Highlights
- •The first Turkish version of IDSS is a reliable metric for satisfactions insulin devices in T2DM.
- •High self satisfaction insülin devices in patients with T2DM enhances adherence to illness management.
- •IDSS can be used in nursing practice for evaluation of the satisfactions this insulin devices to patients.
Abstract
Background/aim
Various new insulin delivery devices (e.g., insulin pumps, digital insulin pens, continuous
subcutaneous insulin infusion) and features have been introduced over the last decade,
and even more are in development. Despite their benefits, however, usage rates remain
low. This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Insulin Device
Satisfaction Scale (IDSS) in the Turkish population.
Materials and methods
This cross-sectional methodological study included 150 patients with type 2 diabetes
mellitus. Descriptive statistics, Cronbach’s alpha, confirmatory factor analysis,
and test–retest correlation were used for reliability and construct validity analyses.
Results
The IDSS was first translated into Turkish by two experts, then sent to a committee
of 9 experts for content validity analysis. The total Cronbach’s alpha value of the
scale was 0.763. Goodness-of-fit indicators of the scale model were χ2 = 126.96, χ2/sd = 2.59, root mean square error of approximation = 0.076, comparative fit index
= 0.90, incremental fit index = 0.91, non-normed fit index = 0.91, and normed fit
index = 0.91.
Conclusions
Our findings demonstrate that the Turkish version of the IDSS is valid and reliable
in the Turkish population. The IDSS can be used in nursing research and practice to
evaluate Turkish patients’ satisfaction with insulin devices.
