The Spanish version of the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation outcome measure : Cross-cultural adaptation process, reliability, measurement error and construct validity
(2017) In Health and Quality of Life Outcomes 15(1).- Abstract
Background: The Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) is a widely used measure of patient-reported disability and pain related to wrist disorders. We performed cross-cultural adaptation of the PRWE into Spanish (Spain) and assessed reliability and construct validity in patients with distal radius fracture. Methods: Adaptation of the English version to Spanish (Spain) was performed using translation/back translation methodology. The measurement properties of the PRWE-Spanish were assessed in a sample of 40 consecutive patients (31 women), mean age 58 (SD 19) years, with extra-articular distal radius fractures treated with closed reduction and cast. The patients completed the PRWE-Spanish and the standard Spanish versions of the 11-item... (More)
Background: The Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) is a widely used measure of patient-reported disability and pain related to wrist disorders. We performed cross-cultural adaptation of the PRWE into Spanish (Spain) and assessed reliability and construct validity in patients with distal radius fracture. Methods: Adaptation of the English version to Spanish (Spain) was performed using translation/back translation methodology. The measurement properties of the PRWE-Spanish were assessed in a sample of 40 consecutive patients (31 women), mean age 58 (SD 19) years, with extra-articular distal radius fractures treated with closed reduction and cast. The patients completed the PRWE-Spanish and the standard Spanish versions of the 11-item Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) and EQ-5D questionnaires at baseline (health status before fracture) and at 8, 9, 12, and 13weeks after treatment. Internal-consistency reliability was assessed with the Cronbach alpha coefficient and test-retest reliability with the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) comparing responses at 8 and 9weeks and responses at 12 and 13weeks. Cross-sectional precision was analyzed with the Standard Error of the Measurement (SEM). Longitudinal precision for test-retest reliability coefficient was analyzed with the Standard Error of the Measurement difference (SEMdiff) and the Minimal Detectable Change at 90% (MDC90) and 95% (MDC95) confidence levels. For assessing construct validity we hypothesized that the PRWE-Spanish (lower score indicates less disability and pain) would have strong positive correlation with the QuickDASH (lower score indicates less disability) and moderate negative correlation with the EQ-5D Index (higher score indicates better health); Spearman correlation coefficient (r) was used. Results: For the PRWE total score, Cronbach alpha was 0.98 (SEM=2.67) at baseline and 0.96 (SEM=4.37) at 8weeks. For test-retest reliability ICC was 0.94 (8 and 9weeks) and 0.96 (12 and 13weeks) with SEMdiff 7.61 and 6.18 and MDC95 13.74 and 12.11, respectively. The PRWE-Spanish scores had strong positive correlation with the QuickDASH scores at baseline (r=0.71) and at 8weeks (r=0.79) and moderate negative correlation with the EQ-5D Index (r=-0.44 and r=-0.40, respectively). Conclusions: The PRWE-Spanish showed high internal-consistency and test-retest reliability and good construct validity in patients with distal radius fracture.
