Hypertension is an important cardiovascular disease risk factor. Blood pressure control for hypertensive patients is crucial to prevent hypertension related complications. Ensuring and assessing self-care of hypertensive patients is important for blood pressure control and hypertension management. The Self-care of Hypertension Inventory (SC-HI) is an inventory developed for assessing self-care of hypertensive individuals. SC-HI has three subscales; maintenance, monitoring and management.
The aim of this study was to conduct Turkish version of SC-HI Version 3.0 (SC-HI V3.0) and assessing its psychometric properties for adults with hypertension.
We included 120 hypertensive patients in this methodological study. SC-HI V3.0 translated Turkish and tested for reliability and validity. To analyse structural validity item-total correlations and factor analyses was used. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) method was selected for analysing scale's consistency and convergent validity was conducted.
The mean age of participants were 54.74 ± 7.19 years and the mean duration from hypertension diagnosis were 38.19 ± 19.42 months. Translated Turkish version's factor loadings were ranged between 0.419 and 0.841. Cronbach's alpha coefficient values were 0.661, 0.880, 0.805 and ICC values were 1.0, 0.99, 0.99 for maintenance, monitoring and management, respectively. Convergent validity's correlation coefficients weak to very strong and statistically significant.
Turkish version of the SC-HI Version 3.0 is reliable, valid and useful scale for assessing self-management in hypertensive adults for clinical practice and research purposes.
高血压是一种重要的心血管疾病危险因素。高血压患者的血压控制对于预防高血压相关并发症至关重要。确保和评估高血压患者的自我护理对于血压控制和高血压管理很重要。高血压自我护理量表（SC-HI）是一种用于评估高血压个体自我护理的量表。SC-HI 有三个分量表：维持、监测和管理。
本研究旨在对土耳其版的 SC-HI 第 3.0 版（SC-HI V3.0）进行评估，并评估其对高血压成人的心理测量特性。
我们在这项方法学研究中纳入了 120 名高血压患者。SC-HI V3.0 被翻译成土耳其语，并对其进行了可靠性和有效性测试。为了分析结构有效性，使用了项目总分相关性和因子分析。采用组内相关系数（ICC）法分析量表的一致性，采用收敛有效性进行分析。
参与者的平均年龄为 54.74±7.19 岁，从高血压诊断到现在的平均时间为 38.19±19.42 个月。翻译后的土耳其版本的因子负荷在 0.419 到 0.841 之间。Cronbach's alpha 系数值分别为 0.661、0.880、0.805，ICCs 值分别为 1.0、0.99、0.99，分别用于维持、监测和管理。收敛有效性的相关系数为弱至强，且具有统计学意义。
土耳其版的 SC-HI V3.0 是一种可靠、有效和有用的量表，可用于评估高血压成人的自我管理，适用于临床实践和研究目的。
