Abstract:
Objective To test the reliability and validity of the home care demand forecasting scale for fracture patients when they were before discharge. Methods This study was descriptive study. Convenience sampling was used and 412 patients with fracture from 5 comprehensive hospitals in Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture were selected. Finally, the number of valid questionnaires is 398 which were used for testing. Results Five factors and 32 items were eventually determined. The split-half reliability coefficient was 0.910, and split-half coefficient in each dimension was over 0.75; the content validity showed scale level content validity index(S-CVI) was 0.948, and the index in each item′s item level content validity index (I-CVI) was between 0.76 to 1.00. The result of factor analysis included 5 factors and the cumulative contribution of variance was 59.181%. The result of construct validity χ2/df=1.554, root mean square error approximation (RMSEA)=0.037, goodness-of-fit index (GFI)=0.920. The total of scale′s Cronbach coefficient was 0.948, Each dimension′s Cronbach coefficient was between 0.797-0.875. Conclusions The home care demand forecasting scale was proved to be reliable and valid. It can be used to assess the home-care needs of fracture patients before they were discharge.
