Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of hospital survey on patient safety culture in Bengali version (B-HSOPSC 2.0) among nurses in Bangladesh: a cross-sectional study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC 2.0) was developed and updated by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality in 2019. It has now been widely adopted and translated into different languages worldwide. However, the validity and reliability of the Bengali version of HSOPSC 2.0 (B-HSOPSC 2.0) have not been tested among healthcare professionals. This study aimed to determine the validity and reliability of the B-HSOPSC 2.0 with cross-cultural adaptations, among hospital nurses in Bangladesh.
methodsThe study was conducted among nurses in eight tertiary-level government medical college hospitals in Bangladesh. A two-step study design was employed, encompassing the translation, cultural adaptation, and psychometric evaluation of B-HSOPSC 2.0. The translation process included forward and backward translation by panel, expert consensus, review, and pretesting. Content validity, reliability, and test-retest reliability were assessed. Construct validity was evaluated through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and convergent validity was examined using average variance extraction and Spearman's correlation coefficient.
resultsOut of 7,170 eligible nurses, 4,982 were analyzed (valid response rate: 69.5%), and a subset (n = 424) provided retest responses. The words "manager" and "clinical leader" were removed, and the word "units" was replaced with "wards," as they were deemed inappropriate for the Bangladesh healthcare system. The content validity index provides strong evidence of adequacy for the instrument measurements (I-CVI = 0.83-1.00, S-CVI = 0.98). B-HSOPSC 2.0 demonstrated a good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.70-0.76). The test-retest reliability was acceptable at the group level (ICC = 0.65-0.76) and low in the single measure (0.071, 0.069). In the CFA model, the indices for the 10 and 9 dimensions were CFI = 0.79, 0.83; NFI = 0.78, 0.82; TLI = 0.74, 0.79; GFI = 0.91, 0.92; RMSEA = 0.06, 0.06; SRMR = 0.07, 0.06, respectively.
conclusionsThe psychometric properties of the Bengali version were inconsistent and not sufficiently robust. However, content validity and test-retest reliability were deemed acceptable. Since there is no validated tool to evaluate the patient safety culture in the Bengali version, these study findings may help further to evaluate future nurses' perceived patient safety culture interventions in hospital settings in Bangladesh. Further studies are required, as the psychometric properties of B-HSOPSC 2.0 among other healthcare professionals in Bangladesh remain to be confirmed. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
