Translation and Validity of the Chinese Version of the Hypoglycemia Confidence Scale in Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Using Both Basal and Prandial Insulins: A Psychometric Analysis with Cultural Adaptation
Background: Hypoglycemia confidence (HC) reflects a patient’s belief in their ability to avoid hypoglycemia-related adverse events and is crucial for optimizing glycemic management in insulin-treated type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to translate and validate the Chinese version of the Hypoglycemia Confidence Scale (HCS-C) in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using both basal and prandial insulin administration (T2D-BP).
