Abstract

Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Early and comprehensive risk identification is essential for identifying individuals at high risk for stroke. This study aimed to evaluate each question in the new Stroke Risk Screening Scales (SRSS) and assess the domains for content relevance and representativeness. Initially, six stroke experts were invited to evaluate the SRSS questions. The content validity index (CVI), including the item-CVI (I-CVI) and the average-CVI (Ave-CVI), was then calculated. In our study, the acceptable standards for I-CVI and Ave-CVI were ≥0.78 and ≥0.9, respectively. The results showed that all invited experts accepted the invitation and evaluated the SRSS questions. The previous version of the SRSS consisted of 33 questions. Of these, 30 questions reached an I-CVI of ≥0.78, indicating good content validity. Three questions had an I-CVI of 0.67 and were considered invalid; thus, they were deleted. The overall instrument achieved an Ave-CVI of 0.95. Comprehensive SRSS are essential for effective stroke prevention planning. By facilitating the early identification of individuals at high risk for stroke, these scales help reduce the incidence and impact of stroke. The high content validity found in this study supports the reliability of the SRSS as a screening tool. In the future, implementing such validated scales in clinical practice can improve early intervention strategies, ultimately enhancing health outcomes and optimizing the use of healthcare resources.

评估新脑卒中风险筛查量表的内容相关性和代表性。
中风是全球死亡和残疾的主要原因。早期全面的风险识别对于识别脑卒中高危人群至关重要。本研究旨在评估新的脑卒中风险筛查量表(SRSS)中的每个问题,并评估各领域的内容相关性和代表性。首先邀请了六位脑卒中专家对 SRSS 的问题进行评估。然后计算内容效度指数(CVI),包括项目效度指数(I-CVI)和平均效度指数(Ave-CVI)。在我们的研究中,I-CVI 和 Ave-CVI 的可接受标准分别为≥0.78 和≥0.9。结果显示,所有受邀专家都接受了邀请,并对 SRSS 问题进行了评估。上一版本的 SRSS 包括 33 个问题。其中 30 个问题的 I-CVI 值≥0.78,表明内容效度良好。有 3 个问题的 I-CVI 为 0.67,被认为是无效的,因此被删除。整个工具的平均 CVI 值为 0.95。全面的 SRSS 对有效的脑卒中预防规划至关重要。这些量表有助于早期识别脑卒中高危人群,从而减少脑卒中的发病率和影响。本研究中发现的高内容效度支持了 SRSS 作为筛查工具的可靠性。未来,在临床实践中实施此类经过验证的量表可以改善早期干预策略,最终提高健康结果并优化医疗资源的使用。
