Objectives: to investigate the questionnaires used in French-speaking Belgian spine multidisciplinary rehabilitation centers for patients with low back pain and to propose a minimal core set of questionnaires based on the results of our survey and on the (inter)national guidelines.
Methods: the spine centers offering the 36 two-hour sessions defined by the Belgian national Institute for Health and disability insurance were invited to provide their battery of questionnaires.
Results: among the 37 identified and contacted centers, 21 participated in our survey. Results pointed out the use of questionnaires assessing pain intensity, disability, anxiety/depression and kinesiophobia in most centers as well as a huge heterogeneity regarding the questionnaires (and even the version of the questionnaire) reported and the non-systematic use of questionnaires recommended by the guidelines.
Conclusion: taking into account the results of this survey, the present article proposes a minimal core set of questionnaires meeting the guidelines, which would make it possible to harmonize the assessments in the different centers and would facilitate the realization of multicenter studies.

Therefore, the use of removable dental prostheses (RDPs) is expected to decline over time.
