摘要
目的:评价COMFORTneo-Brazil量表的收敛构效度、量表内信度和量表间信度以及量表内部一致性。研究设计:研究对象为24 - 42周胎龄的新生儿。通过比较COMFORTneo-Brazil得分与Échelle Douleur nouveau - n (EDIN)量表的得分来分析收敛结构效度。两名训练有素的评分员进行床边评估和视频评估,间隔10-14天,以评估评分员内部和内部的可靠性。分析采用Spearman相关、线性加权kappa、类内相关系数(ICC)、Bland-Altman图和Cronbach’s alpha。结果:共进行了133次评价。COMFORTneo-Brazil与EDIN评分之间有极好的收敛效度(rho = 0.929; p 0.9)。内部一致性也很高(Cronbach’s alpha = 0.858)。结论:COMFORTneo-Brazil是一种有效和可靠的评估新生儿长期疼痛的工具。
Validation and reliability of a scale for prolonged pain assessment in Brazilian neonates.
To evaluate the convergent construct validity, intra- and inter-rater reliability, and internal consistency of the COMFORTneo-Brazil scale.
Study design: The study included neonates between 24 and 42 weeks of gestational age. Convergent construct validity was analyzed by comparing COMFORTneo-Brazil scores with those from the Échelle Douleur Inconfort Nouveau-Né (EDIN) scale. Two trained raters performed bedside evaluations and video assessments, separated by 10-14 days, to assess intra- and inter-rater reliability. Spearman's correlation, linear weighted kappa, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), Bland-Altman plots, and Cronbach's alpha were used in the analysis.
Results: One hundred and thirty-three evaluations were conducted. There was excellent convergent validity between COMFORTneo-Brazil and EDIN scores (rho = 0.929; p < 0.001). The COMFORTneo-Brazil demonstrated excellent intra- and inter-rater reliability (ICC > 0.9). Internal consistency was also high (Cronbach's alpha = 0.858).
Conclusions: The COMFORTneo-Brazil is a valid and reliable tool for prolonged pain assessment in neonates.
