Objective[edit | edit source]
The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a patient completed questionnaire with 13 items assessing pain level and extent of difficulty with ADLs requiring the use of the upper extremities. The pain subscale has 5-items and the Disability subscale has 8-items.
The original version[1] was published in 1991 and has its items scored on the Visual analogue scale while the second version scores its items on the Numerical rating scale(NRS)
SPADI has been translated in many languages including Spanish, Greek, Dutch, Hindi, Thai and Italian each with its own validity and reliability.
