The Oropharyngeal Mucositis-Specific Quality-of-Life questionnaire (OMQoL) is an acceptable instrument for measuring the quality of life in these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Persian version of OMQoL questionnaire. Methods This study was a cross-sectional and multi-centric research. After translation from English to Persian, back translation, and cultural adaptation, the Persian version of the questionnaire was prepared. One hundred forty-four patients suffering from oral mucositis referred to three different university affiliated hospitals related to Zahedan, Kerman and Tehran Universities of Medical Sciences, were participated in this study. Then the questionnaire was completed by trained interviewers. The reliability was assessed by Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, and validity was measured through factor analysis, and construct validity (including discriminant validity, and convergent validity) methods. Results Cronbach's alpha in all dimensions was higher than 0.9 that indicated a perfect internal consistency. The results of factor analysis indicated that the dimensions specified in the Persian version were the same as the original version (Factor loading of all items > 0.4). The correlation coefficient for all items was more than 0.75, and the convergence validity was 100% in all dimensions. Conclusion The results of this study showed that the reliability, and validity of Persian version of OMQoL were acceptable, which can be used to measure the quality of life in patients with oral mucositis.Fatemeh Sadat HasheminasabMona PourpashaAzizallah DehghanMahboubeh Yari GalousalariSeyed Mehdi HashemiMohammad SetayeshBMCarticleOral mucositisValidityReliabilityOMQoLQuality of lifeIranDentistryRK1-715ENBMC Oral Health, Vol 21, Iss 1, Pp 1-6 (2021)
