“…O WHOQOL-HIV Bref avalia a qualidade de vida com base em aspectos específicos de pessoas vivendo com HIV/AIDS e tem se mostrado válido e confiável para esse fim (Meemon et al, 2016;Pereira, Martins, Alves & Canavarro, 2014;Salehi, Niroumand, Erfanian, Sajjadi & Dadgarmoghaddam, 2016;Zhu, Liu & Qu, 2017). A análise das propriedades psicométricas deste instrumento é fundamental devido os desafios para a interpretação das questões diante das diversidades culturais (Meemon et al, 2016).…”

“…Neste estudo foi observada a presença da validade discriminante do WHOQOL-HIV Bref, também verificada em estudos anteriores internacionais (Canavarro & Pereira, 2011;Meemon et al, 2016;Pereira et al, 2014;WHO, 2003, Zhu et al, 2017. O instrumento mostrou-se eficaz em predizer a percepção dos sujeitos estudados, em escores, sobre a qualidade de vida geral e em relação à grande parte dos domínios considerados.…”

“…Em estudo realizado com 329 pacientes tailandeses não foi encontrada diferença significativa na QVRS entre grupos com diferentes contagens de células CD4 + . O subgrupo com história de infecção oportunista apresentou uma maior QVRS em relação àqueles na fase de latência (Meemon et al, 2016). Pesquisa realizada em três províncias chinesas mostrou que indivíduos com menor contagem de células CD4 + tiveram escores mais baixos e estatisticamente significantes para todos os domínios.…”

Resumo Objetivo: Avaliar as propriedades psicométricas do questionário WHOQOL-HIV Bref em pessoas com HIV/AIDS. Método: O instrumento foi aplicado a 226 pessoas com HIV/AIDS do Norte de Minas Gerais. As propriedades psicométricas foram avaliadas pela validade de construto, análise da confiabilidade e validade de critério. Resultados: O modelo com seis domínios apresentou ajustamento aceitável (χ2/gl= 1,77, p <0,001, GFI = 0,85, CFI= 0,89, RMSEA = 0,058 ). O WHOQOL-HIV Bref apresentou correlações estatisticamente significativas entre os seis domínios, consistência interna e reprodutibilidade satisfatórias. Os escores dos domínios demonstraram correlação significativa com o escore da qualidade de vida geral e dos itens que avaliam a autopercepção da qualidade de vida e da saúde, correlação significativa com o resultado global da depressão e diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre subgrupos de pacientes segundo variáveis socioeconômicas e clínicas. Conclusões: O WHOQOL-HIV Bref apresentou-se válido, confiável para medir a qualidade de vida de pessoas com HIV/AIDS.

“…Hasil tersebut juga tidak jauh berbeda dengan penelitian di Bangladesh (56,1%), Taiwan (60,9%), dan Malaysia (59,9%). [8][9][10][11] Di Thailand, sebanyak 33,1% responden terdiagnosis HIV pada 6-10 tahun yang lalu. Jika dibandingkan dengan Malaysia, cara penularan HIV pada responden sebagian besar yaitu melalui hubungan sesksual dengan lawan jenis (55,4%).…”

Pendahuluan. Kualitas hidup terkait kesehatan selama pasien menderita HIV dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu indikator keberhasilan terapi yang telah diberikan. Salah satu instrumen untuk menilai kualitas hidup pasien adalah kuesioner WHOQOL-HIV BREF yang telah digunakan di berbagai negara, namun belum pernah diuji kesahihan dan keandalannya di Indonesia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji kesahihan dan keandalan kuesioner WHOQOL-HIV BREF dalam bahasa Indonesia sebagai alat untuk mengukur kualitas hidup pada pasien HIV/AIDS. Metode. Penelitian potong lintang dilakukan di Poliklinik khusus HIV Rumah Sakit dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo (POKDISUS RSCM) Jakarta pada bulan November 2016. Sampel diambil secara konsekutif. Penelitian dilakukan dalam dua tahap yaitu tahap awal yang merupakan proses adaptasi bahasa dan budaya dan tahap akhir yaitu uji kesahihan dan keandalan dari kuesioner. Hasil. Sebanyak 56 responden ikut serta dalam penelitian ini dan diketahui bahwa 69,6% di antaranya adalah laki-laki. Melalui pendekatan multi-trait scaling analysis, didapatkan nilai koefisien korelasi yang tinggi terhadap skor total domainnya, sehingga dapat dikatakan kuesioner tersebut memiliki kesahihan yang baik. Uji korelasi antardomain kuesioner WHOQOL-HIV BREF dan domain kuesioner SF-36 menunjukkan bahwa terdapat enam domain yang signifikan bermakna (p <0,005) dengan nilai koefisien korelasi kuat (r= 0,60-0,79). Keandalan kuesioner dinilai dengan intraclass correlation coefficient masing-masing domain 0,401-0,484 dan nilai Cronbach Alpha 0,513-0,798. Simpulan. Kuesioner WHOQOL-HIV BREF dalam bahasa Indonesia sahih dan andal.

“…(22). This instrument has not been translated into Urdu, although it has been translated into many other languages (18,(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32). Hence, the current study aimed to assess the psychometric properties and cultural adaptability of the Urdu version of WHOQOL-HIV Bref in PLWHA in Pakistan.…”

ObjectiveThe Low Middle Income Countries (LMIC) like Pakistan are facing an escalation in the number of HIV cases, approximately more than 180,000 people are currently living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Currently, no HIV specific Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) tool is validated in Pakistan; therefore, the current analysis was aimed at translating and examining the psychometric properties of the Urdu version of WHOQOL HIV BREF among HIV patients of Pakistan.MethodsThe standard forward-backwards translation technique was used for Urdu translation of the instrument. Based on the principle of 5 subjects minimally for each item, a sample of 182 patients were recruited by employing a universal random sampling technique. Data were analysed to measure reliability, internal consistency, known-group, multivariable linear regression and construct validity. Results High internal consistency 0.93 (Cronbach alpha) was found for all WHOQOL HIV Bref facets. The test-retest reliability analysis demonstrated a statistically significant Interclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) ranged from 0.88 – 0.98 (p < 0.001). In known group validity, lower CD-4 lymphocytes count was significantly related to poor scores for all six domains (p < 0.001). Similarly, symptomatic subjects had significantly lower scores compared to asymptomatic subjects on the physical, psychological, social relationship and independence domains (p < 0.05). Results also revealed a statistically significant positive correlation of all six domains with CD4 count (p < 0.001), exhibiting patients with higher CD-4 lymphocytes count will have higher mean scores of all six domains. Factor analysis revealed 5 domains, including Physical health, Psychological health, Social relationship, Environmental, and Spiritual health. When all domains were assessed together via Multivariable linear regression analysis; only physical, psychological health and environment health domains were found significantly associated with higher CD-4 lymphocytes count (Beta = 0.121, p < 0.001, Beta = 0.103, p = 0.002, and Beta = 0.032, p = 0.032).ConclusionFindings suggested that the Urdu version of WHOQOL HIV Bref is a psychometrically valid tool for measuring HRQoL.
