文摘
To determine whether generic measures of disability, depression and physical activity are able to differentiate participants with and without pain.

Materials and methods

504 adults aged ≥60 years old recruited at 18 primary care centers were assessed for: pain (NRS), disability (WHODAS), performance (SPPB), depressive symptoms (GDS) and physical activity (RAPA).

Results

376 (74.6%) participants reported pain; pain sites most commonly reported were: low back (54.6%), knee (50.8%), shoulder (29.5%), hip (27.9%) and neck (24.7%). Pain was associated with increased disability, depression and decreased physical activity.

Conclusions

Generic instruments were able to capture pain associated changes.
