The Portuguese version of the musculoskeletal pain intensity and interference questionnaire for musicians (MPIIQM-Pt): Translation, cultural adaptation, and multicenter validation study in professional orchestra musicians.

MPIIQM-Pt is the first validated questionnaire to evaluate pain among Portuguese musicians. It showed excellent psychometric properties, both in terms of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, factor analysis, and construct validity. Therefore, it is a valid and reliable tool suitable for both research and clinical practice purposes. MPIIQM-Pt will allow the development of more robust studies on pain among musicians and the improved assessment and monitoring of pain in this population, filling an important gap in this field of Pain Medicine.
