Akut derin ven trombozu sonrası yaşam kalitesi: VEINES-QOL/Sym ölçeğinin kültürel adaptasyonu, güvenirliği ve geçerliği: Türkçe versiyon çalışması

Amaç: Bu çalışmada günümüzde yaygın olarak kullanılan Venöz Yetmezlikte Epidemiyolojik ve Ekonomik Çalışma-Yaşam Kalitesi Anketinin (VEINES-QOL/Sym) uluslararası kılavuzlara göre Türkçe uyarlaması ve kültürel adaptasyonu yapıldı ve Türkçe konuşan akut derin ven trombozlu (DVT) hastalara uygulanarak istatistiksel olarak ölçeğin geçerliği ve güvenirliği değerlendirildi. Çalışm a planı: Anketin çevirisi ve kültürel adaptasyonu yapıldı. Otuz bir akut DVTli hastaya uygulandı. Test-tekrar test güvenirliğini değerlendirmek için ilk uygulamadan 5-7 gün sonra VEINES-QOL/Sym tekrar uygulandı. İç tutarlılık Cronbach alfa katsayısı (madde çıkarılırsa değişim dahil) ile, test-tekrar test güvenirliği ise sınıf içi korelasyon katsayısı ile değerlendirildi. Geçerlik, VEINES-QOL/Symin Notthingham Sağlık Profili (NHP) ve altı dakikalık yürüme testi (6DYT) mesafesi ile olan ilişkisi kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Cronbach alfa katsayısı VEINES-QOL için 0.96, VEINES-Sym için 0.94 olarak bulundu. Ölçekte sorunlu maddeler gözlenmedi. Test-tekrar test güvenirliği için sınıf içi korelasyon katsayısı VEINES-QOL ve VEINES-Sym için sırasıyla 0.984 ve 0.996 idi. VEINES-QOL/Sym ölçeğinin yüksek güvenirliğe sahip olduğu bulundu. 6DYT mesafesi ile VEINES-QOL/ Sym arasındaki ilişki araştırıldığında, VEINES-QOL ile orta düzeyde ilişki (r= 0.372; p

Quality of life following acute deep vein thrombosis: the cultural adaptation, reliability and validity of the VEINES-QOL/Sym scale: A Turkish version study

Background: This study aims to translate and make cultural adaptation of a widely used Venous Insufficiency Epidemiologic and Economic Study Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (VEINES- QOL/Sym) into Turkish according to international guidelines and to statistically evaluate its validity and reliability by administering it to Turkish-speaking patients with acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Methods: Translation and cultural adaptation of the questionnaire were performed. It was administered to 31 patients with acute DVT. The VEINES-QOL/Sym was performed 5-7 days after its initial application to evaluate its test-retest reliability. The internal consistency was assessed through Cronbach's alpha (including if item was deleted), test-retest reliability was assessed through the intraclass correlation coefficient. Validity was examined by correlation of VEINES-QOL/Sym with Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) and the distance of six-minute walk test (6MWT). Results: Cronbach s alfa values were 0.96 for the VEINES-QOL and 0.94 for the VEINES-Sym. No problematic items were observed for the scale. Intraclass correlation coefficient score for test-retest reliability were 0.984 and 0.996 for VEINES-QOL and VEINES-Sym scores, respectively. The VEINES-QOL/Sym scale was considered highly reliable. When the relation between VEINES-QOL/Sym and the distance of 6MWT was investigated, the relation of VEINES-QOL was moderate (r= 0.372; p
