Abstract
Abstract:
Objective: This study was conducted to adapt the revised Skin Management Needs Assessment Checklist (SMnac) into Turkish and determine the reliability and validity by using the Rasch model.
Methods: Data were collected between February and July 2023 from a total of 201 patients using a demographics and clinical history form, Braden Scale, and the revised SMnac. This methodological study used forward translation, expert opinion, back translation, pilot test, and finalization for the language adaptation of the instrument. The feasibility of the questionnaire for the Turkish population with pressure injury was assessed through the Rasch measurement model. Internal consistency reliability with Rasch analysis was calculated with the Person Reliability Index and Item Reliability Index. For content validity, the first Turkish version was evaluated by seven experts.
Results: The Content Validity Index of the Turkish version of the revised SMnac was determined to be 0.87. In the Rasch analysis, the person reliability coefficient was detected as 0.87 and the item reliability coefficient as 0.94. In accordance with the results of the adaptation and reliability validity analyses of the original scale, three items were excluded from the scale.
Conclusions: According to the results of the study, the revised SMnac scale was determined to be valid and reliable in Turkish.
