Adaptación y validación de las escalas QPC "Quality in Psychiatric Care" en el ámbito de la hospitalización

[spa] INTRODUCCIÓN: Los países occidentales comparten cada vez más el interés en evaluar la calidad de la atención en el ámbito de la salud mental. Sin embargo, se sabe poco sobre cómo perciben la calidad de los cuidados, los pacientes y profesionales en unidades de hospitalización de psiquiatría. Son pocos los instrumentos que se conocen y que estén adecuadamente validados entorno a la calidad de la atención en el ámbito de la salud mental, y especialmente en el entorno hospitalario. Uno de los más relevantes es el “Quality in Psychiatric Care” (QPC). OBJETIVOS: Los objetivos generales fueron la traducción y adaptación al castellano de la escala “Quality in Psychiatric Care-Inpatient” (QPC-IP) y de la escala “Quality in Psychiatric Care-Staff” (QPC-IPS) y el análisis de las propiedades psicométricas. Otro objetivo fue analizar la invarianza configuracional de los ítems y las subescalas de los instrumentos utilizados. METODOLOGÍA: La investigación se organizó en tres estudios. La primera fase de los estudios 1 y 2 consistió en el proceso de traducción y retrotraducción de las escalas “Quality Psychiatric Care” del idioma sueco al castellano. En la segunda fase, para el estudio 1 (Spanish QPC-IP) se reclutaron 150 pacientes que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión: mayores de 18 años, diagnosticados de trastorno mental según la clasificación DSM-V y estar ingresados en el momento del estudio. En la segunda fase, para el estudio 2 (Spanish QPC-IPS) se reclutaron a 163 profesionales que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión: profesionales asistenciales que estaban activos laboralmente y que participaran voluntariamente en el estudio. El tipo de muestreo utilizado fue no probabilístico, dado que la población incluida en ambos estudios fueron los que voluntariamente quisieron participar. En el estudio 1 y 2 se realizó un análisis descriptivo de los ítems de las escalas y de las variables sociodemográficas y clínicas de la muestra. La fiabilidad se realizó analizando la consistencia interna y la estabilidad temporal, administrando la escala de nuevo a los 7-14 días. Se realizó el análisis de la correlación de la escala Spanish QPC-IP con el cálculo del coeficiente de correlación de Pearson con el fin de determinar la validez convergente y discriminante. Sin embargo, en el estudio 2, la validez convergente se analizó mediante el análisis de correlación de Spearman (rho) con la escala de satisfacción laboral de NTP 394 administradas al mismo tiempo. Posteriormente, se realizó un análisis factorial confirmatorio. Los análisis del estudio 3 se llevaron a cabo en una muestra total de 578 participantes (incluidos los pacientes suecos que completaron la Sweden QPC- IP). En la primera fase, se utilizó el análisis factorial confirmatorio y en la segunda fase, la estructura de medición fue confirmada a través del Modelo Exploratorio de Ecuaciones Estructurales (ESEM). Para el análisis estadístico de los datos del estudio 1 y 2 se utilizó el paquete estadístico IBM® SPSS® Statistics 22.0 y el EQS® versión 6.2. para el análisis factorial confirmatorio. Los estudios 1, 2 y 3 fueron aprobados por el Comité de Ética e Investigación Clínica de la Fundation Research de Sant Joan de Déu, CEIC PIC-128-15 de Barcelona (España).[eng] INTRODUCTION: Western countries are sharing increasing interest in evaluating and improving care quality in the setting of mental health. Nonetheless, little is known about how quality is perceived by patients and professionals in psychiatric inpatient units. There are a number of challenges, one of which is the fact that there is no general consensus on how to define quality, as it is considered a multidimensional concept. Secondly, unlike the concept of patient satisfaction, care quality includes the perspectives of all interested parties. OBJECTIVES: The general objectives were the translation and adaptation to Spanish of the “Quality in Psychiatric Care-Inpatient” (QPC-IP) questionnaire and of the Spanish of the “Quality in Psychiatric Care-Inpatient Staff” (QPC-IPS) and the analysis of psychometric properties in a sample of patients admitted to psychiatric inpatient units in two leading hospitals in the province of Barcelona (study 1 and study 2) . Study 3 analysed the configuration invariance of the items and domains of the instruments with the Swedish items and domains of the “Quality in Psychiatric Care-Inpatient” (Sweden QPC-IP) questionnaire. METHODOLOGY: The questionnaires underwent a process of transcultural adaptation to Spanish, and in the second phase a metric analysis of the questionnaires was conducted by means of a cross-sectional study. For study 1 (Spanish QPC-IP) 150 patients were recruited, all of whom met the established inclusion criteria: over 18 years of age, with a diagnosis of a mental disorder according to the DSM-V classification, and at the time of the study being an inpatient of one of the psychiatric units. In the second phase, for study 2 (Spanish QPC-IPS) a total of 163 professionals were recruited, all of whom met the following inclusion criteria: healthcare professionals, currently active, working in the psychiatric care units, and who wished to participate voluntarily in the study. The IBM® SPSS® Statistics 22.0 package was used for the statistical analysis of the data from studies 1 and 2, while EQS® 6.2 was used for the confirmatory factor analysis. In study 1 and in the study 2, a descriptive analysis of the items in the Spanish QPC-IP questionnaire and of the socio-demographic and clinical variables of the sample was conducted. Reliability was assessed by analysing internal consistency and temporal stability, after 7-14 days. The correlation analysis for the Spanish QPC-IP questionnaire was conducted with Pearson correlation coefficient, with the aim of determining the convergent and discriminant validity. In study 2, the convergent validity was analysed by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (rho) of the Spanish QPC-IPS with the NTP 394 job satisfaction questionnaire administered at the same time. A confirmatory factor analysis was performed. Study 3 was conducted in the first half of 2019. The total sample consisted of 578 participants. The configuration invariance study was conducted in two phases: in the first phase of the analysis, the confirmatory factor analysis was used; and in the second phase, the measuring structure was confirmed with the exploratory structural equation model (ESEM). Studies 1, 2 and 3 were approved by the Independent Ethics Committee of the Sant Joan de Déu Research Foundation CEIC PIC-128-15 of Barcelona (Spain). RESULTS: Study 1: the results of the first phase yielded an instrument adapted and translated into Spanish by a process of translation and back-translation by independent translators. A Cronbach's Alpha of 0,94 was obtained for the entire QPC-IP instrument and values of 0,52-0,89 for the dimensions of the questionnaire. The intraclass correlation coefficient for the QPC-IP questionnaire was 0,69, whilst values of 0,62-0,74 were obtained in the individual dimensions, indicating an acceptable level of temporal stability. In terms of convergent and discriminant validity, dimension D1 (Therapeutic relationship) and dimension D2 (Patient participation) were more strongly correlated with the overall questionnaire (r=0,902 and r=0,892, respectively), and the stronger correlation between the sub-questionnaires was represented by dimension D1 (Therapeutic relationship) and dimension D3 (Support received) (r=0,744). The confirmatory factor analysis for the Spanish QPC-IP questionnaire revealed that the six factors are identical to those of the original Swedish questionnaire and the model fit indices are adequate. Study 2: The result obtained in the first phase was satisfactory in all four stages. A Cronbach's Alpha of 0.92 was obtained for the entire instrument and values of 0,45-0,85 for the dimensions of the questionnaire. With regard to test- retest reliability, the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0,91, whilst in the individual dimensions, values of 0,68-0,89 were obtained, indicating a good level of temporal stability. The convergent validity showed a positive correlation (0,58) with the NTP 394 questionnaire. The confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the six factors are the same as those of the original Swedish questionnaire and showed good model fit. The results of the Spanish version show adequate results in terms of validity and reliability. Study 3: The first phase of study 3 shows that the confirmatory factor analysis of the latent model of the three groups individually does not have a good fit. Nevertheless, the model fit index for the group of Swedish patients is adequate. In the second phase, the ESEM analysis indicates a better model fit, although the group of Spanish patients and professionals obtains lower scores than the adequate fit. The factor loadings for each group were significant. Factor 3 (item 24) showed a greater factor loading in all three study samples. In contrast, factor 2 (items 1 and 14) showed a low factor loading. CONCLUSIONS: This research has made it possible to adapt and validate the Spanish QPC-IP and the Spanish QPC-IPS questionnaires. The purpose of these instruments is to measure care quality from the perspective of patients admitted to psychiatric inpatient units and from the perspective of mental healthcare professionals in hospital settings

Spanish adaptation of the quality in psychiatric care-outpatient (QPC-OP) instrument community mental health patients' version: psychometric properties and factor structure

Background: Health systems in the field of mental health are strongly committed to community models that allow patients to be attended in their own environment. This helps them to maintain their family and social ties while trying to avoid costly hospital admissions. The patients' perspective is a key component in the assessment of the quality of psychiatric care and can even determine their adherence to the devices where they are treated. However, there are few instruments with adequate psychometric properties for the evaluation of the quality of psychiatric care in community mental health. The Quality in Psychiatric Care - Outpatient (QPC-OP) instrument has adequate psychometric properties to assess the quality of psychiatric care from the patients' perspective. The aim of this study was to adapt and validate the Spanish version of the QPC-OP instrument. Methods: A translation and back‑translation of the instrument was carried out. To examine its psychometric properties, the instrument was administered to 200 patients attending various community mental health services. To assess test‑retest reliability, the instrument was readministered after 7‑14 days (n = 98). Results: The Confirmatory Factor Analysis revealed a structure of 8 factors identical to the original version, with an adequate model fit. The internal consistency coefficient (Cronbach's alpha) was 0.951. The intraclass correlation coeff icient was 0.764 (95% IC: 0.649 - 0.842), and higher than 0.70 in 5 of the 8 factors. Additionally, an EFA was performed and revealed that the instrument could behave in a unifactorial or four factor manner in the sample analyzed. Conclusions: Results show that the Spanish version of the QPC-OP instrument is valid and reliable for the assessment of quality of psychiatric care in the community setting

A Spanish adaptation of the Quality in Psychiatric Care Inpatient (QPC-IP) instrument: Psychometric properties and factor structure

Background and aim: Western countries share an interest in evaluating and improving quality of care in the healthcare field. The aim was to develop and examine the psychometric properties and factor structure of the Spanish version of the Quality in Psychiatric Care-Inpatient (QPC-IP) instrument. Methods: A psychometric study was conducted, translating the QPC-IPS instrument into Spanish, revision of the instrument by a panel of experts, and assessing its psychometric properties. 150 psychiatric inpatients completed the QPC-IP. Test-retest reliability was assessed by re-administering the questionnaire to 75 of these patients. Results: After conducting pilot testing and a cognitive interview with 30 inpatients, it was determined that the QPC-IPS was adequate and could be self-administered. A Cronbach's alpha of 0.94 was obtained for the full instrument and values of 0.52-0.89 for the various dimensions of the questionnaire. Test re test reliability: The Intraclass Correlation Coefficient for the full questionnaire was 0.69, while for the individual dimensions values between 0.62 and 0.74 were obtained, indicating acceptable temporal stability. Convergent validity was analysed using 10-point numerical satisfaction scale, giving a positive correlation (0.49). Confirmatory factor analysis revealed six factors consistent with the original scale. The Spanish version yielded adequate results in terms of validity and reliability. Conclusion: Our findings provide evidence of the convergent validity, reliability, temporal stability and construct validity of the Spanish QPC-IP for measuring patient quality in psychiatric care in Spanish hospitals. Hospital administrators can use this tool to assess and identify areas for improvement to enhance quality in psychiatric car

Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties of the Spanish Quality in Psychiatric Care Forensic Inpatient Staff (QPC-FIPS) instrument

Quality in Psychiatric Care-Forensic Inpatient Staff (QPC-FIPS) is an instrument of Swedish origin validated to measure the perception of the quality of mental health care provided by forensic psychiatry professionals. The aim of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the QPC-FIPS instrument and to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the instrument. A psychometric study was carried out. For validity, content validity, convergent validity and construct validity were included. For reliability, the analysis of internal consistency and temporal stability was included. The sample consisted of 153 mental health professionals from four Forensic Psychiatry units. The adapted Spanish version of the QPC-FIPS scale was configured with the same number of items and dimensions as the original. The psychometric properties, in terms of temporal stability and internal consistency, were adequate and the factor structure, such as the homogeneity of the dimensions of the Spanish version of the QPC-FIPS, was equivalent to the original Swedish version. We found that the QPC_FIPS-Spanish is a valid, reliable and easy-to-apply instrument for assessing the self-perception of professionals regarding the care they provide
