Abstract

Nausea, unlike emesis, is a subjective experience that is difficult to describe to others, be they clinicians or researchers. Previous research has been limited to examining the frequency, severity, and duration of nausea. The goal of this study was to design a questionnaire that would allow for the evaluation of the characteristics of nausea across individuals and situations. This study consisted of 4 stages: descriptors were generated, categorized into 3 dimensions, and reevaluated to verify their reliability; in the final stage, the developed checklist was compared to a visual-analogue-scale (VAS) report of nausea in subjects exposed to a rotating optokinetic drum to stimulate nausea. The overall nausea checklist score and the VAS score were highly correlated (r = 0.71, p < 0.01). The development and use of the nausea checklist are discussed.

摘要

与呕吐不同，恶心是一种主观体验，很难向他人描述，无论对方是临床医生还是研究人员。以往的研究仅限于调查恶心的频率、严重程度和持续时间。本研究的目的是设计一份问卷，以便能够评估不同个体和不同情况下恶心的特征。本研究包括4个阶段：生成描述词，将其分为3个维度，并重新评估以验证其可靠性；在最后阶段，将编制好的检查表与暴露于旋转视动鼓以诱发恶心的受试者的视觉模拟量表（VAS）恶心报告进行比较。恶心检查表总分与VAS评分高度相关（r = 0.71，p < 0.01）。本文讨论了恶心检查表的编制和应用。
