To develop and validate the Urdu version of the International Prostate Symptoms Score.
The prospective study was conducted at Indus Hospital, Karachi, from January to April 2014, and comprised interviews of subjects at baseline and at 2 weeks for assessing the test-retest reliability. Patients presenting with lower urinary track symptoms and who were able to read Urdu were recruited as subjects. The reliability of the Urdu version of the International Prostate Symptoms Score was assessed by determining the internal consistency, and by assessing the test-retest reliability.
There were 58 subjects with a mean age of 61.53+/-9.99 years. There was no statistically significant difference in self-administered and assister filling total score (p=0.145) and quality of life (p=0.201). For reliability analysis, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.756 total score and 0.622 for quality of life.
The Urdu version of the International Prostate Symptoms Score stood validated for assessing lower urinary track symptoms.
开发并验证国际前列腺症状评分的乌尔都语版本。
前瞻性研究于2014年1月至4月在卡拉奇的印度河医院进行，包括在基线和2周时对受试者进行访谈，以评估重测信度。招募出现下尿路症状且能够阅读乌尔都语的患者作为受试者。通过确定内部一致性和评估重测信度来评估国际前列腺症状评分乌尔都语版本的信度。
有58名受试者，平均年龄为61.53±9.99岁。自我填写和协助填写的总分（p = 0.145）及生活质量（p = 0.201）无统计学显著差异。进行信度分析时，总分的克朗巴赫α系数为0.756，生活质量的为0.622。
国际前列腺症状评分的乌尔都语版本经证实可用于评估下尿路症状。
