Translation, adaptation, and validation of the Sunderland Scale and the Cubbin & Jackson Revised Scale in Portuguese

Abstract: ObjectiveTo translate into Portuguese and evaluate the measuring properties of the Sunderland Scale and the Cubbin & Jackson Revised Scale, which are instruments for evaluating the risk of developing pressure ulcers during intensive care.MethodsThis study included the process of translation and adaptation of the scales to the Portuguese language, as well as the validation of these tools. To assess the reliability, Cronbach alpha values of 0.702 to 0.708 were identified for the Sunderland Scale and the Cubbin &… Show more

“…The BRDs cover only part of these risk factors and is thus considered to be inadequate in the full risk assessment. Risk assessment scales that contain the other parameters and that are more suitable for the patients of our country are required, or the existing scales need serious modifications (29,31,(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49). Pressure ulcer development risk in patients treated in ICUs should be revised in coordination with healthcare workers.…”

“…However, some parameters that are reported as a risk factor by many authors are not included in this risk scale. In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of publications disclosing that this risk assessment scale is not as reliable as claimed (24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29).…”

“…Nevertheless, the evidence supporting the use of the Jackson/Cubbin scale for assessing PI risk in ICU patients remains limited and contradictory. Some studies have reported that the Jackson/Cubbin scale is reliable and valid for PI risk assessment of ICU patients (Kim, Lee, Lee, & Eom, ; Seongsook et al, ; Sousa, ). By contrast, Boyle and Green () used an unrevised version of the scale and reported a low predictive validity of the scale to assess PI risk; therefore, they did not recommend use of this scale.…”

“…The Braden scale is commonly used in all clinical areas, including ICUs (Balzer et al, ; Kılıç Fırat & Sucudağ, ; Magnan & Maklebust, ; Seongsook et al, ) but it has been criticised on the grounds of limited content, low validity and low inter‐rater reliability (Cho & Noh, ; Cox, ; Kottner & Dassen, ). The Jackson/Cubbin scale was developed for use in ICU patients, but it has only been evaluated by a limited number of contradictory studies (Boyle & Green, ; Kim et al, ; Seongsook et al, ; Sousa, ; Soyer, ). The effect of various risk factors on the total scores of both scales was also investigated in the present study.…”

“…However, there has been no research about whether and how information from EMRs structurally matches with the items of the Cubbin and Jackson scale; therefore, more validation studies of the Cubbin and Jackson scale are needed to support its further use [14]. To address this issue, we first examined the predictive validity of the Cubbin and Jackson scale on pressure ulcer development in ICU patients, and then evaluated the reusability of EMR data for the Cubbin and Jackson scale.…”
