Abstract: Objective: To translate and develop the Chinese version of Fall Risk Factor Score Table (C-FRFST) and to evaluate reliability, validity of the C-FRFST. Methods: The C-FRFST was adapted following the standard process of "Translation-Back translation-Cultural Adjustment-Preliminary Test-Field Test". Using C-FRFST to assess fall risk in 238 cases of cardiovascular department and analyze the reliability and validity of the test results. Results: The C-FRFST had 11 dimensions and 27 items. The Cronbach's α was 0.865, and the repeatability was 0.985. The inter-rater reliability was 0.988. The content validity index (CVI) for each item was ranged from 0.9 to 1.0 and the CVI for overall table was 0.95. Exploratory factor analysis yielded with an eleven-factor solution, explaining 62.868% of the total variance. There were significant differences in total score of discriminate validity. Conclusion:The C-FRFST shows good reliability and validity can be used by clinical nurses to assess fall risk for hospitalized elderly patients.
