Abstract

Objective To develop a scale for early rehabilitation readiness of critically injured patients and test its reliability and validity. Methods Using the Health Belief Model as the theoretical framework，we developed an item pool through literature analysis，semi-structured interviews，and theoretical analysis. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultations and a pilot test with a small sample size，we finalized the preliminary questionnaire. Through convenience sampling，we recruited critically ill trauma patients hospitalized at three Grade III-A general hospitals in Shandong Province for investigation. The questionnaire items were then screened and validated for reliability and validity. Results The scale comprises six dimensions with 35 items. Exploratory factor analysis identified six common factors，accounting for a cumulative variance contribution rate of 74.175%. Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated stable factor structure. The total scale showed Cronbach’s α coefficient of 0.948，with half-reliability at 0.925 and retest reliability at 0.931. Content validity index of the scale was 0.982，with individual items demonstrating content validity from 0.900 to 1.000. Conclusion The early rehabilitation readiness scale for critically injured patients has good reliability and validity，and can be used as a tool to evaluate the early recovery readiness of critically injured patients.
