Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
  • Psychometrics
  • Quality of Life Research

Background:

  • Hemorrhoidal disease and anal fissure significantly impair quality of life.
  • Existing assessment tools in Spanish are lacking for these prevalent anal pathologies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To validate a Spanish version of the HEMO-FISS-Quality of Life Questionnaire (HEMO-FISS-QoL).
  • To adapt the questionnaire for clinical practice in Spanish-speaking populations.

Main Methods:

  • The HEMO-FISS-Quality of Life Questionnaire (HEMO-FISS-CdV) was developed as the Spanish adaptation.
  • Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and Guttman's split-half coefficient.
  • Correlation with the SF12v2 Health Questionnaire was performed.

Main Results:

  • The HEMO-FISS-CdV demonstrated high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha: 0.951).
  • The Guttman coefficient was 0.910, indicating good reliability.
  • Patients with hemorrhoids or anal fissure reported significantly higher scores (p < 0.05).

Conclusions:

  • Hemorrhoidal disease and anal fissure negatively impact patient quality of life.
  • The HEMO-FISS-CdV is a reliable and specific tool for assessing quality of life in Spanish-speaking patients with these conditions.
