چکیده
This study was carried out to assess the validity of the SPADI, (Shoulder pain and Disability Index), a self assessment of shoulder pain and disability in community based patients.The authors gave a fair introduction on the development of the SPADI and briefly critiqued the 2 studies that initially supported the validity of the subjective outcome measure. I note only moderate test-retest reliability was reported in the initial study (ICC = 0.65) which is inadequate for even group comparison. This was not discussed.
