Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Neuropathy-and foot ulcer-specific quality of life instrument (NeuroQoL) is not available in Hindi language which is one of the most spoken languages in the world. Hence, we aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt and content validate NeuroQoL into Hindi language (NeuroQoL-H).
METHODS: NeuroQoL is translated and cross-culturally adapted into Hindi language (NeuroQoL-H) using the guidelines proposed by Beaton and colleagues. Both item and scale levels content validity index (I-CVI & S-CVI) were reported for the validation and pretesting was performed with, n = 51 patients with diabetes. Floor and ceiling effects were reported.
RESULTS: Total score of content validated and pretested, NeuroQoL-H with, n = 51 patients with diabetes is, 60 (36,109). For all the items in NeuroQoL-H, I-CVI ≥ 0.8 and S-CVI = 0.95. The floor effect is (24 %) while the ceiling effect is (1 %).
CONCLUSIONS: NeuroQoL-H scale is a valid outcome measure among Hindi speaking patients with diabetes.

摘要：
背景：神经病和足部溃疡特异性生活质量量表（NeuroQoL）在印地语中不可用，印地语是世界上最常用的语言之一。因此，我们的目的是翻译，跨文化适应和内容验证NeuroQoL转化为印地语（NeuroQoL-H）。
方法：使用Beaton及其同事提出的指南将NeuroQoL翻译并跨文化改编为印地语（NeuroQoL-H）。项目和量表水平含量有效性指数(I-CVI&S-CVI)均报告用于验证，并进行预测试，n=51例糖尿病患者。报告了地板和天花板的影响。
结果：经过验证和预先测试的内容总分，NeuroQoL-H，n=51的糖尿病患者，60（36,109）。对于NeuroQoL-H中的所有项目，I-CVI≥0.8，S-CVI=0.95。地板效应为（24％），而天花板效应为（1％）。
结论：NeuroQoL-H量表在印地语型糖尿病患者中是一种有效的预后指标。
