Abstract

BACKGROUND

Measuring health status of elderly is essential for the prediction of their health care needs. Health research usually considers objective outcome measure; however there is a need to increase self-reported measures of health.

AIMS

The aim of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the SF36 among a group of Lebanese elderly.

METHODS

It was a cross-sectional observational study. A systematic sample of elderly people aged 60 years and more was selected from dispensary, private and governmental hospitals in Lebanon. Data were collected using face-to-face interview. The first part of the questionnaire consisted of sociodemographic characteristics. The second part consisted of the Arabic version of the SF-36. The third part consisted of Activity of Daily Living (ADL) scale, presence of health problems and number of medication consumed per day.

RESULTS

A total of 250 elderly people were included. The mean age was 70.69±7.70 years. Cronbach alphas for all SF-36 scales exceeded 0.798. The intra-Class correlation coefficient varied between 0.675 (item 2) and 0.980 (items 14, 16 and 18) indicating good reliability. The quality of life (QoL) of women was poorer than men (p<0.001). It was significantly lesser when the number of health problems (p<0.001) and medications (p<0.001) increased, and the ADL score (p<0.05) decreased.

CONCLUSION

SF-36 is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring QoL among Lebanese elderly and could be used for monitoring the QoL of this population.

摘要

背景

衡量老年人的健康状况对于预测他们的医疗需求至关重要。健康研究通常考虑客观的结果衡量标准，但需要增加自我报告的健康衡量标准。

目的

本研究旨在评估黎巴嫩老年人中 SF36 的心理测量特性。

方法

这是一项横断面观察性研究。从黎巴嫩的诊所、私人和政府医院中，通过系统抽样选择了一组年龄在 60 岁及以上的老年人。通过面对面访谈收集数据。问卷的第一部分包括社会人口统计学特征。第二部分包括阿拉伯语版的 SF-36。第三部分包括日常生活活动（ADL）量表、健康问题的存在以及每天服用的药物数量。

结果

共纳入 250 名老年人。平均年龄为 70.69±7.70 岁。所有 SF-36 量表的克朗巴赫阿尔法值均超过 0.798。内类相关系数在 0.675（项目 2）和 0.980（项目 14、16 和 18）之间，表明具有良好的可靠性。女性的生活质量（QoL）比男性差（p<0.001）。当健康问题的数量（p<0.001）和药物的数量（p<0.001）增加，以及日常生活活动（ADL）评分（p<0.05）下降时，QoL 显著降低。
