WHOQOL-BREF विश्व स्वास्थ्य संगठन (WHO) द्वारा विकसित 26-प्रश्नों वाली प्रश्नावली है, जो जीवन-गुणवत्ता को चार क्षेत्रों—शारीरिक स्वास्थ्य, मनोवैज्ञानिक, सामाजिक संबंध और पर्यावरण—में मापती है।

FAQs
What is Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation?
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R), also known as physiatry, is an allopathic medical specialty that involves restoring function for a person who has been disabled by disease, disorder, or injury. It provides integrated, multidisciplinary care addressing physical, emotional, medical, vocational, and social needs.
Who is a “Physiatrist”?
A physiatrist is a physician specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation. (In India: MBBS followed by MD/DNB in PMR.)
What is Rehabilitation?
Rehabilitation is the process of helping a person achieve the highest level of function, independence, and quality of life possible. It does not undo damage but restores optimal health, functioning, and well-being.
Is PM&R only for people with disabilities?
No. PM&R serves anyone experiencing a decline in physical function—from athletes with injuries to elderly individuals recovering from surgery, falls, or pain.
Can physiatrists perform surgery?
Yes. In India, physiatrists perform rehabilitation surgeries such as deformity corrections, tendon transfers, and revision of amputations.
How does PM&R help in managing chronic pain?
Physiatrists use a multimodal approach—evaluation, diagnosis, medication, therapy, injections (e.g., nerve blocks, trigger point/joint injections), and lifestyle modifications—to reduce pain and improve daily function.
What conditions do physiatrists treat?
Common conditions include stroke, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, amputations, sports injuries, chronic musculoskeletal pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and more.
