Resumen

Objetivo:

La adaptación de la Escala de Calidad de Vida en la Depresión, QLDS, al español.

Métodos:

Dos grupos de traducción consideraron la versión original del Reino Unido de la QLDS y produjeron una traducción española. Se dio prioridad a la equivalencia conceptual, antes que a la semántica. Esta versión se comprobó luego en un ensayo de campo con 15 pacientes deprimidos. El estadio final de la investigación implicaba un estudio por correo de 62 pacientes, a quienes se pidió que completaran la medida en dos ocasiones.

Resultados:

Se encontró que la QLDS española era apropiada y aceptable por los pacientes deprimidos. La fiabilidad test-retest y la consistencia interna del cuestionario fueron altas ambas, y las puntuaciones de la QLDS correlacionaron como se predecía con las puntuaciones en las secciones del Perfil de Salud de Nottingham. La medida era sensible a los niveles diferentes de depresión evaluados por la Escala Hospitalaria de Ansiedad y Depresión.

Conclusión:

La versión española de la QLDS es idónea para su uso en ensayos clínicos y para controlar a los pacientes individuales en la práctica clínica de rutina.
