Post-intensive care screening: French translation and validation of the Healthy Aging Brain Care-Monitor, hybrid version. Health Qual Life Outcomes. 2022;20(1):59.

Their authors have also developed a hybrid version (HABC-M-HV) suited to the daily needs of their post-ICU follow-up clinic. The objectives of the present cross-sectional observational study were to translate the HABC-M-HV questionnaire into French (HABC-M-HV-F) according to international guidelines and to test its measurement properties. Methods: The HABC-M-HV was translated according to international guidelines. The measurement performances of the questionnaire were tested using internal consistency, test-retest reliability, Standard Error of Measurement (SEM) and Smallest Detectable Change (SDC) calculation, floor and ceiling effect measurement and construct validity. Results: The validation study included 51 ICU survivors (27.5% women, 63 [55-71] years old). The questionnaire was administered by phone. The internal consistency was very good (Cronbach's alpha coefficient 0.79). The intra- and inter-examinator reliabilities were excellent (Intraclass Coefficient Correlation = 0.99 and 0.97, respectively). The SEM was 0.62 and the SDC was 1.72. No floor or ceiling effects were observed. The convergent validity was almost entirely confirmed with 71.4% of our hypothesis confirmed. Conclusion: The HABC-M-HV-F has been shown to be a valid and reliable tool for PICS screening and follow-up in French-speaking ICU survivors. A remote administration by phone was feasible.en-USAttribution 4.0 InternationalCritical illnessSurvivorsPost-intensive care syndromeHealthy Aging Brain Care MonitorFunctional capacityAnxietyDepressionCognitive disordersHealth-related quality of lifeArticle
