Construction of An Evaluation Index System of Information Requirement for Elderly Patients with Chronic Diseases and Frailty and Its Reliability and Validity Testing
Objective To construct an evaluation index system of information requirement for hospitalized elderly patients with chronic diseases and frailty and test its reliability and validity,so as to provide an effective tool in this field.Methods The evaluation index system of information requirement for such patients was constructed using 2 rounds of Delphi method based on literature analysis and qualitative interviews,and then a questionnaire was utilized to investigate 300 patients to test the reliability and validity.Results The system included 3 first-level indicators(re-quirement of physiological information,psychological information and social information),11 second-level indicators and 53 third-level ones.The Cronbach's a coefficient of the index system was 0.939.After two rounds of correspondence its S-CVI were 0.908 and 0.923 and the correlation coefficient between the first level indicators and whole index system was 0.653-0.971.Conclusions The index system has objective,systematic and good reliability and validity,which can be used for assessing the information requirement of elderly patients with chronic diseases and frailty during hospitalization.
