Abstract

Purpose
This study was to examine the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium (CAPD).
Methods
For testing the reliability of the Korean version of the CAPD, this study calculated the internal consistency (Cronbach's ⍺) and the Interrater Correlation Coefficient (ICC) by comparing the independent assessment results of three nurses in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). For testing the validity of the Korean version of the CAPD, the assessment result of the Korean version of the CAPD compared with that of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders V (DSM-V). Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis was used for measuring sensitivity and specificity.
Results
Overall interrater reliability of the Korean version of the CAPD, ICC was .98 (95% CI .96~.99). Cronbach's ⍺ was .91 for eight items. The concordance between the Korean version of the CAPD and psychiatrist’s diagnosis was 90.0%. When the Korean version of the CAPD has the cut point of 9, sensitivity was 93.8%, and specificity was 75.0%. The area under the curve indicated by the ROC analysis was .88.
Conclusion
The Korean version of the CAPD showed good reliability and validity. This tool will be useful for pediatric delirium screening and management in Korean PICU.
