This paper describes the translation of CROQ for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) into Gujarati and evaluating its psychometric properties.
Aim: To translate and validate the Gujarati version of CROQ-PCI
Methods: Forward and Backward Translation of CROQ for PCI was done. The Gujarati version of CROQ was then administered to 139 pre and post-operative subjects of PCI. The post-operative subjects were 4 weeks post-op.
Results: The mean of the age pre-op group was 56.6 years whereas that of post-op group was 57.85 years. All the items had <10% missing items. The CROQ-Gujarati version showed good acceptability, reliability and construct validity for within scale analysis. Face and Content validity were established by the expert group.
