| Résumé : | Study design Retrospective Diagnostic Cohort Study. Level of evidence Level 3b. Objectives To examine the concurrent and predictive validity of a novel clinical assessment tool, the Functional Lumbar Index (FLI). Background Lumbar surgeries have increased exponentially in the past decade, adding to healthcare costs without improving outcomes. Limitations in clinicians? abilities to identify those individuals who are most likely to benefit from surgery may be enhanced with an effective physical assessment tool. Methods The FLI was assessed on 291 individuals (179 conservative and 113 pre-surgical) seeking care for low-back pain (LBP) over a 2.5-year period. The FLI consists of several physical performance tests (PPT) with a novel criterion-based scoring system. Pearson correlations and Poisson regression analysis were used to establish concurrent and predictive validity at alpha = 0.05. Results The subscale FLI components showed good to excellent inter-rater reliability with intraclass correlation coefficient values as follows: front plank = .993, right side plank = .824, left side plank .861, Sorensen = 0.836, overhead squat = 0.937. A statistically significant, moderate negative correlation was observed between FLI and modified Oswestry Disability Index (r = ?0.540, p |
