Purpose: To assess the validity and reliability ofthe EORTC QLQ-H&N35 as a tool to measure the quality of life of patients with head and neck cancerin Makassar. Methods: This study was an observational analytic cross-sectional approach. This researchwas conducted during September - November 2013. The population was all head and neck cancer caseswho came for treatment to the ENT Department Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital. Sample of 60 peoplewere selected purposively.  Assessment of quality of life used the European Organization for Research andTreatment of Cancer - Head and Neck Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-H&N35) afterthe validity and reliability tests was conducted transcultural validation in Indonesian language adaptationaccording to the WHO. Results:  On the validity of the test, it showed significant correlation in almostall scales of symptoms, while on reliability test results of the EORTC QLQ–H&N35 assessment, it  was excellent   with values   of Cronbach-a >0,7. Conclusion: The Indonesian adaptation EORTC QLQ–H&N35was found as valid and reliable instrument for assessing the quality of life of patients with head and neckcancer in ENT Department, Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital in Makassar.

Abstract Introduction Dysphagia is common in head and neck cancer patients; it is associated with significant morbidity, including quality of life. Several instruments can be used to assess the quality of life of dysphagia patients, including the M.D Anderson dysphagia inventory (MDADI) questionnaire, which is sufficiently valid and reliable to improve the quality of life of patients with neurological disorders and head and neck cancer. Objective The purpose of the present study is to perform adaptation, cultural translation, and validation of the MDADI questionnaire for the Indonesian language. Methods This cross-sectional study assessed the validity and reliability of the MDADI Indonesian adaptation instrument in head and neck cancer patients with swallowing disorders in the Otorhinolaryngology clinic of the Dr. Sardjito hospital, Yogyakarta, from May to August 2019. Results There were 40 study subjects, including 31 men and 9 women. The MDADI instrument adapted to Indonesian is valid and reliable as an instrument for assessing the quality of life of patients with head and neck cancer with swallowing disorders, with r-values ranging from 0.314 to 0.939. Internal consistency shows that Cronbach's α is 0.915, and test-retest reliability (intra-class correlation) ranges from 0.919 to 0.985. Conclusion The translation and validation of the Indonesian MDADI instrument were performed as an instrument for assessing the quality of life of head and neck cancer patients with swallowing disorders.

Objectives: The Eating Assessment Tool is a self-administered, symptom-specific outcome instrument for dysphagia. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of the 10-item Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10). Methods: The investigation consisted of 4 phases: 1) line-item generation, 2) line-item reduction and reliability, 3) normative data generation, and 4) validity analysis. All data were collected prospectively. Internal consistency was assessed with the Cronbach alpha. Test-retest reliability was evaluated with the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient. Normative data were obtained by administering the instrument to a community cohort of healthy volunteers. Validity was assessed by administering the instrument before and after dysphagia treatment and by evaluating survey differences between normal persons and those with known diagnoses. Results: A total of 629 surveys were administered to 482 patients. The internal consistency (Cronbach alpha) of the final instrument was 0.960. The test-retest intra-item correlation coefficients ranged from 0.72 to 0.91. The mean (±SD) EAT-10 score of the normal cohort was 0.40 ± 1.01. The mean EAT-10 score was 23.58 ± 13.18 for patients with esophageal dysphagia, 23.10 ± 12.22 for those with oropharyngeal dysphagia, 9.19 ± 12.60 for those with voice disorders, 22.42 ± 14.06 for those with head and neck cancer, and 11.71 ± 9.61 for those with reflux. The patients with oropharyngeal and esophageal dysphagia and a history of head and neck cancer had a significantly higher EAT-10 score than did those with reflux or voice disorders (p < 0.001). The mean EAT-10 score of the patients with dysphagia improved from 19.87 ± 10.5 to 5.2 ± 7.4 after treatment (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The EAT-10 has displayed excellent internal consistency, test-retest reproducibility, and criterion-based validity. The normative data suggest that an EAT-10 score of 3 or higher is abnormal. The instrument may be utilized to document the initial dysphagia severity and monitor the treatment response in persons with a wide array of swallowing disorders.
