Key result
The revised 11-item NCCDQOL questionnaire demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.89) and validity in the Rasch model for assessing quality of life in older individuals with neuro-co-cardiological diseases.
Why the study?
This study aimed to develop a quality of life assessment scale for older patients with neuro-co-cardiological diseases and evaluate its reliability and validity.
Cross-Sectional (n=196)
Yes
The newly developed 11-item NCCDQOL scale is a reliable and valid tool for assessing the quality of life in older patients with concurrent neurological and cardiological diseases.

Should not yet change practice; supports further validation studies in neuro-co-cardiological populations.
Song et al. (2024) conducted a cross-sectional in Neuro-co-Cardiological Diseases (NCCD) (n=196). NCCDQOL scale assessment was evaluated on Scale reliability and validity (Cronbach's alpha and Rasch model fit). The revised 11-item NCCDQOL questionnaire demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.89) and validity in the Rasch model for assessing quality of life in older individuals with neuro-co-cardiological diseases.
