AB  - BACKGROUND: The Integrated Palliative Care Outcome Scale (IPOS) was developed in 
      the United Kingdom for health assessment in advanced illness. OBJECTIVES: To 
      evaluate the validity and reliability of a culturally adapted IPOS (both patient 
      and staff versions) for heart failure (HF). DESIGN/SETTING: We recruited HF 
      patients and staff from a tertiary hospital in Singapore. We collected patient 
      IPOS, New York Heart Association (NYHA) status, Edmonton Symptom Assessment 
      System (ESAS) and Minnesota Living with Heart Failure (MLHF) scores at baseline, 
      and patient IPOS at follow-up. Each baseline patient IPOS was matched with a 
      staff IPOS. MEASUREMENTS: Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between ESAS, MLHF, 
      and patient IPOS was calculated to assess construct validity. The two-sample 
      T-test assessed difference in patient and staff IPOS scores across NYHA status 
      and care settings for known-group validity. Internal consistency of patient and 
      staff IPOS was assessed using Cronbach's alpha (alpha). Intraclass correlation 
      coefficient (ICC) was used to assess test-retest reliability of patient IPOS and 
      inter-rater reliability between patient and staff IPOS. RESULTS: Ninety-one 
      patients and 12 staff participated. There was strong convergent validity of total 
      patient IPOS with MLHF (r = 0.78) and ESAS (r = 0.81). There were statistically 
      significant differences in total IPOS across care settings (patient-IPOS: 8.05, 
      staff-IPOS 13.61) and NYHA (patient-IPOS: 7.52, staff-IPOS 12.71).There was high 
      internal consistency of total patient (alpha = 0.83) and staff IPOS (alpha = 0.88) and 
      high test-retest reliability of patient IPOS (ICC 0.81). Inter-rater reliability 
      (ICC) ranged between 0.82 and 0.91. CONCLUSION: The IPOS was valid and reliable 
      for HF patients in Singapore.
