Validation of the Russian Version of the Prolapse Quality-of-life Questionnaire and its Application to Assess the Impact of Pelvic Organ Prolapse on Quality of Life and the Effect of Treatment in Women Undergoing Reconstructive Surgery.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to validate the translated Russian version of the prolapse quality-of-life (P-QoL) questionnaire and test its applicability to assess the impact of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) on QoL and the effect of treatment in women undergoing reconstructive surgery. METHODS: Following a forward- and back-translation of the original English P-QOL questionnaire into Russian, the translated questionnaire was reviewed by a group of patients as well as an expert panel. Women with POP who were admitted to a university hospital for reconstructive surgery were recruited. All the women completed the P-QoL questionnaire, Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI-20) and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) questionnaires before surgery. Clinical data and POP Quantification (POP-Q) Index according to the International Continence Society were obtained. Psychometric properties of the questionnaire were assessed. RESULTS: A total of 303 women with POP were included in the study. Most patients presented with POP-Q >2. The P-QoL questionnaire demonstrated good psychometric properties. High internal consistency was shown in all domains (Cronbach's alpha coefficient from 0.65 to 0.92). The test-retest reliability confirmed a highly significant stability between the total scores for each domain. Significant correlations of the P-QoL domains with the PFDI-20 and SF-36 scales (p < 0.05) were obtained, demonstrating satisfactory convergent validity. Discriminative construct validity was proved by the differences in the mean scores for P-QoL domains across POP-Q stages (p < 0.05): general health perceptions, role limitations, physical limitations, social limitations and severity measures were significantly higher for POP-Q stages 3 and 4 than for POP-Q stage 2 (p < 0.01); general health perceptions and severity measures were higher for POP-Q stage 4 than for POP-Q stage 3 (p < 0.05); sleep/energy was higher for POP-Q stage 3 than for POP-Q stage 2 (p < 0.05). Significant improvement of QoL in the 2 months after surgery (p < 0.05) indicated that the P-QoL questionnaire is sensitive to change. CONCLUSIONS: The Russian version of the P-QoL questionnaire is characterized by appropriate psychometric properties. The P-QoL questionnaire is a useful tool for describing the QoL profile in women with POP before reconstructive surgery and evaluating treatment outcomes after the procedure.
