Brazilian version of the OSTRC Questionnaire on health problems (OSTRC-BR): translation, cross-cultural adaptation and measurement properties.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center - Questionnaire on Health Problems (OSTRC-QHP) has been shown to be a valid and reliable questionnaire for monitoring athletes with acute, overuse, and illness problems.

Objectives

To translate and cross-culturally adapt the OSTRC-QHP into Brazilian-Portuguese (OSTRC-BR), and investigate the measurement properties of this version.

Methods

The original (Norwegian) questionnaire was translated and culturally adapted following existing guidelines. Measurement properties of the OSTRC-BR were investigated in 134 athletes followed for 13 weeks. Reliability was analyzed via internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Responsiveness was assessed by effect size (ES) estimations, correlation of the OSTRC-BR severity score
