Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to perform validity and reliability of Turkish version of the Dyspnea-12 Scale.Material and Methods: This methodological study was conducted with 60 COPD patients followed in a university hospital located in Ankara. “Patient Information Form” and “The Dyspnea-12 Scale” were used for data collection. The language, content and structure validity and the reliability stages were completed, respectively.Results: The mean age of the patients was 63.5±8.7 years, and the mean duration of COPD was 5.9±4.9 years. The big majority of the sample was composed of male (70.0%) and married (81.7%) patients. There was a consistency between the expert views on the items of the scalein the content variability analysis (CVR=1.00). As a result of exploratory factor analysis, thescale included two factor structures explaining 84.14% of the total variance, and the factorloadings ranged from 0.80 to 0.95. According to the confirmatory factor analysis, Chi-square/df was 1.936, non-normed fit index was 0.89, and comparative fit index was 0.94. The internalconsistency of the Cronbach’s alpha was 0.97.Conclusion: The Turkish version of the Dyspnea-12 Scale met validity and reliability criteriaat an acceptable level, is an appropriate tool to assess of dyspnea in a subjective manner andcan be applied in clinical trials.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Dispne-12 Ölçeğinin Türkçe geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmasının yapılmasıdır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Metodolojik tasarıma sahip araştırma, Ankara ilinde bir üniversite hastanesinde takip edilen 60 KOAH tanılı hastayla yürütülmüştür. Veri toplamak için “Hasta Bilgi Formu” ve ”Dispne-12 Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Sırasıyla ölçeğin dil ve kapsam geçerliği, yapı geçerliği, güvenirlik değerlerini belirleme aşamaları gerçekleştirilmiştir.Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 63.5±8.7, KOAH tanı yılı ortalaması 5.9.±4.9 yıl idi. Örneklemin büyük çoğunluğunu (%70.0) erkek ve evli (%81.7) hastalar oluşturmuştur. Yapılan kapsam geçerliğinde ölçek maddelerine ilişkin uzman görüşleri arasında yüksek derecede uyum olduğu saptanmıştır (KGO=1.00). Açımlayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda, ölçeğin toplam varyansın %84.14’ünü açıklayan iki faktörlü yapıya sahip olduğu ve faktör yüklerinin 0.80-0.95 arasında değiştiği belirlenmiştir. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizine göre, Ki-kare/sd=1.936, normlaştırılmamış uyum indeksi=0.89 ve karşılaştırmalı uyum indeksi=0.94 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Ölçeğin Cronbach alfa güvenirlik katsayısı 0.97 bulunmuştur.Sonuç: Dispne-12 Ölçeğinin Türkçe versiyonunun geçerlik ve güvenirlik kriterlerini kabul edilebilir düzeyde karşıladığı belirlenmiştir. Dispnenin subjektif açıdan değerlendirilmesinde önemli yeri olan ölçek, klinik çalışmalarda kullanılabilir.
