The reliability and validity were tested in 147 patients with atrial fibrillation from January to June in 2020 in Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine.Results:The Chinese version retained 20 items of the original questionnaire,with the item content validity index of 0.857-1.000 and the average scale content validity index of 0.85. The Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.812 and test-retest coefficient was 0.781.Conclusions:The Chinese version of AKT has been proved to be valid and reliable, which can be used to assess anticoagulation knowledge of patients with atrial fibrillation.
