2. Outcome of PDQ & DN4;
3. Outcome of Quantitative Sensory testing (QST) in 20% of the study population.
Secondary outcome
1. Medical comorbidity: Questionnaire with the most prevalent and relevant medical;
2. Mental health status: Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) (Spinhoven et al. 1997);

The aim of this study is to validate the Dutch versions of the PainDETECT questionnaire PD-Q and the ‘Douleur neuropathique en 4 questions’ (DN4) for use in primary and specialist medical care settings for patients with LBP and NSP and patients with neuropathic pain syndromes (NPS). The second objective is to assess the prevalence of neuropathy in patients with LBP and NSP in the Netherlands. Furthermore, this study aims to assess the general health status, mental health status, functioning, pain attribution and quality of life of patients with LBP, NSP and NPS.
Study design
1. Medical history, standardized gold standard, Questionnaires PDQ, DN4, DRI, HADS. SF-36, PAS + QST in 20% of the study population;
2. 2 weeks follow-up (test-retest reliability): PGIC, PDQ, DN4;
3. 3 months follow-up: PGIC, PDQ, DN4 (sensitivity for change, prognostic value).
Intervention
Cross-sectional research design to study the psychometric quality of the PD-Q and the DN4 as compared to a gold standard (Diagnosis by two independant physiciqans), QST (20% of the study population) and the Grading System by Treede et al. (Neurology, 2008) with 2 weeks follow-up for test-retest reliability and 3 months follow-up for monitoring and prognosis.
