[The Italian version of Nordic Musculoskeletal Standardized Questionnaire]. / Versione in lingua Italiana del questionario standardizzato autocompilabile Nordic IRSST per la rile vazione di disturbi muscoloscheletrici .

We translated into Italian the Nordic musculoskelethal questionnaire, as completed by Canadian IRSST with Authors' agreement in 2001, according to OMS recommendations. This translation involved the following items: aches and troubles of neck, dorsal region, low back, shoulders, elbows, hands and wrists, hips and thighs, ankles and feet in the last 12 months. The questionnaire was then submitted to reliability and stability tests. The Italian version of the questionnaire, already used in different languages, proved to be suitable and reliable also for self administration.
