Developmental care for newborns with congenital heart disease (CHD) improves cardiac and respiratory patterns. According to the American Heart Association, developmental care in newborns with CHD is important for improving neurodevelopmental outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Developmental Care Scale for Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease.
This was a methodological, descriptive study conducted with 169 nurses from a tertiary-level NICU. The Demographical Information Form and the Developmental Care Scale for Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease were used to collect the data. The scales' language and content validity, construct validity, and internal consistency were also assessed.
The scale consists of 31 items and four subscales. Factor loadings ranged from 0.44 to 0.82 and explained 65% of the total variance. Fit indices indicate that the model is acceptable. Cronbach's was 0.95 for the entire instrument, 0.91 for developing the external environment subscale, 0.94 for assessing family well-being, 0.86 for the caregiver activities toward the neonate, and 0.82 for the basic need subscale. Item-total correlations ranged between 0.34 and 0.75, according to the item analysis results.
The Turkish version of the Developmental Care Scale for Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease is valid and reliable. The use of this scale could improve the performance of neonatal intensive care nurses in providing developmental care to newborns with CHD as well as the quality of care.
对患有先天性心脏病（CHD）的新生儿进行发育护理可改善其心脏和呼吸模式。根据美国心脏协会的说法，对患有CHD的新生儿进行发育护理对于改善神经发育结局至关重要。本研究旨在评估先天性心脏病新生儿发育护理量表土耳其语版本的有效性和可靠性。
这是一项对来自三级新生儿重症监护病房的169名护士进行的方法学描述性研究。使用人口统计学信息表和先天性心脏病新生儿发育护理量表收集数据。还评估了量表的语言和内容效度、结构效度和内部一致性。
该量表由31个项目和四个子量表组成。因子载荷范围为0.44至0.82，解释了总方差的65%。拟合指数表明该模型是可接受的。整个量表的Cronbach's α为0.95，外部环境发展子量表为0.91，家庭幸福感评估为0.94，照顾者对新生儿的活动为0.86，基本需求子量表为0.82。根据项目分析结果，项目与总分的相关性在0.34至0.75之间。
先天性心脏病新生儿发育护理量表土耳其语版本是有效且可靠的。使用该量表可以提高新生儿重症监护护士为患有CHD的新生儿提供发育护理的表现以及护理质量。
