Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Turkish translation of the Pelvic Pain Impact Questionnaire(PPIQ-T).
Material and Methods: This study was conducted with 110 female patients (mean age of 43.67±11.71years), who were being treated as inpatients or outpatients in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. Necessary permission for PPIQ was obtained and translation procedures were applied in terms of cultural adaptation. Test-retest and internal consistency were used for reliability. The correlation between the McGill Pain Instrument(MPQ) and the Short Form-36(SF-36) was looked at to determine the construct validity of the questionnaire. Additionally, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to test the factorial validity of the PPIQ.
Results: Test-retest reliability's intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC) was 0.95, while the Cronbach alpha value was 0.92. Significant correlation was determined between PPIQ and SF-36 questionnaires (r= 0.62-0.78, p<0.001), and MPQ (r=0.85, p<0.001). The KMO coefficient was 0.87, according to exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Confirmatory Factor Analysis(CFA) values were found Chi-Square as 31.142, df as 18, RMSEA as 0.08, and p<0.05.
Conclusion: The study's results indicated that the PPIQ-T can be utilized to evaluate patients with CPP in a variety of contexts and for treatment planning.
