Transcultural adaptation and testing of psychometric properties of the Korean version of the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS).
Translation and transcultural adaptation of the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS LK 2.0) into Korean language was performed, followed by test of psychometric properties. ⋯ The Korean version of HOOS showed satisfactory internal consistency, test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and responsiveness. This study shows that the HOOS questionnaire developed in West is, with transcultural adaptation, relevant for use among patients in East Asia.
