There have previously been no validated foot and ankle-specific patient-reported outcome measures in Finnish.
The Visual Analogue Scale Foot and Ankle (VAS-FA) was translated and adapted into Finnish. Thereafter, 165 patients who had undergone foot and ankle surgery completed a questionnaire set on two separate occasions. Analyses included testing of floor-ceiling effect, internal consistency, reproducibility, and validity.
Minor linguistic differences emerged during the translation. Some structural adjustments were made. The mean (SD) total VAS-FA score was 74 (23). In the three subscales, maximum scores were noted in 2-5% of the responses, and internal consistency ranged from 0.81 to 0.94. Reproducibility was excellent (ICC, 0.97). The total VAS-FA score correlated significantly with the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (r=0.84) and the 15D Mobility dimension (r=0.79). The VAS-FA loaded on two factors (pain/movement and problems/limitations).
The Finnish version of the VAS-FA has high reliability and strong validity.
此前芬兰语中尚无经过验证的足踝特异性患者报告结局指标。
将视觉模拟量表足踝版(VAS-FA)翻译并改编为芬兰语版本。此后,165例接受足踝手术的患者分两次完成了一套问卷。分析包括地板效应和天花板效应测试、内部一致性、可重复性和效度。
翻译过程中出现了一些细微的语言差异。进行了一些结构调整。VAS-FA总分的均值(标准差)为74(23)。在三个子量表中,2%-5%的回答为满分,内部一致性范围为0.81至0.94。可重复性极佳(组内相关系数,0.97)。VAS-FA总分与下肢功能量表(r = 0.84)和15D移动维度(r = 0.79)显著相关。VAS-FA归为两个因子(疼痛/活动和问题/限制)。
芬兰语版VAS-FA具有高可靠性和强效度。
