Abstract
(en) [Fitness assessment test in painful handicap] Physical fitness is non-specifically altered in chronic pain. Having a tool to measure it in the chronic pain patient allows having a basic estimate. From this data, the therapist can follow-up and develop a revalidation plan. For this purpose, a submaximal effort test has been designed and validated. This test is simple, safe, reliable, and inexpensive. The article describes it as well as about its implementation in practice.
