocky Mountains. Therapists practiced psychodynamic, strategic, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused, and family systems approaches. Average improvement of clients was 7.91 points across supervisors using the Outcome Questionnaire-45.2 (OQ-45.2). Consistent with Rousmaniere et al., the amount of variance in client outcome attributable to clinical supervision was less than 1%. Implications indicate supervision may be enhanced by increased focus on aiding professional development of supervisees and emphasized future clarification surrounding the role of improvement of client welfare by supervisors.

Abstract:
Rationale, aims and objective: Introducing low intensive guided self-help interventions may offer an opportunity to decrease the high burden of mental disorders while maintaining the affordability of mental healthcare services. This study aimed to evaluate the pre- post-test effects of a low-intensive guided self-help intervention after implementation in GP practices Methods: The intervention aimed to improve coping mechanisms in order to improve mental health. It consisted of a self-help manual with therapeutic support delivered over a maximum of 8 treatment sessions. During a 36 month period, data on two outcome parameters: level of general functioning (OQ-45) and coping style (UCL), were collected from 1829 patients with an array of mental health symptoms who were referred by their GP. Measurements took place at treatment onset, following three sessions and then at treatment termination. Results: Complete results were available for 559 (31%) of the 1829 patients. No indications for an attrition bias were found. The completers analysis showed that the results regarding the OQ- and UCL-outcomes over time were statistically significant: symptom severity dropped decidedly, general functioning sharply improved and coping style was more effective than at baseline. The overall within effect size for decrease in psychological symptoms was d=0.85. Approximately 45% of the patients were either recovered or clinically improved. Conclusion: The treatment appeared to be effective in routine care while requiring considerably less therapist time than the commonly used high intensive treatments. A randomized controlled trial is now required to determine the effectiveness.

Abstract:
This article reports the findings of an outcome study done at ALONGSIDE, a counseling-focused retreat center that offers three-week intensive outpatient programs for Christian leaders, the majority of whom are missionaries. Repeated measures research utilized the Outcome Questionnaire - 45.2 (OQ-45.2) to explore whether or not clients participating in the three-week intensive outpatient program realized significant clinical progress and whether or not therapeutic gains were retained after the conclusion of the program. Missionaries and other Christian leaders took the inventory online a month before coming to ALONGSIDE, upon arrival, at the end of the three-week program, and three months after the program concluded. The results indicated that a month of time before arrival did not bring about a significant reduction in symptomatology among the 191 subjects, but three weeks of ALONGSIDE's intensive outpatient program resulted in significant clinical improvement which remained when the inventory was taken again three months post-program. This suggests that in a fairly short period of time, an intensive outpatient program consisting of psycho-education, group psychotherapy, and individual and/or marital counseling within a milieu of intentional Christian community can be a highly effective model for promoting enduring psychological healing.

Abstract:
Rationale, aims and objectives: Results from prediction studies are often of limited value because potential predictors are measured with instruments that are not routinely used, the results are presented in terms that are difficult to translate to individual patients and the relations between predictors and outcome are complex. These problems were faced by deriving decision trees for classification using information routinely accessed in generalized mental healthcare for intake purposes and treatment monitoring.Method: Positive treatment outcome was defined as symptom improvement, measured with the symptom distress scale of the Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45.2). The analysis process consisted of 3 phases, derivation of a possible decision tree, selection of the best 10 trees and assessment of classification performance after integration of these 10 trees. This analysis was performed 3 times, for all patients without any missing data, for the full set of patients and for the patients in which intermediate outcome data were available.Results: The prediction performance of the 3 integrated classifiers varied from poor (AUC 0.68) in the complete sample including patients with missing variables, to good (AUC 0.83) including early response as predictor. Complex interactions between variables were found.Conclusion: The present study shows the need for registration of clinical and sociodemographic variables and outcome monitoring in a systematic way to prevent missing variables and automated decision support systems to use complex interactions between variables for outcome prediction.

Abstract:
The outcome of decompression for long-standing symptoms of nerve entrapments in the proximal forearm was investigated in a retrospective study of 205 patients using a self-assessment questionnaire, 45 months after the operation. The questionnaire consisted of visual analogue scale recordings of pre- and postoperative pain during rest and activity, questions about remaining symptoms and appreciation of the result and the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand form (DASH). Altogether, 59% of the patients were satisfied, 58% considered themselves improved, and 3% as being entirely relieved of all symptoms. Pain decreased significantly (). There was a significant correlation between preoperative duration and patient perceived post-operative pain. Preoperative pain was a chief complaint, and pain reduction appears to be the principal gain of the operation. Although the majority of the patients benefited from the operation, a substantial proportion was not satisfied. There is apparently room for improvement of the diagnostic and surgical methods applied in this study.

Zusammenfassung.Theoretischer Hintergrund: Routinemäßige Qualitätssicherung psychotherapeutischer Versorgung erfordert Instrumente zur unaufwendigen, aber zuverlässigen Erfassung von Behandlungsergebnissen. Fragestellung: Ziel der Studie ist eine deutsche Adaptation (EB-45) des in den USA bewährten Outcome Questionnaire 45.2. Methode: Der EB-45 wurde von einer nicht-klinischen Stichprobe (n =232) im Abstand von 2 Wochen zweimal bearbeitet. Zur Konstruktvalidierung wurden parallel die Symptom Checklist 90, das Inventar Interpersoneller Probleme sowie die Fragebogen zur sozialen Integration und zur Lebenszufriedenheit vorgelegt. Ergebnisse: Für die interne Konsistenz wurden Werte von .59 bis .93 und für die Retest-Reliabilitäten von .71 bis .87 geschätzt. Die Korrelationen mit den zur Validierung hinzugezogenen Instrumenten lagen zwischen .45 und .76. Schlußfolgerungen: Die Standardisierung rechtfertigt es, den EB-45 in der Evaluation und Qualitätssicherung einzusetzen; die Beschränkungen der Stichprobe ermahnen jedoch zur Vorsicht.

Abstract:
Background: Fibromyalgia is a chronic clinical condition characterized by pain and other associated symptoms that have a negative impact on the quality of life of the affected person. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a core stability training physiotherapy program compared to an acupuncture treatment on quality of life, pain, joint stiffness, difficulty to work and depression of women with fibromyalgia. Methods: This was a single-blind, randomized clinical controlled trial. Women with fibromyalgia were randomized to a core stability physiotherapy program group (n = 45), an acupuncture treatment group (n = 45) and a control group (n = 45) for 13 weeks. Measurements were taken at baseline (week 0), post-intervention (week 6) and at follow-up (week 13). The primary outcome measure was quality of life (Spanish Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire). The secondary outcome measures were pain, joint stiffness, difficulty to work and depression (Visual Analogue Scale). Results: In total, 103 participants completed the study. The results, from a descriptive perspective, showed improvements in all the outcome measures in both intervention groups (physiotherapy and acupuncture) at weeks 6 and 13 in relation to week 0 and in comparison to the control group. Only the difficulty to work measure in the acupuncture group showed a slight decrease at week 13. In particular, mean (±SD) Spanish Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire score at 6 weeks was 62.89 ± 16.91 for the physiotherapy group, 62.5 ± 18.09 for the acupuncture group and 67.45 ± 17.07 for the control group. However, these improvements were not statistically significant. Conclusion: Core stability-based physiotherapy and acupuncture showed non-significant improvements in quality of life, pain, joint stiffness, difficulty to work and depression in women with fibromyalgia.

Objective: This study investigated the effectiveness of a core stability training physiotherapy programme vs. acupuncture for the management of balance and functional capacity impairments of women with Fibromyalgia. Design: Single-blind randomized controlled trial. Setting: Outpatients setting. Subjects: Women with Fibromyalgia and balance impairment. Interventions: Participants were randomized to a core stability physiotherapy programme group ( n = 45), acupuncture treatment group ( n = 45) and control group ( n = 45) for 13 weeks. Main Measures: Measures were taken at baseline (week 0), postintervention (week 6) and follow-up (week 13). The primary outcome measures were static balance (posturography) and dynamic balance and functional mobility (Berg Balance Scale, timed up and go test and 10-m walk). The secondary outcome measure was functional capacity (Fibromyalgia Health Assessment Questionnaire and the physical function item from the Spanish Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire). Results: In all, 103 participants completed the study. The results showed statistically significant improvements in the acupuncture and physiotherapy groups vs. the control group at week 6 regarding Berg Balance Scale ( P = 0.00, both groups), timed up and go test ( P = 0.00 and P = 0.01, respectively) and 10-m walk test at comfortable speed ( P = 0.02 and P = 0.03, respectively). The 10-m walk test at maximum speed showed significance when comparing the physiotherapy and control group ( P = 0.03). However, no significant differences were found between the physiotherapy and the acupuncture groups. In relation to functional capacity, the improvements achieved after the treatments were not statistically significant. Conclusion: Core stability-based physiotherapy and acupuncture improve dynamic balance and postural control in women with Fibromyalgia.

Objectives: The study aimed to: (1) adopt, modify and develop a questionnaire suitable for data collection on prostate cancer in the female population, (2) translate the questionnaire into the Akan language, and (3) conduct a validity and reliability analysis on the Akan questionnaire. Methods: An English version questionnaire was developed and adequately translated into an Akan version according to the forward and backward translation protocols. The Akan questionnaire went through translator-approval and certification. Validity and reliability analysis were performed on the questionnaire. Statistical analysis for face validity involved the determination of average scores while content validity involved the determination of the content validity index. Regarding reliability analysis, Cronbach’s alpha was calculated for the test and retest periods of study. Results: A forty-five (45) membered Akan questionnaire was successfully developed and certified. The average scores for all parameters employed in the face validation were greater than 4. The content validity index was within the range of 0.90 - 0.99 while the Cronbach’s alpha for both test periods was within the range of 0.7808 - 0.9209. Conclusion: The Akan questionnaire had acceptable validity and reliability outcome. Therefore, the questionnaire was considered appropriate for assessing knowledge, awareness, and perception of Ghanaian women of prostate cancer.

Abstract:
Background Cancer patients can experience a number of reproductive complications as a result of cancer treatment and may benefit from reproductive preventative health strategies. A Reproductive Survivorship Patient Reported Outcome Measure (RS-PROM) is not currently available but could assist patients address reproductive concerns. Purpose To develop and test the acceptability, feasibility and appropriateness of a RS-PROM tool to be used to assess reproductive needs of cancer survivors aged 18–45 years. Methods We reviewed the outcomes of a recently published audit of reproductive care provided in our cancer survivorship clinic to identify gaps in current service provided and used this along with available validated reproductive measures, to develop this pilot RS-PROM. Survivors aged 18–45 years either attending the SCH survivorship clinic over a 1-year period or participants on the Australasian Oncofertility Registry (AOFR) who had agreed to be contacted for future research studies were asked to complete the RS-PROM and a questionnaire on the acceptability, feasibility and appropriateness of content included. Results One-hundred and fifty patients participated (61.3% females). Median age at cancer diagnosis was 24.5 years (range: 2–45 years). Eighty percent of participants reported the length of the RS-PROM was “just right”, 92% agreed they would not mind completing the RS-PROM and 92.7% were willing to answer all questions, with 97% agreeing that the RS-PROM would be an important tool in addressing difficult sexual/reproductive topics concerning with healthcare professionals. Conclusion The large majority of survivors participating in our pilot study found the RS-PROM to be an acceptable, feasible and useful tool to assist discussions of their sexual and reproductive health concerns and experiences with their clinical team.
