AbstractObjectives: This study aimed to develop the Chinese version of the Perceived Barriers to Health Care-seeking Decision (PBHSD-C) and evaluate its psychometric properties in Chinese patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Background: The assessment of the level of perceived barriers in the care-seeking trajectory of ACS patients is important for the understanding of its impact on pre-hospital delay in seeking care. Methods: The psychometric properties of PBHSD-C were evaluated among 114 ACS patients in the cardiac unit of two major hospitals in Hong Kong. Results: The Content Validity Indexes were ranged from .88 to 1. The Cronbach's alpha of the PBHSD-C was .74. The intraclass correlation coefficients of all items were above .80. The convergent validity of the PBHSD-C was also supported. Conclusion: The PBHSD-C is reliable and valid to be used to assess the level of perceived barriers in the care-seeking of Chinese patients with ACS. © 2014 Elsevier Inc.
