Background: The Chronic Care Model (CCM), developed by Wagner et al., at MacColl Institute for Heathcare Innovation at Group Health Research Institute, Seattle, Washington, United States, is one approach to improving chronic illness care, including diabetes mellitus (DM), that is being used increasingly to assess and improve care. The CCM is based on evidence-based practices and reviews of the literature on effective care. The Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (PACIC) is a 20-item questionnaire assessing the implementation of the CCM from the patient perspective that focuses on the receipt of patient-centered care and self-management behaviors.
Objective: To translate and conduct the cultural adaptation of the Brazilian version of the PACIC in Brazilian patients with DM.
Methods: Methodological study, whose adaptation process cultural included: forward translation, expert committee, back-translation and cognitive interview. The study addresses a sample of 50 Brazilian patients with DM in a Basic Health District Unit in Ribeirao Preto, Sao Paulo, Brazil in 2010.
Results: The former revealed good acceptance of the translated version of the instrument, which participants considered having items of easy understanding. After analysis of the psychometric properties and completion of the validation process, the instrument will become available to Brazilian researchers, enabling its comparison with other cultures.
Conclusion: It is concluded that a culturally adapted instrument in the Brazilian context with a focus on quality of care can provide support for health staff and managers in the planning the health care of patients with chronic illness, especially DM.
Comments/keywords: Comments for the Nurse Abstracts Markers: a culturally adapted instrument in the Brazilian context with a focus on quality of care for patients with DM can ensure continuity of health services and clinical practice of nursing.
Keywords: Chronic Disease, Diabetes Mellitus, Validation Studies, Nursing.
