Abstract:
Objective:To develop the Nutrition Impact Symptom Scale for Colorectal Cancer Patients.Methods:Guided by the theory of unpleasant symptoms, the initial draft of the scale was formed through literature research, expert consultation, and small sample pre-survey. From March to May 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 127 colorectal cancer patients who visited Jiangsu Cancer Hospital as the research subject for item analysis and reliability and validity testing of the scale.Results:The final scale consisted of five dimensions and a total of 17 items. The content validity index of the scale was from 0.83 to 1.00, with an average content validity index of 0.97. Exploratory factor analysis extracted five common factors, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 61.622%. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.708, and the coefficients for each dimension were 0.762, 0.642, 0.625, 0.510, and 0.644, respectively. The half reliability coefficient of the scale was 0.824.Conclusions:The development process of the Nutrition Impact Symptom Scale for Colorectal Cancer Patients is scientific, with good reliability and validity, and can be used to evaluate the nutrition impact symptom of colorectal cancer patients.
