Background:
There are no validated tools to examine the risk and benefits of family presence and nurses' self-confidence during resuscitation in Turkey.
Aim:
This study aimed to test the validity and reliability of the family presence risk- benefit scale and the family presence self-confidence scale in Turkish as well as its psychometric characteristics.
Methods:
The sample of the study consisted of 427 nurses. The forward-backward translation method was used. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to examine the factor structure and construct validity of the scales. In order to evaluate the time invariances of the scales, the relationship between the scores obtained from the first and second applications was examined using the Pearson correlation coefficient.
Results:
The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin measure of sampling adequacy (KMO) value of the family presence risk-benefit scale was found to be 0.876 while the KMO value of the family presence self-confidence scale was found to be 0.927. Positive linear correlations with high levels of significance and respective values of 82.5% and 93.5% were found between the total scores of the family presence risk-benefit and family presence self-confidence scales and their retest scores.
Conclusion:
The Turkish versions of the family presence during resuscitation risk- benefit scale and the family presence self-confidence scale were found to be valid and reliable tools that could be used to determine the perceptions of nurses regarding the risks and benefits of family presence during resuscitation.
Relevance To Clinical Practice:
Using the family presence risk-benefit and family presence self-confidence scales, both of which have been tested for validity and reliability in Turkish, the perceptions of intensive care nurses regarding the risks and benefits of family presence during resuscitation can be determined as well as their self-confidence on the subject, making the development of policies on the subject possible.
