Overview

Observational study analyzes psychometric properties of a new scale for chronic heart failure, suggesting valuable patient insights.

Key Points

  • The study aims to validate the Spanish version of a scale measuring experiences of living with chronic heart failure.
  • Conducted a multicenter, cross-sectional observational study.
  • Included 299 patients with chronic heart failure from five hospitals.
  • Analyzed data quality, acceptability, and reliability using classical test theory and item response theory.
  • The scale includes 30 items and five dimensions.
  • Cronbach's alpha values ranged from 0.73 to 0.85, indicating good reliability.
  • Intraclass correlation coefficients ranged from 0.79 to 0.87, supporting consistency over time.
