Increasing evidence show that women across the world face unacceptable mistreatment during childbirth. Person-centered maternity care is fundamental and essential to quality of healthcare services. The aim of this study was to translate and determine the psychometric properties of the Person-Centered Maternity Care (PCMC) Scale among Chinese postpartum women.
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1235 post-partum women in China. The cross-cultural adaptation process followed the Beaton intercultural debugging guidelines. A total of 1235 women were included to establish the psychometric properties of the PCMC. A demographic characteristics form and the PCMC were used for data collection. The psychometric properties of the PCMC were evaluated by examining item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, known-groups discriminant validity, and internal consistency.
The number of extracted common factors was limited to three (dignity & respect, communication & autonomy, supportive care), explaining a total variance of 40.8%. Regarding internal consistency, the Cronbach's alpha coefficient and split-half reliability of the full PCMC score were 0.989 and 0.852, respectively.
The Chinese version of the PCMC is a reliable and valid tool to assess person-centered care during childbirth in China.
越来越多的证据表明,全世界的女性在分娩过程中都面临着不可接受的虐待。以患者为中心的产时护理是医疗服务质量的基础和关键。本研究旨在翻译并确定中文版产妇中心化护理量表(PCMC)在中国产后女性中的心理测量特性。
在中国进行了一项横断面研究,共纳入 1235 名产后女性。跨文化调适过程遵循 Beaton 跨文化调试指南。共有 1235 名女性被纳入以确定 PCMC 的心理测量特性。使用人口统计学特征表和 PCMC 进行数据收集。通过项目分析、探索性因子分析、已知组别的判别有效性和内部一致性来评估 PCMC 的心理测量特性。
提取的共同因素数量限制在三个(尊重、沟通和自主权、支持性护理),解释了总方差的 40.8%。关于内部一致性,PCMC 总分的克朗巴赫α系数和分半信度分别为 0.989 和 0.852。
中文版 PCMC 是一种可靠和有效的工具,可用于评估中国分娩过程中的以患者为中心的护理。
