Abstract:
Objective To test the reliability and validity of ICF Core Sets for Chinese COPD patients.Methods Fifty-two COPD patients were measured with ICF Core Sets for COPD patients and SF-36. For reliability test, the internal consistency was analyzed and expressed by Cronbach α coefficients and split-half reliability. For va-lidity test, the content validity and criterion validity were analyzed and expressed with Spearman rank correlation coef-ficients. Results For body function, body structure and activity and participation, there were good internal consis-tency (Cronbach α coefficients 0. 698～0.957). For environmental factors Crnnbach α coefficient and split-half reli-ability did not exist. Most items of body function, activity and participation and body structure possessed good content validity. There was concurrent validity for ICF components of body function, body structure and activity and participa-tion with SF-36, FEV1/FVC, COPD grade and health self-assessment. The environmental factors demonstrated poor reliability and validity. Conclusion The ICF Core Sets for COPD patients showed good reliability and validity. It is a good comprehensive functional measurement scale for COPD patients, but it is necessary to test the generality of this result, and some items need to be adjusted.
