AB  - The World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) is 
      considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) to be a useful tool for 
      assessing the functioning and disability of the general population as well as the 
      effectiveness of the applied interventions. Until this study, no data regarding 
      the validity of the 36-item WHODAS 2.0 in chronic low back pain (LBP) in Poland 
      have been explored. This study was conducted on 92 patients suffering from 
      chronic LBP admitted to the rehabilitation ward. The Polish version of the 
      36-item WHODAS 2.0, the Sf-36 Health Survey (SF-36), the Oswestry Disability 
      Index (ODI), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Visual 
      Analogue Scale (VAS) questionnaires were applied to assess patients. The scale 
      score reliability of the entire tool for the study population was very high. The 
      Cronbach's alpha test result for the entire scale was 0.92. For the overall 
      result of the WHODAS 2.0, the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC(1,2)) was 
      0.928, which confirmed that the scale was consistent over time. The total result 
      and the vast majority of domains of the 36-item WHODAS 2.0 correlated negatively 
      with domains of the SF-36 questionnaire; thus, a higher WHODAS 2.0 score was 
      associated with a lower score on the SF-36 questionnaire. We found that the 
      minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for the total WHODAS 2.0 score in 
      patients after rehabilitation for LBP was 4.87. Overall, the results indicated 
      that the Polish version of the 36-item WHODAS is suitable for assessing health 
      and disability status in patients with LBP.
