This study evaluates various assessments of body perception disturbances (BPDs) and their associations with upper- and lower-limb disability.
Observational cross-sectional study with 92 participants with chronic limb pain.
Participants completed BPD questionnaires and tests, along with clinical pain measures.
Cluster analysis identified BPD severity clusters and assessed their associations with upper- and lower-limb disability.
Cluster analysis identified 'High' and 'Low' BPD severity clusters with fair quality (silhouette = 0.40).
The Neurobehavioral questionnaire was the main contributor to BPD severity clustering (silhouette = 1).
'High' BPD cluster had significantly greater symptom severity (t(63) = −4.13, p < 0.001) compared to 'Low' BPD.
