Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: This cross-sectional study aimed to create and evaluate a care needs scale for mothers of children with congenital heart disease (CHD) to determine its psychometric properties.
METHODS: This methodological research was conducted with 155 mothers whose children were diagnosed with CHD and were treated at a university hospital. The study\'s methodology included scale development, specialist opinions, and a pilot test. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, and reliability assessments.
RESULTS: The 11-item scale was created using component analysis, expert comments, and pilot testing. It was divided into two categories: Information Needs Regarding Disease and Treatment and Needs Regarding Care. The Exploratory Factor Analysis revealed a 2-factor structure, explaining 41.5% of the variance. Reliability analysis showed reliable dimensions, and Tukey\'s scalability test indicated the scale requires separate dimension evaluation. The model fit indices were obtained as CMIN/DF (72.751/41) = 1.774, GFI = 0.925, IFI = 0.923, TLI = 0.893, CFI = 0.920, RMSEA = 0.071, SRMR = 0.063. The Cronbach\'s alpha coefficient for subdimension 1 was 0.758, and for subdimension 2 was 0.678, indicating reliable dimensions.
CONCLUSIONS: The developed scale provides a valuable tool for assessing the care needs of mothers of children with CHD, contributing to enhancing maternal support programs in pediatric cardiology clinics.
CONCLUSIONS: Assessment of the care needs of mothers who have children with CHD is promising for the development of educational programs on this subject and to ensure the competence of mothers for care.

摘要：
目的：这项横断面研究旨在为先天性心脏病（CHD）儿童的母亲创建和评估护理需求量表，以确定其心理测量特性。
方法：这项方法学研究是对155名母亲进行的，这些母亲的孩子被诊断为冠心病，并在大学医院接受治疗。研究的方法包括量表开发，专家意见,和试点测试。数据分析涉及描述性统计，探索性和验证性因素分析，和可靠性评估。
结果：使用组分分析创建了11项量表，专家评论,和试点测试。它分为两类：有关疾病和治疗的信息需求和有关护理的需求。探索性因子分析揭示了双因素结构，解释了41.5%的差异。可靠性分析显示可靠的尺寸，和Tukey的可伸缩性测试表明，该规模需要单独的维度评估。模型拟合指数为CMIN/DF(72.751/41)=1.774,GFI=0.925,FI=0.923,TLI=0.893,CFI=0.920,RMSEA=0.071,SRMR=0.063。子维度1的Cronbachα系数为0.758，子维度2的Cronbachα系数为0.678，表明可靠的维度。
结论：开发的量表为评估CHD儿童母亲的护理需求提供了有价值的工具，有助于加强儿科心脏病学诊所的孕产妇支持计划。
结论：对患有冠心病的母亲的护理需求进行评估对于制定有关该主题的教育计划并确保母亲的护理能力是有希望的。
