Italian version of qualiveen‐30: Cultural adaptation of a neurogenic urinary disorder‐specific instrument

Abstract

Italian Qualiveen-30 is a reliable, valid, and responsive measure of UD-related HRQL in SPI patients. Investigators can be confident of the Qualiveen-30 questionnaire's ability in distinguishing between patients in a cross-sectional survey, as well as in measuring within-subject changes over time in clinical trials in French, English, and Italian.

Quality of life of multiple sclerosis patients: Translation and validation of the Spanish version of qualiveen

“…Finally, all the Qualiveen scores correlated with the ICIQ‐SF final score. These results are consistent with those encountered in other Qualiveen validation studies 22, 23…”

Bringing together the sufficient number of patients for carrying out a validation study might be difficult, especially when dealing with severe diseases such as MS or SCI.…”

The urinary‐specific quality of life of multiple sclerosis patients: Dutch translation and validation of the SF‐Qualiveen

It was developed and validated in French for both spinal cord injury and MS patients 4,7 and underwent successful cross-cultural adaptation into English, 8 German, 9 Italian, 10 Portuguese, 11 and Spanish. 12 The SF-Qualiveen with eight questions proved to have good measurement properties in MS patients and is currently available in French and English.…”

Patient reported outcomes measures in neurogenic bladder and bowel: A systematic review of the current literature
