Abstract:
Objective To evaluate content validity and construct validity of International Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health(ICF)Core Set for patients with organ transplantation.Methods Patients with kidney,liver,heart,or lung transplantation were assessed with ICF Core Set questionnaire,Functional Independence Measure(FIM)and Barthel Index(BI).Content validity was evaluated with frequency and percentage of patients with a problem for each ICF category,while construct validity was evaluated with Spearman correlation between ICF categories with FIM and BI.Results A consecutive sample of 102 patients completed this study.In body functions,10 categories were reported as a problem by more than 30% of the patients,of which 22 categories correlated significantly with FIM or BI.In body structures,structure areas of skin(s810)were reported as a problem by 30% of the patients,of which 3 categories correlated significantly with FIM or BI.In activities and participation,3 categories were reported as a problem by 30% of the patients,of which 15 categories correlated significantly with FIM and BI.In environmental factors,8 categories were reported as a facilitator by 30% of the patients,of which 8 categories correlated significantly with FIM or BI.Conclusion The content validity and construct validity of ICF Core Set for patients early after organ transplantation were good.
