Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the translation, cross-cultural fit, and psychometric properties of the ICU-specific pressure injury risk scale

Detailed description

This was a prospective, cross-sectional study aimed at translation and cultural adaptation of the RAPS-ICU into Turkish, while also assessing its validity and reliability.Patients who meet the inclusion criteria and who are hospitalized in the Intensive Care Clinics of Istinye University Bahçeşehir Liv Hospital and Harran University Hospital will participate in the study. In this study, Turkish adaptation of the 'Intensive care unit-specific pressure injury risk assessment scale' is planned. After language adaptation, its validity and reliability will be tested. The reliability of the intensive care unit-specific pressure injury risk assessment scale will be assessed by inter-rater reliability and internal consistency (determined by calculating Cronbach alpha coefficient), and its validity will be assessed by convergent and divergent validity of the scale. Relative reliability was obtained by calculating the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Relative reliability will be obtained by calculating the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The receiver operator characteristics (ROC) curve has been used to estimate sensitivity and specificity and will represent the false positive rate versus the true positive rate across various thresholds for different scores.
