Translation and validation of the Italian version of the European Heart Failure Self-care Behaviour Scale

Abstract: The EHFScBS appears to be a valid and reliable instrument in the Italian version also. Self-care behaviour appears to depend on age and sex and a previous HF education. Mild to moderately impaired cognitive function seems to influence self-care in patients who have already received HF education.

“…On the other hand, it was 0.70 in an Brasilian study and 0.67 in an Japanese study (33,36). Internal consistency of the Turkish version of EHFScBS appears to be similar to that found in the studies from other countries (34,37). These results suggest that Turkish version of the EHFScBS is similar to the original scale and it may be used in Turkey for the assessment of Turkish patients.…”

“…28 Subsequently in a study with 99 Italian patients diagnosed with CHF, there was statistically significant differences in self-care scores between patients who had or had not received intensive educational strategies (20.9 T 4 vs 28.9 T 6, P G .001). 57 In addition, global scores on EHFScBS improved over a 15-month period of follow-up in a CHF outpatient clinic (P G .001). 58 This indicates that the EHFScBS is able to discriminate between patients who or have not received patient education and support strategies.…”
