Cardiac rehabilitation utilization is low, particularly in Arabic-speaking countries, prompting the need to translate and psychometrically validate the Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale in Arabic and evaluate strategies to mitigate barriers.
Is the Arabic version of the Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS-A) a valid and reliable tool for assessing barriers to cardiac rehabilitation in Arabic-speaking patients?
