The main objective of this study was to translate and validate the short form 36 (SF-36) health survey questionnaire into the Nepali language using a standard protocol to determine health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD).
We conducted a cross-sectional study among 40 patients with CLD. A formal translation of SF-36 from English into the Nepali language was performed. Patients with CLD without other known co-morbidities were administered the Nepali version of SF-36. Cronbach's alpha and test-retest were performed for reliability analysis.
Cronbach's alpha of overall SF-36 score was 0.85, and the test-retest correlation coefficient was 0.78 (p <0.05).
The Nepali language version of SF-36 is valid and reliable.
本研究的主要目的是使用标准方案将简短健康调查问卷36项(SF - 36)翻译成尼泊尔语,并进行验证,以确定慢性肝病(CLD)患者的健康相关生活质量(HRQoL)。
我们对40例CLD患者进行了横断面研究。将SF - 36从英语正式翻译成尼泊尔语。对无其他已知合并症的CLD患者进行尼泊尔语版SF - 36问卷调查。采用克朗巴哈系数(Cronbach's alpha)和重测法进行信度分析。
SF - 36总分的克朗巴哈系数为0.85,重测相关系数为0.78(p<0.05)。
尼泊尔语版SF - 36有效且可靠。
