ABSTRACT: Background
The ObsQoR-11 is a validated scale that assesses recovery after cesarean delivery (CD). This observational study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of its Arabic version.Methods
The original ObsQoR-11 was translated into an Arabic version (ObsQoR-10A). All participants completed the ObsQoR-10A at 24 h and 48 h postoperatively after CD. Validity, reliability, responsiveness, and feasibility were assessed.Results
The ObsQoR-10A correlated with Global Health Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) at 24 h (R = 0.68, 95% CI: 0.56-0.80, P < 0.001) and at 48 h (R = 0.66, 95% CI: 0.54-0.78, P < 0.001) and differentiated between good and poor recovery (median scores at 24 h 88 vs. 71, P < 0.001; at 48 h 95.5 vs. 70, P < 0.001). ObsQoR-10A correlated with hospital length of stay at 24 h (R = -0.21, 95% CI: -0.40 to -0.02, P = 0.03) and at 48 h (R = -0.21, 95% CI: -0.40 to -0.03, P = 0.02); gestational age at 24 h (R = 0.22, 95% CI: 0.03-0.40, P = 0.02); change in hemoglobin at 24 h (R = -0.30, 95% CI: 0.51 to -0.10, P < 0.01); and total opioids at 48 h (R = -0.45, 95% CI: -0.62 to -0.27, P < 0.001). There was a significant difference between 24 h and 48 h postoperative ObsQoR-10A scores (median difference: -18; P < 0.001 which shows responsiveness). Other key measures included a Cronbach's alpha of 0.87, split-half 0.75, and intra-class correlation >0.62 with no floor or ceiling effects. Median (IQR) completion time was 3 (3-5) and 3 (2.5-3.5) minutes at 24 h and 48 h.Conclusions
ObsQoR-10A is a valid, reliable, responsive, and a clinically feasible tool in an Arabic-speaking obstetric population.
