Abstract: Objective: To translate Barriers to Enteral Feeding Critically Ill Patients Questionnaire, and to test its reliability and validity. Methods: English version of the questionnaire was translated and back-translated according to Brislin translation model. The reliability and validity of the final Chinese version of the questionnaire was tested on a sample of 545 ICU nurses (345 in Hangzhou tertiary grade A hospital) in Zhejiang Province. Results: Chinese version of the questionnaire included 19 items and 3 subscales. Three factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis, which could explain 69.084% of total variance. The Cronbach's α coefficient (0.875) and test-retest reliability (0.825) was acceptable. The range of item-level content validity index (I-CVI) was from 0.88 to 1.00. The average of scale-level content validity index (S-CVI/Ave) was 0.98. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that all obtained fit values were satisfactory with Chi-square/degrees of freedom 2.110, Root Mean Square Residual 0.150, Root Mean Square Error of Approximation 0.075, Goodness-of-Fit Index 0.853, Adjusted Goodness-of-Fit Index 0.812, Tucker-Lewis Index 0.835, Incremental Fit Index 0.859, Comparative Fit Index 0.856, and Parsimony Goodness of Fit Index 0.669. Conclusions: Chinese version of the questionnaire is reliable and valid, and is an effective tool to assess enteral feeding among critically ill patients.
