Abstract：Objective To develop a risk assessment scale for exposed keratopathy in Intensive Care Unit(ICU)patients and test its reliability and validity.Methods A scale was developed based on the literature review,group brainstorming and two rounds of expert consul-tations.Using the convenience sampling method,120 patients admitted to the ICU department of a Class III Grade A hospital in Jiangsu Prov-ince from August 2022 to January 2023 were selected for the survey to test the reliability and validity of the scale.Results The scale includ-ed 13 items in 5 dimensions,including eye assessment,head and face assessment,treatment and nursing,drug use and disease assessment.Five common factors were extracted from exploratory factor analysis,and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 69.945%.The content validity index was 0.879～1.000,and the content validity index was 0.921.Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.767.If the score was≤19,it indicated a low risk.If it was between 20 and 49,it indicated a moderate risk.If it was≥50,it indicated a high risk.Conclusion The risk assessment scale established in the study has good reliability and validity,which can be used to assess the risk of exposed keratopathy in ICU patients.
