Russian Version of HSS Knee Replacement Expectations Survey: Language and Cultural Adaptation

Abstract

Purpose . To perform language and cultural adaptation of the Hospital of Special Surgery (HSS) Knee Replacement Expectations Survey and evaluate its reliability. Material and methods . To preserve the HSS validity its language and cultural adaptation was performed in several steps: (1) direct translation, (2) synthesis of the intermediate version, (3) back translation, (4) expert commission review and creation of the 2nd intermediate version, (5) pre-testing and formation of a final version, study of reliability with evaluation of Cronbach’s alpha and intra class correlation coefficient (ICC). Total number of 35 patients (mean age 54.2 years) with terminal-stage gonarthrosis who were admitted for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) participated in the study. Results . Cronbach’s alpha and intra class correlation coefficient (ICC) for the translated and adapted version of HSS Knee Replacement Expectations Survey made up 0.871 and 0.82 (95% confidence interval 0.725-0.897) that was indicative of high correlation between Russian version and the original. Conclusion . Russian version of HSS Knee Replacement Expectations Survey is a reliable tool and can be used for the evaluation of patient expectations prior to TKA.
