To determine the validity of the Spanish version of the King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ) in patients with spinal cord injury.
A cross-sectional study, including a total of 120 patients with spinal cord injury. The feasibility, cross-cultural validity, and internal consistency of the KHQ were evaluated.
The dimensions with the highest scores were: impact of urinary symptoms, personal relations, and physical limitations. The following groups presented a significantly poorer HRQoL: persons of advanced age in personal relations (P=0.042), women in limitations of daily life activities (P=0.009) and in the impact of urinary incontinence (P<0.01), paraplegic patients in personal relations, and patients with incomplete cord lesions in sleeping and energy (P<0.01). Patients with an external condom catheter presented a better HRQoL with significant differences in the dimension, limitations of daily life activities (P=0.04). The KHQ showed good internal consistency (Cronbach alpha 0.91).
KHQ is a valid instrument for evaluating HRQoL related with urinary incontinence in patients with spinal cord injury.
确定西班牙文版国王健康问卷(KHQ)在脊髓损伤患者中的有效性。
一项横断面研究,共纳入120例脊髓损伤患者。对KHQ的可行性、跨文化效度和内部一致性进行评估。
得分最高的维度为:泌尿系统症状影响、人际关系和身体限制。以下几组患者的健康相关生活质量明显较差:人际关系方面的高龄者(P=0.042)、日常生活活动受限方面的女性(P=0.009)和尿失禁影响方面的女性(P<0.01)、人际关系方面的截瘫患者、睡眠和精力方面脊髓损伤不完全的患者(P<0.01)。使用外部避孕套导尿管的患者健康相关生活质量较好,在日常生活活动受限维度存在显著差异(P=0.04)。KHQ显示出良好的内部一致性(克朗巴哈α系数为0.91)。
KHQ是评估脊髓损伤患者尿失禁相关健康相关生活质量的有效工具。
