Development and Validation of an Instrument Measuring Self-Care in Persons With a Fecal Ostomy.
The purpose of this study was to describe development of the Specific Self-Care for Ostomized Patients Questionnaire (CAESPO) instrument and evaluate its construct validity, internal reliability, and test-retest reliability (temporal stability). ⋯ Psychometric tests indicate that the CAESPO is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring self-care in persons living with a fecal ostomy.
