Psychometric properties of the Clinical Sustainability Assessment Tool (CSAT) short form across three research centers evaluating effectiveness and implementation of a cancer symptom surveillance and management intervention.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The Clinical Sustainability Assessment Tool (CSAT) is designed to capture determinants of sustainable clinical practices over time. Although the full 49-item CSAT instrument has demonstrated strong psychometric properties, the 21-item short form has had limited evaluation. This study aimed to assess the CSAT short form (CSAT Short) across different respondent characteristics and care delivery settings.

Methods

We evaluated the CSAT Short in a sample of healthcare personnel (N = 256 respondents) drawn from across three hybrid effectiveness-implementation studies in a research consortium, all of which tested routine symptom surveillance and integration of symptom management interventions in ambulatory oncology care settings in the US. Confirmatory factor analyses (CF
