Abstract:

Objective To systematically evaluate the measurement properties of self-management assessment tools for hypertensive patients in China, and to provide evidence-based support for healthcare professionals to select appropriate assessment tools. Methods CBM, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and ProQuest were searched to collect studies related to the measurement characteristics evaluation of Chinese version of self-management assessment tools for hypertensive patients. The search time limitation was from the establishment of the database to May 2023. Literature screening and data extraction were performed independently by 2 researchers, who rated the methodological quality and measurement properties of the assessment tools according to the Consensus-Based Standards for the Selection of Health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) and formed the final recommendations. Results A total of seven studies involving seven Chinese versions of self-management assessment tools for hypertension patients were included, and only content validity, structural validity, internal consistency, and stability were reported. Since the content validity of each assessment tool was uncertain or inadequate, there was no Category A recommended tools, and there were five Category B recommended tools and two Category C recommended tools. There was high-quality evidence to prove that the internal consistency and construct validity of the Hypertension Patients Self-management Behavior Rating Scale were “sufficient”. Conclusion The Chinese version of hypertension self-management assessment tools is diverse, but the overall quality is not high. The construct validity and internal consistency of the Hypertension Patients Self-management Behavior Rating Scale are good, which can be temporarily recommended for use. However, there are still shortcomings in other measurement properties and further research are required in the future.
