Abstract

Introduction and hypothesis: The purpose of this study is to assess the validity and reliability of a retrospective quality-of-life (QOL) assessment.

Methods: The Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-30) and the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12) were self-administered pre-operatively. At 3 months post-op, the IIQ-30 and SF-12 surveys were mailed to patients to reassess their pre-operative QOL status. Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to test the validity and reliability of the recalled IIQ and SF-12 scores.

Results: Recall validity was excellent for the IIQ-30 (r = 0.64) and moderate for the SF-12 (r = 0.46 (physical component summary or PCS) and 0.42 (mental component summary or MCS)). Recall reliability was moderate with the IIQ-30 (ICC = 0.62) and poor with the SF-12 (ICC = 0.44 (PCS) and 0.49 (MCS)).

Conclusions: The IIQ-30 can be reliably used in a retrospective manner among women who have undergone surgery for SUI 3 months earlier.

压力性尿失禁手术妇女生活质量评估回忆的准确性。

前言和假设:本研究的目的是评估回顾性生活质量(QOL)评估的效度和可靠性。方法:术前自行填写尿失禁影响问卷(IIQ-30)和简易健康问卷(SF-12)。术后3个月，将IIQ-30和SF-12问卷邮寄给患者，重新评估患者术前生活质量状况。采用Pearson相关系数(r)和class内相关系数(ICC)检验召回IIQ和SF-12分数的效度和信度。结果:IIQ-30的回忆效度为优秀(r = 0.64)， SF-12的回忆效度为中等(r = 0.46(物理成分总结或PCS)和0.42(精神成分总结或MCS))。IIQ-30的回忆信度中等(ICC = 0.62)， SF-12的回忆信度较差(ICC = 0.44 (PCS)和0.49 (MCS))。结论:IIQ-30可以可靠地用于3个月前接受SUI手术的女性的回顾性分析。
