Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the 'Patient-Rated Ulnar Nerve Evaluation’(PRUNE-T) scale. Patients and Method: 51 patients diagnosed with cubital tunnel syndrome were included to this study. PRUNE scale was translated into Turkish by using cross-cultural adaptation process which can be used for the follow-up. All patients filled PRUNE-T, Q-DASH, SF-12 forms. HGS were measured. Two hours after the evaluation, the PRUNE-T scale was refilled. The internal consistency reliability of the scale and its subscales were examined by Cronbach Alpha coefficient. The reliability of the scale was evaluated with test-retest reliability method. The compliance validity of the scale was evaluated by examining its relationship with Q-DASH and SF-12. The construct validity was evaluated according to the variables of the HGS. The relationships between variables were evaluated by Spearman's rho coefficient. Intergroup comparisons were performed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated as 0.919 in the overall total reliability analysis of the PRUNE-T. In test-retest reliability, the correlation coefficient was 1 for the total score (p 0.05). There was significant correlation between Q-DASH score and SF-12 score with PRUNE-T (p
