Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Shanghai Elbow Dysfunction Score (SHEDS) is originally developed in English to evaluate elbow function in patients with elbow stiffness. The purpose of this study is to translate and cross-culturally adapt the SHEDS instrument into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Shanghai Elbow Dysfunction Score (SHEDS) is originally developed in English to evaluate joint function in patients with elbow stiffness. The purpose of this study is to translate and cross-culturally adapt the SHEDS instrument into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties. Approximately seventy patients with elbow limitation will be included. For cross-cultural adaptation, two bi-lingual translators will use the back-translation procedure. Within a 3-to-5-day period after the first assessment, the participants will complete the Turkish version of SHEDS (SHEDS-T) to evaluate test-retest reliability. Cronbach's alpha (α) will use to assess internal consistency. The correlation with the Turkish version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire, the Turkish version of Mayo Elbow Performance Score, and Short Form-12 will be determined to check the validity. Responsiveness and floor and ceiling effects will be detected.
