Developing a Scale for Home-Visit Nurses to Start End-of-life Discussions with Cancer Patients.
Context: Home-visit nurses find it challenging to determine the appropriate time to initiate end-of-life discussions with cancer patients.
Objective: This study aimed to develop the Timing of End-of-Life Discussions (T-EOLD) scale to help home-visit nurses determine the appropriate time to initiate end-of-life discussions with cancer patients and to test its reliability and validity.
Methods: The scale items were developed based on qualitative data extracted from interviews, literature reviews, and expert panel discussions. We conducted a preliminary study involving 93 home-visit nurses and evaluated the construct validity, consistency, and test-retest reliability of the scale. Finally, using a sample of 234 home-visit nurses, we conducted the primary study and assessed the construct validity and scale consistency.
Results: A total of 41 items were initially developed. Floor effect, item-total correlation, good-poor, and exploratory factor analysis in the preliminary and primary studies yielded a three-factor, 16-item model. The model's goodness-of-fit was CFI = 0.94, GFI = 0.90, AGFI = 0.87, and RMSEA = 0.06. Cronbach's alpha for the overall scale was 0.91.
Conclusions: The reliability and validity of the T-EOLD is acceptable, as it is an appropriate scale that home-visit nurses can use to determine the time to initiate end-of-life discussions with cancer patients. However, further study is required to examine T-EOLD's clinical utility, both nationally and internationally.
