Validation of the Hungarian version of the Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ).

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ) is a self-administered, reliable and valid instrument which assess knowledge regarding urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. There is no validated Hungarian version of this questionnaire; therefore the aim of this study was to develop a reliable, valid and culturally sensitive Hungarian version of the PIKQ.

Study design

A cross-sectional study was conducted from March to October 2022 with a sample of 459 women. The PIKQ, which consists of the urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse scales, was translated into Hungarian in accordance with international guidelines. The validity and reliability of the final version of the Hungarian PIKQ was evaluated using construct validity, comparison with known-groups, internal consistency and test-retest reliability.

Results

Regarding construct validity, all fit indices were found acceptable. Healthcare workers had significantly higher knowledge about urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse (p < 0.001) compared to women who had not worked in a medical field. The Hungarian PIKQ had an adequate internal consistency with Cronbach alpha of 0.785 for the urinary incontinence scale and 0.826 for the pelvic organ prolapse scale. The correlation coeffcients between the test and retest was 0.931 for the urinary incontinence scale and 0.964 for the pelvic organ prolapse scale.

Conclusion

The Hungarian version of the PIKQ is a reliable and valid tool to measure the level of knowledge about urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse among Hungarian speaking women.

Project description:BackgroundHome mechanical ventilation is a reliable treatment for patients suffering from chronic respiratory failure, improving survival and quality of life. Prevalence has been increasing worldwide as a result of evolving technical possibilities, telemedicine and improving national guidelines. Projects to establish a national guideline and registry for patients treated with home mechanical ventilation are currently under way in Hungary and our aim was to validate a quality of life questionnaire suited for evaluation and follow up in this specific patient group. The Severe Respiratory Insufficiency Questionnaire (SRI) is a quality of life tool designed to evaluate patients receiving home mechanical ventilation and has been validated both in patient groups receiving invasive and noninvasive ventilation.MethodsThe Hungarian version of the SRI was created using the translation-backtranslation method, which was then tested for validity, viability and reliability in a cohort involving patients from three centers, receiving long-term home mechanical ventilation for chronic respiratory failure through an invasive or noninvasive interface. Patient data was collected (demographic data, lung function test, arterial blood gas, ventilation settings) and quality of life was measured with the previously validated SF-36 and newly created Hungarian SRI Questionnaires at two time points.ResultsOne hundred four patients receiving home mechanical ventilation were enrolled. The time to complete the SRI Questionnaire was 8.6 (±3.1) minutes, 69.2% questionnaires were self-administered. Exploratory factor analysis explained 73.8% of the variance of the questionnaire, but resulted in 13 scales. We found correlations between the SRI subscale scores to corresponding scales of the previously validated general quality of life survey SF-36. The Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.928 for the Summary Scale of the SRI Questionnaire, proving high internal consistency. Reproducibility was high for most scales, resulting in a high overall correlation for the summary score (0.877, p < 0.001).ConclusionsThe Hungarian version of the SRI Questionnaire is a viable, valid, reliable and reproduceable quality of life tool applicable for patients treated with home mechanical ventilation.

Project description:BackgroundTo our knowledge, there is currently no psychometrically validated Hungarian scale to evaluate nurses' knowledge about infection prevention and control (IPC) practices. Thus, we aim in this study to assess the validity and reliability of the infection control standardized questionnaire Hungarian version (ICSQ-H).MethodsA cross-sectional, multisite study was conducted among 591 nurses in Hungary. The original ICSQ included 25 questions. First, the questionnaire was translated into Hungarian. Then, content validity was assessed by a committee of four specialists. This was done by calculating the item content validity index and scale content validity index. Afterward, structural validity was evaluated in a two-step process using principal component analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The goodness of fit for the model was measured through fit indices. Convergent validity was assessed by calculating the average variance extracted. Additionally, discriminant validity was evaluated by computing the Spearman correlation coefficient between the factors. Finally, the interitem correlations, the corrected item-total correlations, and the internal consistency were calculated.ResultsThe content validity of the questionnaire was established with 23 items. The final four-factor ICSQ-H including 10 items showed a good fit model. Convergent validity was met except for the alcohol-based hand rub (ABHR) factor, while discriminant validity was met for all factors. The interitem correlations and the corrected item-total correlations were met for all factors, but the internal consistency of ABHR was unsatisfactory due to the low number of items.ConclusionsThe results did not support the original three-factor structure of the ICSQ. However, the four-factor ICSQ-H demonstrated an adequate degree of good fit and was found to be reliable. Based on our findings, we believe that the ICSQ-H could pave the way for more research regarding nurses' IPC knowledge to be conducted in Hungary. Nevertheless, its validation among other healthcare workers is important to tailor effective interventions to enhance knowledge and awareness.
