Cross-sectional analysis reveals internal consistency and construct validity of the Thai cardiac rehabilitation barriers scale for outpatients, indicating its utility for improving participation.

Key Points

The Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale Thai version shows acceptable psychometric properties for Thai patients with cardiovascular diseases.
Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated goodness of fit indices exceeding recommended thresholds, validating the scale's structure.
Psychometric testing on 200 outpatients identified four subscales explaining 61.8% of variance related to barriers in rehabilitation.
This evaluation highlights the importance of understanding barriers to cardiac rehabilitation, which may improve patient care and attendance.
