Study Question: What are the psychometric properties in mainland China of the 30-item Endometriosis Health Profile (EHP-30) translated into simplified Chinese? Summary Answer: The simplified Chinese version of the EHP-30 is a valid, reliable and acceptable tool for the measurement of the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of women with endometriosis in the context of mainland China. What is Known Already: Endometriosis can critically affect women's HRQoL. The EHP-30 is currently the most reliable instrument to measure the HRQoL in women with endometriosis. Study Design , Size, Duration This cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary referral university hospital from February 2012 to August 2012 in Beijing, P. R. China. Participants/Materials, Setting, Methods The translation and cultural adaptation of the EHP-30 was performed according to accepted guidelines. The study included 336 women with endometriosis. Psychometric evaluation included factor analysis, convergent validity, measurement of internal consistency, item-total correlations and data completeness, descriptive statistics, and the determination of floor and ceiling effects. Main Results and the Role of Chance: Factor analysis confirmed the validity of the five-factor structure of the EHP-30 core questionnaire, which explained 79.51% of the total variance. The correlations of related subscale scores between EHP-30 and Short Form-36 were all significant. Cronbach's α for internal consistency across each scale ranged 0.89-0.97 for the core questionnaire and 0.80-0.96 for the modular questionnaire. No <97.67% of data completeness was achieved. Floor effects were observed in three scales: self-image (19.64%), children (26.67%) and medical profession (15.19%). No ceiling effects were found. The control and powerlessness scale had the highest median score (54.17) in the core questionnaire, whereas the infertility module (median = 56.25) had the highest score in the modular section. Limitations, Reasons For Caution The study was conducted in a referral centre for the treatment of endometriosis, thereby leading to overrepresentation of severe symptoms of endometriosis. Furthermore, the test-retest reliability and responsiveness of the questionnaire were not evaluated in this study. Wider Implications of the Finding: s: Our study addresses the urgent need for a valid and reliable instrument to measure the HRQoL of female patients with endometriosis in mainland China.
