The Partners at Care Transitions Measure (PACT-M) is a measure that assesses the quality and safety of care during the transition from hospital to home from the patient's perspective. The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the PACT-M in Mainland China.
This was a cross-sectional study. A convenience sample of patients was recruited from three tertiary hospitals affiliated with Zhengzhou University, China. A total of 402 participants were interviewed before discharge, and 306 participants were interviewed one month after discharge from hospital to home using the Chinese version of the PACT-M. The statistical methods used in this study include the critical ratio value, item total correlation, test-retest, Cronbach's alpha, confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory factor analysis.
The Chinese version of the PACT-M consists of PACT-M and PACT-M, both of which have two dimensions, the number of items in both parts are consistent with the original English language version. The Cronbach's alpha values of the PACT-M and PACT-M were 0.802 and 0.741, and the test-retest reliability values were 0.885 and 0.837. The item content validity index and scale content validity index values of the PACT-M and PACT-M were all 1.0.
The Chinese version of the PACT-M shows acceptable validity and reliability and can be used to assess the quality and safety of transitional care from hospital to home from the patient's perspective in mainland China.
伙伴关怀过渡措施量表（PACT-M）是一种从患者角度评估从医院到家庭过渡期间护理质量和安全性的工具。本研究旨在检验 PACT-M 中文版本在中国内地的心理测量学特性。
这是一项横断面研究。从中国郑州大学附属的三家三级医院招募了方便样本的患者。在出院前，共对 402 名参与者使用 PACT-M 中文版本进行了访谈，在出院后一个月，对 306 名参与者进行了访谈。本研究中使用的统计方法包括临界比值、项目总分相关性、重测信度、克朗巴赫 α 系数、验证性因子分析和探索性因子分析。
PACT-M 中文版本包括 PACT-M 和 PACT-M，两部分均有两个维度，两部分的项目数量与原始英语版本一致。PACT-M 和 PACT-M 的克朗巴赫 α 系数分别为 0.802 和 0.741，重测信度值分别为 0.885 和 0.837。PACT-M 和 PACT-M 的项目内容效度指数和量表内容效度指数均为 1.0。
PACT-M 中文版本具有可接受的有效性和可靠性，可用于评估中国内地从医院到家庭过渡期间的护理质量和安全性。
