| Abstract | Uvod: V slovenskem prostoru primanjkuje veljavnih in zanesljivih instrumentov merjenja napak pri dajanju zdravil, zato je namen te raziskave ugotoviti vsebinsko veljavnost in zanesljivost slovenske različice vprašalnika Napake pri dajanju zdravil. Metode: Uporabili smo prevod in vzvratni prevod. Vsebinsko veljavnost smo ugotavljali na osnovi strinjanja osmih strokovnjakov. Izračunali smo indekse vsebinske veljavnosti in modificiran Cohenov kapa indeks. S presečno opazovalno raziskavo smo z vzorcem 91 zaposlenih na kirurških ali internih oddelkih, ugotavljali notranjo zanesljivost vprašalnika. Izračunali smo koeficient Cronbach alfa in preverili popravljene korelacije posamezne postavke z njeno lestvico. Rezultati: Indeksi vsebinske veljavnosti posamezne postavke so za 64 trditev znašali od 0,875 do 1,000, kapa indeksi pa več kot 0,740. Dve trditvi sta bilo ocenjeni z indeksom vsebinske veljavnosti 0,750 in zmernim kapa indeksom 0,560. Indeksi vsebinske veljavnosti treh glavnih delov vprašalnika so znašali od 0,940 do 0,959. Cronbach alfa teh treh sklopov je znašal od 0,832 do 0,989. Popravljene korelacije posamezne postavke z njeno lestvico pri vzrokih za napake in vzrokih za ne sporočanje so z izjemo ene trditve dosegle zahtevan kriterij. Diskusija in zaključek: Potrjujemo sprejemljivo vsebinsko veljavnost in notranjo zanesljivost vprašalnika, vendar je rezultate raziskave potrebno interpretirati s pazljivostjo. Potrebno je nadaljnje psihometrično testiranje vprašalnika.Introduction: In Slovenia there is a lack of valid and reliable instruments for measuring medication administration errors. The aim of research is to determine the content validity and internal reliability of the Slovenian version of the ''Medication Administration Error Survey''. Methods: We used the translation and back translation tested the questionnaire for its content validity on the basis of an agreement of eight experts. Content validity was quantified by the content validity index and a modified Cohen kappa index. A cross-sectional design, with a convenience sample of 91 caregivers working in internal or surgical wards in two health care institutions, was used to test the internal consistency by calculating Cronbach's alpha and corrected item-total correlations. Results: 64 items showed an excellent content validity index, ranging from 0.875 to 1.000, and modified kappa index over 0.740. Two items had a content validity index 0.750 and modified kappa index 0.560. The average content validity index for three main parts of the questionnaire ranged from 0.940 to 0.959. Cronbach's alpha for these three parts ranged from 0.832 to 0.989. The corrected item-total correlations reached a required criterion for all items, except one. Discussion and conclusion: Instrument has an acceptable content validity and internal reliability, however, due to some methodological shortcomings results should be interpreted with caution. Further psychometric testing is needed. | |
