Abstract: (372 Views)
Background: Many survivors of intensive care units experience functional disabilities and significant
physical, mental, and perceptive impairments known as post-intensive care syndrome (PICS).
Objectives: This research intended to translate and examine the psychometric properties of the
Persian version of the healthy aging brain care monitor self-report (HABC-M-SR).
Materials & Methods: This methodological research was directed to ascertain the psychometric
properties of the Persian version of HABC-M-SR (p-HABC). This study was conducted in Ahvaz
City, Iran, in 2021. The HABC-M-SR was translated into Persian. Face validity, content validity index, and content validity ratio were
examined. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed on 500 samples. The
Cronbach α and interclass correlation coefficients were calculated to check the reliability.
Results: Regarding the quantitative and qualitative face and content validity assessments, all items
were suitable for further analysis, with a content validity index >0.79 and a content validity ratio
>0.62. Afterward, exploratory factor analysis was implemented on 270 subjects assuming that
three factors were constant on the questionnaire. Also, questions 7, 8, 9, and 12 were removed due
to low factor loading, and confirmatory factor analysis was performed on 23 questions. Finally,
230 samples were taken, and the results were almost within the acceptable range. The Cronbach α
(0.828) and interclass correlation coefficient (0.752) were satisfactory results.
Conclusion: The p-HABC showed acceptable psychometric properties and can be used to screen
for PICS. The p-HABC can trigger further studies on early diagnosis and management of PICS in
ICU survivors in Iran.
