FIQ

Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire(English)

  • developed in the late 1980s to assess the total spectrum of problems related to fibromyalgia and associated responses to therapy. Coveres 3 domains: function, overall impact, and symptoms. The function domain contains 10 physical functioning items related to the ability to perform large muscle tasks, including the ability to do shopping, do laundry, prepare meals, wash dishes by hand, vacuum a rug, make beds, walk several blocks, visit friends or relatives, do yard work, and drive a car. The overall impact domain contains 2 items asking about the number of days individuals felt well and the number of days they were unable to work because of FM symptoms. The symptoms domain contains 7 items using 10-cm visual analog scales on which patients rate work difficulties, pain, fatigue, morning tiredness, stiffness, anxiety, and depression. Revised in 2009 to better reflect current understanding of FM and to address limitations of the original version while retaining its essential properties
