📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Purpose: The purpose of this study was to translate the Swallow Quality of Life Questionnaire (SWAL-QOL) into Turkish and to test its reliability and validity among patients with neurogenic swallowing disorders.Methods: One hundred and five patients (mean age= 57±15.4 years, mean weight= 69.5±16.3 kg, mean height=162.8±22.4 cm) completed the Turkish version of the SWAL-QOL (T-SWAL-QOL) and short form of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHO QOL-BREF).
📊
Key Findings & Data:The correlation between T-SWAL-QOL and WHO-QOL-BREF was calculated to evaluate criterion validity.Results: The internal consistency of T-SWAL-QOL was found to be high with 0.88 Cronbach's alpha value for test and 0.91 Cronbach's alpha value for retest.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to translate the Swallow Quality of Life Questionnaire (SWAL-QOL) into Turkish and to test its reliability and validity among patients with neurogenic swallowing disorders.Methods: One hundred and five patients (mean age= 57±15.4 years, mean weight= 69.5±16.3 kg, mean height=162.8±22.4 cm) completed the Turkish version of the SWAL-QOL (T-SWAL-QOL) and short form of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHO QOL-BREF). The internal consistency, test-retest reliability and criterion validity of T-SWAL-QOL as psychometric analysis were explored. Reliability was estimated using tests of internal consistency and test-retest reliability. The correlation between T-SWAL-QOL and WHO-QOL-BREF was calculated to evaluate criterion validity.Results: The internal consistency of T-SWAL-QOL was found to be high with 0.88 Cronbach's alpha value for test and 0.91 Cronbach's alpha value for retest. General burden, eating duration, eating desire and social subscales were found to have good test-retest reliability (r=0.696, r=0.790, r=0.787, r=0786, p<0.001; respectively) and, food selection, fear of eating, sleep, fatigue, communication and mental health were found to have excellent test-retest reliability (r=0.832, r=0.833, r=0.841, r=0.839, r=0.883, r=0.847, p<0.001; respectively). A weak/moderate correlation was found between the T-SWAL-QOL and WHO-QOL-BREF (p<0.05).Discussion: The T-SWAL-QOL was shown to be a valid and reliable questionnaire in dysphagia evaluation. This study will contribute to solve the problem about the lack of a scale to measure the dysphagia specific quality of life in Turkey.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; Yutma Yaşam Kalitesi Anketi (SWAL-QOL)'nin Türkçe'ye çevrilmesi ve nörojenik yutma güçlüğü olan hastalar arasında güvenirlik ve geçerliliğinin test edilmesidir.Yöntemler: Yüz beş hasta (ortalama yaş= 57±15.4 yıl, ortalama ağırlık= 69.5±16.3 kg, ortalama boy=162.8±22.4 cm) SWAL-QOL'ın Türkçe versiyonu (T-SWAL-QOL) ve World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHO QOL-BREF)'ın kısa formunu tamamladı. T-SWAL-QOL'ın iç tutarlılığı, test-tekrar test güvenirliği ve kriter geçerliliği psikometrik analizler olarak araştırıldı. Güvenirlik; iç tutarlılık ve test-tekrar test güvenilirliği testleri kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Kriter geçerliliği değerlendirmek için T-SWAL-QOL ve WHO-QOL-BREF arasındaki korelasyon hesaplandı.Sonuçlar: T-SWAL-QOL'in iç tutarlılığı test için Cronbach's alpha değeri 0.88, tekrar test için 0.91 olmak üzere yüksek bulundu. Genel yakınma, yeme zamanı, yeme isteği ve sosyal alt başlıklarının test-tekrar test güvenirliği iyi (sırasıyla; r=0.696, r=0.790, r=0.787, r=0786, p<0.001) ve besin seçimi, yeme korkusu, uyku, yorgunluk, iletişim ve mental sağlık test-tekrar test güvenirliği mükemmel bulundu (sırasıyla; r=0.832, r=0.833, r=0.841, r=0.839, r=0.883, r=0.847, p<0.001). T-SWAL-QOL ve WHO-QOL-BREF arasında zayıf/orta düzeyde korelasyon bulundu (p<0.05).Tartışma: T-SWAL-QOL'in disfaji değerlendirmesinde geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğu gösterildi. Bu çalışma; Türkiye'de disfajiye özel yaşam kalitesini değerlendiren ölçek eksikliği ile ilgili problemin çözümüne katkı sağladı.
