Validation of the Brazilian version of WHODAS 2.0 for individuals with temporomandibular disorders

Validação da versão brasileira do WHODAS 2.0 para indivíduos com disfunção temporomandibular

Validación de la versión brasileña del WHODAS 2.0 para personas con trastornos temporomandibulares

ABSTRACT

This study aims to validate the Brazilian version of World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) for individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD), assessing its psychometric properties, including internal consistency, construct validity, and discriminant validity. In total, 100 female and male patients with TMD were included. Participants were assessed based on the Research Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (RDC/TMD). For statistical analyses, McDonald’s omega coefficient was used to assess internal consistency; Spearman correlation, for construct validity; Kruskal-Wallis test and multiple comparisons (Dunn method), for discriminant validity. The results of internal consistency for the WHODAS 2.0 domains ranged from 0.70 to 0.94. The WHODAS 2.0 showed a moderate and significant correlation with the disability points of the RDC/TMD and with the WHOQOL-BREF domains. In the discriminant validity, significant differences were found in all domains of WHODAS 2.0 between grade 0 and grade III, between grade I and grade III, and between grade II and grade III from the chronic pain grading of the RDC/TMD. The results demonstrate that the instrument is reliable and valid for measuring the functioning of individuals with TMD, presenting acceptable psychometric properties for internal consistency, as well as for construct validity and discriminant validity.

RESUMO

Este estudo metodológico teve como objetivo validar a versão brasileira do World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) para indivíduos com desordem temporomandibular (DTM), avaliando suas propriedades psicométricas, incluindo consistência interna, validade de construto e validade discriminante. Um total de 100 pacientes do sexo feminino e masculino com DTM participaram do estudo e foram avaliados com base no Research Diagnostic Criteria for TMD (RDC/TMD). Para as análises estatísticas, o coeficiente ômega de McDonald foi usado para avaliar a consistência interna, a correlação de Spearman para a validade de construto, o teste de Kruskal-Wallis e comparações múltiplas (método de Dunn) para a validade discriminante. Os resultados de consistência interna para os domínios do WHODAS 2.0 variaram de 0,70 a 0,94. O WHODAS 2.0 apresentou correlação moderada e significativa com os pontos de incapacidade do RDC/TMD e com os domínios do WHOQOL-bref. Na validade discriminante, foram encontradas diferenças significativas em todos os domínios do WHODAS 2.0 entre os graus 0 e III, entre os graus I e III, e entre os graus II e III dos graus de dor crônica do RDC/TMD. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que o WHODAS 2.0 é um instrumento confiável e válido para mensurar a funcionalidade em indivíduos com DTM, apresentando propriedades psicométricas aceitáveis para consistência interna, bem como para validade de construto e validade discriminante.

INTRODUCTION

Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a term that encompasses a series of alterations that can affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles, and associated structures11. Nassif NJ, Al-Salleeh F, Al-Admawi M. The prevalence and treatment needs of symptoms and signs of temporomandibular disorders among young adult males. J Oral Rehabil. 2003;30(9):944-50. doi: 10.1046/j.1365-2842.2003.01143.x.
https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-2842.2003...
. They are a major public health problem since they are one of the main sources of chronic orofacial pain that interferes with daily activities22. Almoznino G, Zini A, Zakuto A, Sharav Y, Haviv Y, Avraham H, et al. Oral health-related quality of life in patients with temporomandibular disorders. J Oral Facial Pain Headache. 2015;29(3):231-41. doi: 10.11607/ofph.1413.
https://doi.org/10.11607/ofph.1413...
.

Individuals affected by TMD have psychological discomfort, physical disability, and functional limitations of the orofacial system, causing great negative effect on daily activities, affecting their personal and professional lives22. Almoznino G, Zini A, Zakuto A, Sharav Y, Haviv Y, Avraham H, et al. Oral health-related quality of life in patients with temporomandibular disorders. J Oral Facial Pain Headache. 2015;29(3):231-41. doi: 10.11607/ofph.1413.
https://doi.org/10.11607/ofph.1413...
. Epidemiological studies indicate that more than 25% of the general population has TMD33. McNeely ML, Armijo Olivo A, Magee DJ. A systematic review of the effectiveness of physical therapy interventions for temporomandibular disorders. Phys Ther. 2006;86(5):710-25. doi: 10.1093/ptj/86.5.710.
https://doi.org/10.1093/ptj/86.5.710...
and those aged 20-45 years present the highest incidence, with women being five times more affected than men44. Maluf SA, Moreno BGD, Alfredo PP, Marques AP, Rodrigues G. Exercícios terapêuticos nas desordens temporomandibulares: uma revisão de literatura. Fisioter Pesqui. 2008;15(4):408-15. doi: 10.1590/S1809-29502008000400016.
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1809-2950200800...
.

Some instruments have already been used to assess the functioning of this population, such as the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD)55. Rodrigues MF, Rodrigues ML, Bueno KS, Aroca JP, Camilotti V, Busato MCA, et al.

, the Mandibular Function Impairment Questionnaire (MFIQ)66. Calixtre LB, Oliveira AB, de Sena Rosa LR, Armijo Olivo S, Visscher CM, Alburquerque-Sendín F.

https://doi.org/10.1111/joor.12733...
, and the Craniofacial Pain and Disability Inventory (CF-PDI)77. Garrigós-Pedrón M, La Touche R, Navarro-Desentre P, Gracia-Naya M, Segura-Ortí E. Effects of a physical therapy protocol in patients with chronic migraine and temporomandibular disorders: a randomized, single-blinded, clinical trial.

https://doi.org/10.11607/ofph.1912...
.

Although used for the assessment of functioning of TMD individuals, those instruments do not consider biopsychosocial aspects, as suggested by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) developed by the World Health Organization (WHO)88. Castro SS, Leite CF, Baldin JE, Accioly MF. Validation of the Brazilian version of WHODAS 2.0 in patients on hemodialysis therapy. Fisioter Mov. 2018;31:e003130. doi: 10.1590/1980-5918.031.ao30.
https://doi.org/10.1590/1980-5918.031.ao...
. In this context, the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) would greatly contribute for both clinical and scientific purposes, since it presents a favorable applicability and provides a faster functioning diagnosis, allowing interventions focused on clinical symptoms, and on the patient’s functioning improvement99. Castro SS, Leite CF. Translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule - WHODAS 2.0. Fisioter Pesqui. 2017;24(4):385-91. doi: 10.1590/1809-2950/17118724042017.
https://doi.org/10.1590/1809-2950/171187...
. This study evaluates psychometric properties-including internal consistency, construct validity, and discriminant validity-of the Brazilian version of the WHODAS 2.0 for its use in TMD individuals. WHODAS 2.0 is expected to be a valid and reliable instrument for assessing functioning in individuals with TMD.

METHODOLOGY

Participants

The inclusion criteria were: individuals of both sexes, aged 18 years or older, diagnosed with TMD according to the RDC/TMD1010. Dworkin SF, LeResche L. Research diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders: review, criteria, examinations and specifications, critique. J Craniomandib Disord. 1992;6(4):301-55.. Participants who were not diagnosed with TMD by the RDC/TMD or who did not complete the questionnaires were excluded from the study. The sample size consisted of 100 participants1111. Terwee CB, Bot SDM, de Boer MR, van der Windt DAWM, Knol DL, Dekker J, et al. Quality criteria were proposed for measurement properties of health status questionnaires. J Clin Epidemiol. 2007;60(1):34-42. doi: 10.1016/j.jclinepi.2006.03.012.
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclinepi.2006....
. They were recruited from the Prosthesis and Occlusion Clinic from School of Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Nursing, UFC.

Outcome measures

The psychometric properties evaluated were: internal consistency, construct validity, and discriminant validity. Sociodemographic, clinical, functioning, and quality of life (QoL) characteristics of the participants were also evaluated.

Internal consistency is defined as the degree of intercorrelation between the items within an instrument1111. Terwee CB, Bot SDM, de Boer MR, van der Windt DAWM, Knol DL, Dekker J, et al. Quality criteria were proposed for measurement properties of health status questionnaires. J Clin Epidemiol. 2007;60(1):34-42. doi: 10.1016/j.jclinepi.2006.03.012.
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclinepi.2006....
.

Construct validity is defined as the degree to which the scores of an instrument are consistent with a previously defined hypothesis. It can be verified by evaluating the interrelationships of the instrument in comparison to other instruments, assuming that the comparator instrument is a reliable measure of the construct target1212. Mokkink LB, Terwee CB, Patrick DL, Alonso J, Stratford PW, Knol DL, et al. COSMIN checklist manual. Amsterdam: EMGO Institute for Health and Care Research; 2012.. To evaluate construct validity, the total value and the WHODAS 2.0 domains were correlated with the RDC/TMD AXIS II measures-the characteristic pain intensity (CPI) and pain-related disability (PRD)-and the total score and domains of the World Health Organization Quality of Life instrument (WHOQOL-BREF).

Discriminant validity ensures that the instrument can detect differences between individuals in the group, when these contrasts occur1313. McDowell I. Measuring health: a guide to rating scales and questionnaires. Oxford: Oxford University Press; 2009.. The RDC/TMD Grade Chronic Pain Scale (GCPS) were used to separate the groups and to verify the discriminating validity of WHODAS 2.0.

Instruments

Participants were evaluated according to abbreviated version of the WHOQOL-BREF, RDC/TMD (CPI and PRD) and WHODAS 2.0.

The WHODAS 2.0 is a generic functioning assessment questionnaire1414. Castro S, Leite C, editors. Avaliação de saúde e deficiência: manual do WHO Disability Assessment Schedule WHODAS 2.0. Osterbrock C, Santos MT, Adery R, translators. Uberaba: Universidade Federal do Triângulo Mineiro; 2015. composed of 36 questions encompassing six life domains: Cognition (6 items), Mobility (5 items), Self-care (4 items); Getting along (5 items), Life activities (8 items), and Participation (8 items). Each question has five alternatives as possible answers, ranging from 1 (no difficulty) to 5 (extreme difficulty or cannot do). The domains and general scores are computed, ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores reflecting worse levels of functioning1515. Üstün TB, Kostanjsek N, Chatterji S, Rehm J, editors. Measuring health and disability: manual for WHO Disability Assessment Schedule WHODAS 2.0. Geneva: World Health Organization; 2010.),(1616. Üstün TB, Chatterji S, Kostanjsek N, Rehm J, Kennedy C, Epping-Jordan J, et al. Developing the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0. Bull World Health Organ. 2010;88(11):815-23. doi: 10.2471/BLT.09.067231.
https://doi.org/10.2471/BLT.09.067231...
.

To validate the WHODAS 2.0 for TMD individuals, the participants were evaluated using the Brazilian version of the RDC/TMD Axis II; which is characterized by a biaxial approach, allowing a reliable measurement of the physical findings in Axis I and the assessment of psychosocial status in Axis II. The Axis II consisted of 31 items, divided into socio-demographic, socio economic, psychological (depression subscales and nonspecific physical symptoms-pain items included, and pain items excluded), psychosocial (graded chronic pain scale-pain intensity and disability); patient-related signs and symptoms; and the limitation scale on mandibular function (The GCPS classifies pain-related impairment based on five degrees of severity (no pain=0, low=I, II; high=III, IV)1717. Lucena LBS, Kosminsky M, Costa LJ, Góes PSA. Validation of the Portuguese version of the RDC/TMD Axis II questionnaire. Braz Oral Res. 2006;20(4):312-7. doi: 10.1590/S1806-83242006000400006.
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1806-8324200600...
.

The WHOQOL-BREF is an abbreviated version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL-100) instrument and has 26 items covering four QoL domains: physical (7 items), psychological (6 items), social (3 items), and environmental (8 items), with two others general questions regarding health and QoL. These scores are represented along a linear scale from 0 to 100, in which a higher score reflects a better QoL. The WHOQOL-BREF has been previously translated into and validated for the Brazilian Portuguese1818. Fleck MPA, Louzada S, Xavier M, Chachamovich E, Vieira G, Santos L, et al.

.

Statistical methods

All statistical analyses are described below and were conducted using the program SPSS 22.0, with 5% statistical significance level. To describe sociodemographic, clinical, functioning, and QoL characteristics of the study participants, descriptive measures were used. The normality of the data was analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.

For the analysis of internal consistency, the McDonald’s omega coefficient was used; and the internal consistency was positively classified when McDonald’s ω was between 0.70 and 0.951919. Revelle W, Zinbarg RE. Coefficients Alpha, Beta, Omega, and the glb: comments on sijtsma. Psychometrika. 2009;74:145. doi: 10.1007/S11336-008-9102-Z.

European Health Psychologist. 2014;16(2):56-69.. Spearman’s correlation test between the WHODAS 2.0-domains and total scores-and the RDC/TMD and the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaires were used to assess the construct validity. The correlations were considered strong when the value was ≥0.7, moderate when it was 0.4 to 0.7, and weak when it was <0.42121. Cohen J. Statistical power analysis for the behavioural sciences. New York: Lawrence Earlbaum Associates; 1988.. The discriminant validity was assessed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and multiple comparisons (Dunn’s method) to determine which groups of GCPS were different2222. Pösl M, Cieza A, Stucki G. Psychometric properties of the WHODASII in rehabilitation patients. Qual Life Res. 2007;16(9):1521-31. doi: 10.1007/s11136-007-9259-4.

.

RESULTS

A total 115 volunteers were evaluated according to the RDC/TMD and after the exclusion criteria, only 100 were diagnosed with TMD and were considered for analysis (Figure 1). Table 1 shows sociodemographic, clinical, functioning, and QoL characteristics.

DISCUSSION

Our study aimed to prove that WHODAS 2.0 is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring the functioning of patients with TMD, with acceptable psychometric properties.

Internal consistency

The coefficients for all domains and the overall score were consistent with the international2222. Pösl M, Cieza A, Stucki G. Psychometric properties of the WHODASII in rehabilitation patients. Qual Life Res. 2007;16(9):1521-31. doi: 10.1007/s11136-007-9259-4.

https://doi.org/10.1590/1809-2950/180362...
. The values we found meet the condition of acceptable reliability for research purposes.

Construct validity

The results of this study demonstrate moderate and positive correlations of the PRD of the RDC/TMD with almost all domains of WHODAS 2.0, except for the domains of Cognition and Self-care.

PRD are calculated based on answers to four RDC/TMD questions, considering the last six months. On the other hand, WHODAS evaluates the last 30 days, thus, causing the instruments to differ in relation to the evaluated period. This may be the reason for the moderate correlation between the instruments.

The WHOQOL-BREF domains also showed a moderate and significant correlation with the WHODAS 2.0. The Physical domain of WHOQOL-BREF showed correlation with all domains of the instrument in the process of validation, as already published88. Castro SS, Leite CF, Baldin JE, Accioly MF. Validation of the Brazilian version of WHODAS 2.0 in patients on hemodialysis therapy. Fisioter Mov. 2018;31:e003130. doi: 10.1590/1980-5918.031.ao30.
https://doi.org/10.1590/1980-5918.031.ao...
.

The Psychological domain of the WHOQOL-BREF showed a moderate correlation with the Cognition domain of WHODAS 2.0, in agreement with another study2424. Sousa AJS, Silva MC, Barreto MCA, Nunes BP, Coutinho BD, Castro SS. Propriedades psicométricas do WHODAS para uso em pessoas com chikungunya no Brasil. Fisioter Pesqui. 2019;26(4):419-26. doi: 10.1590/1809-2950/18036226042019.
https://doi.org/10.1590/1809-2950/180362...
, as well as the Social domain presented correlation with the Participation domain of WHODAS 2.0. This can be explained by the fact that the instruments evaluate close and related constructs.

Discriminant validity

The RDC/TMD GCPS were used to verify the discriminating validity of the WHODAS 2.0. The instrument was able to consistently discriminate patients with low disability and those with high disability. Significant differences were found in all WHODAS 2.0 domains between grade 0 and grade III, between grade I and grade III, and between grade II and grade III. Most comparisons were significant.

The importance of an instrument with good discriminating validity is the ability to categorize the subjects. In the case of the WHODAS 2.0, its ability to show the different levels of functioning for the same group can assist in organizing the work flow for these individuals, highlighting the priority of those who have a greater functional commitment, and improving the quality of the services provided.

Limitations

The mains limitation of our is the lack of homogeneity of the population in relation to the level of pain-related impairment, since individuals with both high intensity (Grade III or IV) and low intensity (Grade I or II) were included, which directly interferes with the functioning profile of this population.

CONCLUSION

The WHODAS 2.0 is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring the functioning of TMD patients, since it presents acceptable psychometric properties for internal consistency, as well as for construct validity and discriminant validity.
