Pain-related interference – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/35665470
Pain-related interference is a measure for how much the pain interferes with daily activities and participation (“how much does the pain interfere with your life?”). The patient should be asked to rate the average pain-related interference they experienced in the last week on an 11-point numerical rating scale (ranging from 0 ‘no interference’ to 10 ‘unable to carry on activities’) or a 100mm visual rating scale.
