Summary

This study aims to evaluate the Turkish validity and reliability of the Hospital for Special Surgery Shoulder Surgery Expectations Survey. By translating the original survey into Turkish and administering it to a sample of patients who have undergone shoulder surgery, the research seeks to determine whether the survey maintains its accuracy and consistency in the Turkish context. The study will involve statistical analyses to assess the survey's reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity, ensuring that the tool is culturally appropriate and effective for Turkish-speaking patients.

Detailed description

The process begins with the translation of the original survey into Turkish, followed by a back-translation to ensure accuracy. The adapted survey is then reviewed by a panel of experts to confirm its cultural relevance and clarity. Once finalized, the Turkish version of the survey is administered to a cohort of Turkish-speaking patients who have undergone shoulder surgery. Participants complete the survey at a designated time point, typically postoperatively, to assess their expectations and outcomes related to the surgery. The collected data are then analyzed to evaluate the survey's reliability (internal consistency, test-retest reliability) and validity (content, construct, and criterion validity) within this specific population. The goal of the intervention is to ensure that the Turkish version of the survey is a reliable and valid tool for assessing patient expectations and satisfaction following shoulder surgery, making it suitable for use in clinical practice and research in Turkey.
