INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Sexual well-being is an important aspect of women's life. The objective of this study was to validate the Portuguese-translated version of the short form of the Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire-PISQ-12. METHODS: Sixty-four women were enrolled to participate in the process of validating the PISQ-12 (study group). A further 68 subjects were allocated to a control group for comparison between the group of women with pelvic organ prolapse/urinary incontinence and the asymptomatic group. RESULTS: The PISQ-12 presented good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha of 0.79 for the study group and 0.80 for the control group). The test-retest reliability using the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.77. Mean score on the PISQ-12 was significantly higher in the control group than in the study group (42.7 ± 3.9 vs 27.8 ± 9.3) CONCLUSIONS: The Portuguese version of the PISQ-12 was reliable for the assessment of sexual function in women with pelvic organ prolapse/urinary incontinence. |
