Reliability and Validity of the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist in Turkish

Abstract

Purpose

The aim was to investigate and evaluate validity and reliability of the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist (ICDSC) in Turkey.

Methods

A cross-sectional study design was used. Fifty-nine patients in an intensive care unit for longer than 24 hr were included in this study.

Results

Cronbach's alpha coefficient indicated that the ICDSC was a reliable test with high internal consistency (specialist nurse min: 0.720, max: 0.855; primary nurse min: 0.728, max: 0.830). The sensitivity and specifity were high.

Conclusion

The findings showed that the sensitivity and specificity of the ICDSC are high for Turkish patients.

Implications for Nursing Practice

The ICDSC provides fast and effective evaluations of the patients for delirium. So, ICDSC may be easily integrated into routine nursing practice.

Amaç

Yoğun Bakım Deliryum Kontrol Ölçeği (YBDKÖ)'nin Türkiye için geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin belirlenmesidir.

Method

Kesitsel çalışma dizaynının kullanıldığı bu çalışmada, yoğun bakımda 24 saatten uzun süreli kalan 59 hasta araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir.

Bulgular

Cronbach alfa katsayısı, yüksek iç tutarlılık katsayısı ile YBDKÖ'nin güvenilir bir test olduğunu gösterdi (uzman hemşire min: 0.720, max: 0.855, primer hemşire min:0.728, max:0.830). Sensivite ve spefisite yüksek bulunmuştur.

Sonuç

Araştırmadan elde ettiğimiz bulgular Türk hastalar için YBDKÖ'nin sensivite ve spesifitesinin yüksek olduğunu göstermiştir.

Hemşirelik Uygulamalarina Yansimalari

YBDKÖ, hastaların deliryum yönünden hızlı ve etkili bir şekilde değerlendirilmesini sağlayacaktır. Bu nedenle YBDKÖ rutin hemşirelik uygulamalarına kolaylıkla entegre edilebilir.
