Özet:

 Aim: Diabetic foot ulcers are one of the most serious and costly complications of diabetes mellitus, posing a significant economic, social, and public health challenge. This study aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of the Nurse Attitude Scale Towards Diabetic Foot Care in Turkish. Material and Methods: A methodological design was used in this study conducted at two centers. The Turkish version of the scale underwent translation, back-translation, and review by 10 experts. Content validity was further assessed through a pilot study. The scale was administered to a total of 146 nurses caring for diabetic foot patients in two centers. An introductory form including general descriptive characteristics of nurses and the Nurse Attitude Scale Towards Diabetic Foot Care were used to collect data. Statistical analysis was performed with IBM SPSS 25.0 and Amos 23 programs. The reliability of the scale was tested by Cronbachs alpha analysis and the factor structure was tested by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Results: As a result of confirmatory factor analysis, items 1 and 2 of the scale consisting of 10 propositions were removed and it was determined that the scale with 8 propositions sufficiently explained the common variance of all propositions. After determining that the sample size was highly suitable for factor analysis, exploratory factor analysis was conducted. The Cronbachs alpha reliability coefficient of the scale was found to be 0.89. Conclusion: The Turkish version of the Diabetic Foot Care Nurse Attitude Scale was found to be valid and reliable. . Due to its short and practical application with eight propositions, it can contribute to the more objective evaluation of diabetic foot care by being widely used in clinical practice.

 Amaç: Diyabetik ayak ülserleri diyabetin en ciddi ve maliyetli komplikasyonlarından biridir. Önemli bir ekonomik, sosyal ve halk sağlığı sorunudur. Bu nedenle planlanan bu araştırmada; Diyabetik Ayak Bakımına Yönelik Hemşire Tutum Ölçeğinin Türkçe geçerlilik ve güvenilirliğinin incelenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çift merkezli olarak yürütülen çalışmada metodolojik tasarım kullanılmıştır. Diyabetik Ayak Bakımına Yönelik Hemşire Tutum Ölçeğinin Türkçe versiyonu için çeviri - geri çeviri yapılmış sonrasında 10 uzmanın incelemesi ve pilot çalışma ile içerik geçerliliği yapılmıştır. Ölçek, diyabetik ayak hastasına bakım veren çift merkezde toplam 146 hemşireye uygulanmıştır. Veri toplamak için hemşirelerin genel tanıtıcı özelliklerini içeren tanıtım formu ve Diyabetik Ayak Bakımına Yönelik Hemşire Tutum Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. İstatistiksel analiz IBM SPSS 25.0 ve Amos 23 programlarıyla yapılmıştır. Ölçeğin güvenirliği Cronbach alfa analiziyle, faktör yapısı ise açıklayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleriyle sınanmıştır. Bulgular: Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda ölçeğin, 10 önermeden oluşan 1. ve 2. önermeleri çıkarılmış, ölçek 8 önermeli olarak tüm önermelerin ortak varyansı açıklama oranları yeterli düzeyde tespit edilmiştir. Örneklem büyüklüğünün faktör analizini yapmaya son derece uygun olduğu görüldükten sonra, açıklayıcı faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Ölçeğin Cronbach alfa güvenilirlik katsayısı 0,89 bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Diyabetik Ayak Bakımına Yönelik Hemşire Tutum Ölçeğinin Türkçe versiyonu geçerli ve güvenilir bulunmuştur. Ölçeğin sekiz önermeli olarak kısa ve pratik uygulaması sayesinde, klinik uygulamada yaygın bir şekilde kullanılarak diyabetik ayak bakımının değerlendirmesinin daha objektif bir şekilde yapılmasına katkı sağlayabilir.
