Hi All,
I have a basic question, which I was wondering if someone could answer:
Does anyone use the Vernon / Mior neck pain disability index ?
I note that , at the top of this disability scale it reads:
" above 34 / 50 = complete disability "
On a related note, at the top of the Oswestry disability back pain index, it reads:
81% - 100% : These patients are either bed-bound or exaggerating their symptoms.
My question is: all things being equal, should the Vernon / Mior state the same: i.e. " complete disability or exaggerating symptoms ?"
Considering the Vernon is a modification of the Oswestry , I would think the above applies. But I'm not sure.
