The goal of this study was to determine the minimal change in pain score recognized by patients as meaningful known as minimal clinically important difference (mcid). Mean age = 47.2 years; Minimum clinically important improvement and patient acceptable symptom state in pain and function in rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, chronic back pain, hand osteoarthritis, and hip and knee osteoarthritis:
换一句话说,量表得分要改变多少才具有临床意义呢? 为解决这个问题, 最小临床重要性差值 (minimal clinical important difference, mcid) 这个概念应运而生,这也是目前很多小伙伴在投稿时,审稿专家常提出的问题。 There is currently no agreement on an appropriate mcid in chronic pain and little is known about which contextual factors cause variation. 100 mm visual analogue scale).
Patients with a high baseline level of pain on the nrs (score of >7 cm), who experienced either a slight improvement or a higher level of response, had absolute raw and percent changes greater that did patients in the lower. We identified and systematically reviewed empirical studies of mcid in acute pain. We searched pubmed, embase, and cochrane library. Results from a prospective multinational study.
