AB Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a high symptoms burden that is related to a poorhealth-related quality of life (HRQoL) and high costs of care. Validated instruments may be useful for assessing thesymptoms and monitoring outcomes in these patients. The Palliative care Outcome Scale-Symptoms Renal (POS-SRenal) is a patient-reported outcome measure for assessing symptoms in CKD stage 4–5. This study is the firstcross-cultural adaptation and psychometric analysis of this clinical tool. The purpose of this study is to carry out across-cultural adaptation of the POS-S Renal for Spanish-speaking patients, and to perform an analysis of thepsychometric properties of this questionnaire.Methods: The English version of the POS-S Renal was culturally adapted and translated into Spanish using a doubleforward and backward method. An expert panel evaluated the content validity. The questionnaire was pilot-tested in30 patients. A total of 200 patients with CKD stage 4–5 filled in a modified Spanish version of the POS-S Renal and theMSAS-SF. Statistical analysis to evaluate the psychometric properties of the questionnaire was carried out.
