OBJECTIVE: Although most causes of abdominal pain have a visceral origin, the musculoskeletal system must be considered when the cause is not obvious. This prospective study aimed to identify questions that would aid the diagnosis of patients with abdominal pain of musculoskeletal origin.
DESIGN: Assessment of consecutive patients with abdominal pain recruited from gastroenterological outpatient clinics to develop diagnostic pointers to identify abdominal pain arising from musculoskeletal disorders.
PARTICIPANTS: Subjects with benign abdominal pain, with or without a change in bowel habit, were recruited from gastroenterological clinics. Patients with inflammatory or neoplastic disease were excluded.
SETTING: The study was conducted in the Physiotherapy Department, Addenbrooke's NHS Trust Hospital, Cambridge.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: A set of questions developed to indicate a musculoskeletal cause of a patient's abdominal symptoms. RESULTS The questions 'Does taking a deep breath aggravate your symptoms?' and 'Does twisting your back aggravate your symptoms?' had a significant positive indication of abdominal symptoms of musculoskeletal origin. The questions 'Has there been any change in bowel habit since onset of your symptoms?', 'Does eating foods aggravate your symptoms?' and 'Has there been any weight change since onset of symptoms?' had a significant negative indication for abdominal symptoms not of musculoskeletal origin. A combination of these questions gave 96% specificity and 67% sensitivity.
CONCLUSION: These questions may help with the early identification of patients with abdominal pain of musculoskeletal origin and will be tested in further studies.
