Despite successful treatment, people living with HIV experience persisting and burdensome multidimensional problems. We aimed to assess the validity, reliability and responsiveness of Positive Outcomes, a patient-reported outcome measure for use in clinical practice.
In all, 1392 outpatients in five European countries self-completed Positive Outcomes, PAM-13 (patient empowerment), PROQOL-HIV (quality of life) and FRAIL (frailty) at baseline and 12 months. Analysis assessed: (a) validity (structural, convergent and divergent, discriminant); (b) reliability (internal consistency, test-retest); and (c) responsiveness.
An interpretable four-factor structure was identified: 'emotional wellbeing', 'interpersonal and sexual wellbeing', 'socioeconomic wellbeing' and 'physical wellbeing'. Moderate to strong convergent validity was found for three subscales of Positive Outcomes and PROQOL (ρ = -0.481 to -0.618, all p < 0.001). Divergent validity was found for total scores with weak ρ (-0.295, p < 0.001). Discriminant validity was confirmed with worse Positive Outcomes score associated with increasing odds of worse FRAIL group (4.81-fold, p < 0.001) and PAM-13 level (2.28-fold, p < 0.001). Internal consistency for total Positive Outcomes and its factors exceeded the conservative α threshold of 0.6. Test-retest reliability was established: those with stable PAM-13 and FRAIL scores also reported median Positive Outcomes change of 0. Improved PROQOL-HIV score baseline to 12 months was associated with improved Positive Outcomes score (r = -0.44, p < 0.001).
Positive Outcomes face and content validity was previously established, and the remaining validity, reliability and responsiveness properties are now demonstrated. The items within the brief 22-item tool are designed to be actionable by health and social care professionals to facilitate the goal of person-centred care.
尽管治疗取得成功,但感染艾滋病毒的人仍面临持续且繁重的多方面问题。我们旨在评估“积极结果”(Positive Outcomes)这一用于临床实践的患者报告结局指标的有效性、可靠性和反应性。
来自五个欧洲国家的1392名门诊患者在基线和12个月时自行完成了“积极结果”、PAM - 13(患者赋权)、PROQOL - HIV(生活质量)和FRAIL(虚弱)量表的填写。分析评估了:(a)有效性(结构效度、聚合效度和区分效度、判别效度);(b)可靠性(内部一致性、重测信度);以及(c)反应性。
确定了一个可解释的四因素结构:“情绪健康”、“人际和性健康”、“社会经济健康”和“身体健康”。“积极结果”量表的三个子量表与PROQOL量表之间存在中度到高度的聚合效度(ρ = -0.481至 -0.618,所有p < 0.001)。总分的区分效度较弱(ρ = -0.295,p < 0.001)。判别效度得到证实,FRAIL组情况越差(比值比4.81倍,p < 0.001)以及PAM - 13水平越高(比值比2.28倍,p < 0.001),“积极结果”得分越差。“积极结果”总分及其各因素的内部一致性超过了保守的α阈值0.6。建立了重测信度:PAM - 13和FRAIL得分稳定的患者报告的“积极结果”中位数变化为0。从基线到12个月PROQOL - HIV得分的改善与“积极结果”得分的改善相关(r = -0.44,p < 0.001)。
“积极结果”量表的表面效度和内容效度先前已确立,现在展示了其余的效度、可靠性和反应性特征。这个简短的22项工具中的条目旨在供健康和社会护理专业人员采取行动,以促进以患者为中心的护理目标。
