Description
Development of a Telenursing-Based Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Diabetic Foot Ulcer Risk. Early identification
of the risk of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) is crucial in preventing ulcers. Caring for diabetic patients, including early
detection of the risk of DFU with telenursing, will improve accessibility to health facilities and also help the work of
nurses. Currently, there are many instruments or tools to detect the risk of DFU, but instruments that apply telenursing
and can be used independently and easily by patients are still limited. This study aimed to develop a digital self-assessment
questionnaire for DFU risk in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) patients and conduct validity and reliability tests. This study
was carried out in three stages. The first stage was the planning stage by conducting a literature study; the second stage
was the construction by determining the questionnaire items and testing the content validity index (CVI) by six experts;
and the final stage was the validation stage by conducting a psychometric test in the form of a construct validity test with
factor validity and internal consistency reliability with Cronbach-alpha on 40 respondents who had type 2 DM. The CVI
score by the expert was 0.93, making it included in the very high validity category. The validity and reliability test results
for the DM patients obtained a Cronbach alpha score of 0.83 and a validity of 0.43˗0.68. Two items were deleted due to
invalid results. The self-assessment tool for DFU risk has good validity and reliability values. This questionnaire is simple
and easy for DM patients to use independently
