ABSTRACT
Objective:
This study aimed to evaluate the methodological quality and measurement attribute quality of the post-stroke fatigue measurement scale, so as to provide some basis for the clinical application and promotion of related scales.Methods:
The Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, the Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, the China Science and Technology Journal Database, the Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, the Chinese Biology Medicine, PubMed, Embase, Medline, the Cochrane Library, the Web of Science, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases were searched for literature on the post-stroke fatigue measurement scale up to June 2022. Literature screening and data extraction were carried out independently by two researchers, and in the case of disagreement, discussions were held with a third investigator to reach an agreement, and the COSMIN checklist and criteria were used to systematically evaluate the attributes of the measurement scale.Results:
A total of 17 studies were included, involving 10 post-stroke fatigue measurement scales. The content validity of FSS-7, FACIT-F, NRS-FRS, and MFI-20 was "not mentioned," and the remaining scales were "uncertain." In terms of construct validity, MFS was "adequate"; FSS-7, FACIT-F, and NRS-FRS were "not mentioned"; and the remaining scales were "uncertain." In terms of internal consistency, NRS-FRS was "not mentioned"; FSS and MFS were "adequate"; and the remaining scales were "uncertain." In terms of hypothesis testing, CIS and FACIT-F were "not mentioned," NRS-FRS was "adequate," and the remaining scales were "uncertain." The stability of FSS-7, CIS, FACIT-F, and MFI-20 was "not mentioned," and the remaining scales were "adequate." The cross-cultural validity of FSS-7 was "adequate," and the remaining scales were "not mentioned." All 10 scales were given a recommendation grade of "B".Conclusion:
For the time being, the FSS can be recommended to measure post-stroke fatigue, but it still needs to be tested for more relevant measurement properties in order to gain more support from high-quality evidence. For a more comprehensive assessment of post-stroke fatigue, the FIS, FAS, and NFI-stroke should perhaps be considered, as the FSS is a one-dimensional scale that can only measure physical fatigue in patients; however, these scales also need to be tested for more relevant measurement properties to verify their clinical applicability.
