Abstract

Background: The systematic evaluation of the quality of life is essential in the management of patients with chronic bowel disease ( IBD) inflammatory diseases.
aim: Translate in Tunisian Arabic dialect the English version of «inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire» (UK- IBDQ ) and validated by studying its psychometric validity, discriminative ability, reliability and sensitivity to change.
methods: 80 Tunisian patients with IBD completed the Tunisian version of the IBDQ (T- IBDQ ) , a visual analog scale , the SF- 36, the Harvey- Bradshaw index for Crohn's disease , and the index Simple clinical colitis activity for ulcerative colitis.
results: The T- IBDQ included in the final version 5 fields. The internal validity of the items was satisfactory for all patients. TIBDQ was correlated with scores of SF- 36, visual analog scale scores and indices of activity of IBD. T- IBDQ distinguish between active disease and inactive disease . He was also sensitive to changes
in disease activity .
Conclusion : We validated in this work a Tunisian dialect Arabic version of the IBDQ : T- IBDQ . Its validity, discriminative ability , reliability and sensitivity to change were demonstrated.

Keywords:
