摘要：Objective: To investigate the psychometric properties of the self-care behavior scale in heart failure (HF) patients. The development of self-care behaviors is one of the goals of non-pharmacological care management programs.Methods: After translating the European Heart Failure Self-care Behavior scale (EHFScBS), validity was assessed through explanatory factor analysis; additionally, reliability was assessed through Cronbach alpha and test–retest. The samples comprised of 120 HF patients admitted to hospitals in Tehran during 2017–2018.Results: The mean age of the samples was 67.3 ± 14.04 years. Fifty-four patients (45％) were female. All items of the scale had an acceptable factor loading. Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.72. The intra-cluster correlation coefficient (ICC) was 0.69.Conclusions: Nurses and clinicians could benefit from the Persian version of HF self-care scale since it would enable them to rapidly assess patients' self-care behaviors and to evaluate the effectiveness of the HF management.
