The lack of instruments to assess asthma self-management in Brazil highlights the need to develop specific tools to help patients manage their own health condition.
The study aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt, and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Asthma Self-Management Questionnaire (ASMQ) for the Brazilian adult population diagnosed with asthma.
This is a methodological, exploratory, and descriptive study approved by the Research Ethics Committee (CEP) of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) under opinion number 6.062.022. The study followed international guidelines to design and execute six stages: translation, synthesis of translations, back-translation, synthesis of back-translations, Multidisciplinary Committee of Experts, and pre-testing. For the translation phase, five judges participated using the Delphi Technique through the Multidisciplinary Committee of Experts. For the cross-cultural adaptation, a pre-test phase was conducted using a questionnaire applied to individuals who met the eligibility criteria. Data analysis was performed using SPSS statistical software, version 22.0, with a significance level of 5%.
The translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the ASMQ-Brazil to Brazilian Portuguese were completed. The results of this study demonstrated a Content Validity Index (CVI) greater than 0.80 for all items in the instrument. The ASMQ-Brazil is presented as a valid and reliable health measurement instrument for assessing asthma self-management in the Brazilian adult population.
巴西缺乏评估哮喘自我管理的工具，这凸显了开发特定工具以帮助患者管理自身健康状况的必要性。
本研究旨在对哮喘自我管理问卷（ASMQ）进行翻译、跨文化调适，并评估其在巴西成年哮喘患者中的心理测量学特性。
这是一项方法学、探索性和描述性研究，已获得北里奥格兰德联邦大学（UFRN）研究伦理委员会（CEP）批准，意见编号为6.062.022。该研究遵循国际指南设计并执行六个阶段：翻译、翻译合成、回译、回译合成、多学科专家委员会以及预测试。在翻译阶段，五名评判员通过多学科专家委员会采用德尔菲技术参与。对于跨文化调适，使用一份问卷对符合纳入标准的个体进行预测试阶段。使用SPSS 22.0统计软件进行数据分析，显著性水平为5%。
完成了ASMQ - 巴西版到巴西葡萄牙语的翻译和跨文化调适。本研究结果表明该工具所有项目的内容效度指数（CVI）均大于0.80。ASMQ - 巴西版是一种有效且可靠的健康测量工具，用于评估巴西成年人群的哮喘自我管理情况。
