Methodological research design was used in this study. It took place in five phases preliminary phase includes literature review, focussed group discussion, assessment of current practices, generation of item pool, and preparation of preliminary draft; then its validation by modified Delphi technique, pilot testing; final try out, and evaluation phase. A total of 260 patients were enrolled.RESULTS:
The content validity index was 0.97. To perform factor analysis and principal component analysis KMO and Bartlett's test of sphericity was used, which allows the data for factor analysis to yield eight components. A total of 26 items were formulated. The scoring was done dichotomously; a score of 1 is for done and 0 for not done and not applicable. Cronbach's alpha was used to find out the internal consistency of the checklist was found to be 0.72. For interrater reliability, the Cohen kappa's value was found to be 0.91.CONCLUSIONS:
