The purpose of this study was to translate the BSHS-B into Spanish and perform its cross-cultural adaptation. Methods First, BSHS-B was translated from English into Spanish. Subsequently, 84 patients answered the Spanish version of BSHS-B and SF-36 scales to assess the reliability (Cronbach's alpha), construct validity (Spearman rank test), and stability in time (intra-class correlation coefficient). Results The BSHS-B-Sp showed a good internal consistency with a global Cronbach's alpha of 0.96. Correlations between the major domains of BSHS-B and SF-36 are reported with Spearman's coefficient ranging from 0.29 to 0.87 in all sub-domains (penAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/BSHS-BQuestionnaireSpanish languageQuality-of-lifeCultural-adaptationWork statusInjurySf-36research articleopen access10.1007/s00238-022-01954-11435-0130https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00238-022-01954-1.pdf784900500001
