An HIV-specific version of the QUOTE questionnaire was developed to measure the quality of care of patients infected with HIV from the patients' perspective. The consistency and validity of the questionnaire was assessed.
Focus group discussions were held to select aspects for inclusion in the questionnaire that are important to patients with HIV. Item and inter-item analysis, factor analysis, and reliability analysis were performed to test the internal consistency and validity of the questionnaire.
Twenty seven items (13 generic and 14 HIV specific) were used in the QUOTE-HIV questionnaire. Separate factor analyses of the generic and HIV specific aspects indicated that each loaded onto a single factor. The internal consistency of the total questionnaire was good (Cronbach's alpha >/=0.80). Feasibility of the questionnaire was shown by the diversity of importance and performance scores for general practitioners as well as for HIV specialists and AIDS nursing consultants.
The QUOTE-HIV questionnaire is a useful instrument for measuring the quality of care from the perspective of HIV infected patients.

进行焦点小组讨论，以选择对HIV患者重要的问卷纳入方面。进行项目和项目间分析、因子分析和信度分析，以检验问卷的内部一致性和效度。
QUOTE-HIV问卷使用了27个项目（13个通用项目和14个HIV特异性项目）。对通用方面和HIV特异性方面的单独因子分析表明，每个方面都加载到一个单一因子上。整个问卷的内部一致性良好（Cronbach's alpha≥0.80）。全科医生、HIV专科医生和艾滋病护理顾问的重要性和表现评分的多样性表明了该问卷的可行性。
QUOTE-HIV问卷是从HIV感染患者角度衡量护理质量的有用工具。
