The purposes of this study was to 1) perform a cross-cultural Arabic translation for the Patient-Rated Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE-A) using standardized guidelines and, 2) to test the psychometrics properties of the translated measure.
A total of 48 patients with variety of hand disabilities, a mean age of 47 ± 16 years were recruited and assessed two times. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used for assessing test-retest reliability of the PRWHE-A and its subscales while Cronbach's alpha (CA) was used for assessing the internal consistency. Construct validity was assessed by examining the strength of the correlation between the PRWHE-A and the Arabic version of the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH-A).
The PRWHE-A demonstrated excellent test-retest reliability (ICC= 0.97) and internal consistency (CA= 0.96). The DASH-A demonstrated moderately to low correlation (r= 0.64) with the PRWHE-A.
The results of this study indicated that PRWHE-A is a reliable and valid assessment tool and can be used in patients with different wrist/hand disabilities whose primary language is Arabic.
本研究的目的是:1)使用标准化指南对患者自评手腕和手部评估量表(PRWHE - A)进行跨文化阿拉伯语翻译;2)测试翻译后量表的心理测量学特性。
共招募了48名患有各种手部残疾的患者,平均年龄为47±16岁,并对其进行了两次评估。组内相关系数(ICC)用于评估PRWHE - A及其子量表的重测信度,而克朗巴哈系数(CA)用于评估内部一致性。通过检验PRWHE - A与阿拉伯语版手臂、肩膀和手部功能障碍量表(DASH - A)之间的相关性强度来评估结构效度。
PRWHE - A表现出出色的重测信度(ICC = 0.97)和内部一致性(CA = 0.96)。DASH - A与PRWHE - A表现出中度至低度相关性(r = 0.64)。
本研究结果表明,PRWHE - A是一种可靠且有效的评估工具,可用于母语为阿拉伯语的不同手腕/手部残疾患者。
