Abstract

Objective ·To introduce and translate the Occupational Sitting and Physical Activity Questionnaire (OSPAQ), and evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of OSPAQ among intensive care nurses. Methods ·After the translation of OSPAQ, from March 2021 to July 2021, 113 intensive care nurses from two comprehensive tertiary first-class hospitals in Shanghai were conveniently selected as research objects. All participants wore ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometer for 7 consecutive days, and then filled in the Chinese version of OSPAQ. Thirty nurses were retested after an interval of a week. Intraclass correlation coefficient was used to evaluate retest reliability. Criterion validity was assessed by using Spearman′s rank correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman plots. Results ·The sample included 113 intensive care nurses (20 nurses working in day shifts, and 93 nurses working in rotating shifts). The test-retest intraclass correlation coefficients for occupational sitting, standing, and walking in OSPAQ ranged from 0.766 to 0.882, which was evaluated as excellent. The test-retest intraclass correlation coefficients for heavy labour were 0.606, which was evaluated as acceptable. Spearman′s rank correlation coefficients for sitting (0.456) and walking (0.428) showed moderate associations, and that for standing (0.200) showed weak associations. Based on the analysis of the two subgroups, the Spearman′s rank correlation coefficients for sitting and walking showed strong associations among day shifts nurses, while those showed moderate associations among rotating shifts nurses. The Spearman′s rank correlation coefficients for standing showed weak or no associations among day shifts nurses and rotating shifts nurses. Bland-Altman consistency analysis showed that the consistency between the results of sitting posture, standing posture and walking measured by Chinese version OSPAQ and accelerometer was 93.8% to 94.7% in 113 nurses. When using Chinese version OSPAQ self-assessment, the time of sitting posture and standing posture was underestimated and the time of walking was overestimated. Conclusion ·The Chinese version of OSPAQ has good test-retest reliability and moderate validity for occupational sitting and walking among intensive care nurses. It is a simple and reliable assessment tool for occupational physical activity.
