Abstract

The Edinburgh Feeding Evaluation in Dementia (EdFED) Scale was designed to identify feeding difficulties for people with moderate to severe dementia. Its Canadian-French cross-cultural adaptation was carried out, as part of an experimental study, whose secondary objective was to document its construct validity. A back-translation method was followed. The EdFED-f was used during a meal with 26 elderly residents who had cognitive disorders. There was a significant correlation between EdFED-f scores and energy intakes calculated using a visual estimation of plate wash method (r=-0,50, p=0,009). EdFED-f scores also showed a significant difference according to the percentage of food consumed at meals (p=0,015). These results support the validity of the EdFED-f to assess feeding difficulties among elderly French-speaking Canadians living in residential and long-term care centers.

Résumé

L’échelle d’évaluation des difficultés à l’alimentation d’Edimbourg (EdFED) a été conçue pour identifier les difficultés d’alimentation des personnes atteintes de démence modérée à sévère. Son adaptation transculturelle franco-canadienne a été réalisée dans le cadre d’une étude expérimentale dont l’objectif secondaire était de documenter sa validité de construit. Une méthode de traduction inversée a été suivie. L’EdFED-f a été utilisé lors d’un repas avec 26 personnes âgées ayant des troubles cognitifs. Il y avait une corrélation significative entre les scores EdFED-f et les apports énergétiques calculés à l’aide d’une méthode d’estimation visuelle des restes (r = -0,50, p = 0,009). Les scores EdFED-f ont également montré une différence significative selon le pourcentage de nourriture consommée aux repas (p = 0,015). Ces résultats confirment la validité de l’EdFED-f pour évaluer les difficultés d’alimentation chez les Canadiens âgés vivant dans des centres d’hébergement et de soins de longue durée.
