ObjectiveWe report on the development of a participation measure for patients with congestive heart failure (CHF)—the Participation Scale for Patients with CHF (PS-CHF)—and the determination of its unidimensionality, reliability, and validity.DesignThis study included two rounds of data collections: 62 patients enrolled in the first round for the purpose of item reduction, and 130 CHF patients and 96 healthy controls participated in the second round for questionnaire validation.ResultsThe PS-CHF was organized into five items designed to ask about limitations to participation. The PS-CHF score ranges from 5 points (lowest level of participation) to 20 points (highest level of participation). On Rasch analysis, the item calibrations ranged from+ 0.51 logit for the most difficult item to− 0.56 logit for the least difficult item. The range of mean square statistics values was 1.20–0.81 for infit and 1.34–0.72 for outfit. The intraclass correlation coefficient between scores from two successive administrations of the PS-CHF, separated by 2 wks, was 0.94. The total PS-CHF score in CHF patients was significantly lower than in healthy controls.ConclusionsThe PS-CHF was developed to determine a disease-specific participation measure for patients with CHF. The PS-CHF may serve as a clinically meaningful outcome measure for CHF patients.
