“…Internal consistency is a concept that measures the extent to which items in a questionnaire are homogenous; a consistent examination will measure the same concept with similar results using multiple items. Our Cronbach's α of 0.96 demonstrated that PRWE-S achieved a good correlation between items in a scale, and our finding was correspondent with other studies [11][12][13][14][15][16][18][19][20][21][22][23]26 particularly when compared with MacDermid's reported value for the original (English) PRWE of 0.98. 31 Test-retest reliability was moderate, likely indicating that patients had changes in their status during the period between examinations, despite a short interval averaging only 10 days.…”

Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation: Spanish Version and Evaluation of Its Psychometric Properties in Patients with Acute Distal Radius Fracture

The purpose of this paper is to validate a Spanish version of patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) and evaluate its psychometric attributes in a population of patients with distal radius fracture. A translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the PRWE to Spanish (PRWE-S) was performed according to standardized guidelines. A total of 50 patients with a distal radius fracture were included during the different steps of the study. The reliability of the new instrument was assessed in terms of construct validity with the Quick DASH (Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand). Internal consistency and test-retest stability were also examined. The Spearman's correlation test for analysis of the criterion validity (0.75) indicates a strong positive correlation between the PRWE-S and the Quick DASH. The internal consistency according to Cronbach's α was 0.96, and the intraclass correlation coefficient was moderate (0.46). A Spanish version of the PRWE indicated good validity and reliability in distal radius fracture patients. This valuable tool can be used in Spanish-speaking countries to evaluate various aspects as pain and function in patients with injuries of the wrist.

“…The PRWHE questionnaire is used to evaluate the pain and disability level in the wrist and hand of the patient, determine treatment targets, and follow the pain and functional status after rehabilitation and surgical treatment [15]. Its reliability and validity have been tested and it has been used in various populations as it is short and easy to administer [14][15][16].…”

“…The most common diagnoses in patients with hand problems were hand fractures, tendon lacerations, palmar fasciectomy, or finger joint arthroplasty (metacarpophalangeal joint or proximal interphalangeal joint) [5]. The PRWHE questionnaire has been translated into Arabic, Italian, and Dutch and cross-cultural adaptation studies have been conducted [14][15][16].…”

The aim of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the Turkish version of the Patient-Rated Wrist/Hand Evaluation (T-PRWHE) questionnaire for use in the Turkish patient population. Moreover, we aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of the T-PRWHE questionnaire. Materials and methods: A total of 166 patients with hand and wrist problems were included in the study. They completed the T-PRWHE, the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire, and the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) at baseline and at the 3rd month of the study. Reliability was evaluated by analyzing internal consistency (Cronbach alpha coefficient) and testretest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient). To analyze validity, factor analysis of the T-PRWHE and correlation coefficients between the T-PRWHE, DASH, and SF-36 were obtained. Results: Reliability of the T-PRWHE in terms of internal consistency (Cronbach alpha coefficients for T-PRWHE were found to be 0.85) was excellent. Intraclass correlation coefficients were over 0.90. The T-PRWHE has three factors and the correlations between the T-PRWHE and DASH and SF-36 were statistically significant. Conclusion: Based on the results obtained, the Turkish version of the PRWHE questionnaire was found to be a valid and reliable scale and it is recommended for the evaluation of patient-based pain and disability level in routine clinical practice.

“…Mean PRWHE scores are sometimes reported with one, or even two, decimal points, in effect, using a scale from 0 to 1000 or 10000. 3,10 This gives the impression that the scores are very precise. It is important to keep in mind that this is not the case.…”

The reliability of remembered pre-operative patient-rated wrist and hand evaluation (PRWHE) scores

2018

In clinical audits where pre-operative patient-rated wrist and hand evaluation (PRWHE) scores were not recorded, it would be useful if such scores could be recreated at the time of review. We recorded a PRWHE score during the last week before surgery for 143 patients. They were contacted after 21 months and asked to furnish a new PRWHE of the state they were in during the last week before surgery. 80 (56%) of the patients responded. The mean difference was 10 (SD: 20; SEM: 2) higher remembered pre-operative score. The limits of 95% agreement for individual scores were -29 and 50, while the 95% confidence interval of the mean was 6-15. If 10 is subtracted from the mean remembered preoperative score of a group of patients, the real pre-operative score will with 95% confidence be this score plus/minus 4. Remembered pre-operative PRWHE scores are far too inaccurate to be of value in individual patients. It may be possible to predict the mean real pre-operative PRWHE score in groups of patients with useful accuracy using the remembered pre-operative score.
