Abstract

To explore the inter-rater reliability of the Swedish translation of NCP-QUEST in a Swedish context and investigate the level of agreement between Diet-NCP-Audit and NCP-QUEST in assessment of documentation quality. A retrospective audit was conducted of 40 electronic patient records written by dietitians at one University Hospital in Sweden. NCP-QUEST showed good inter-rater reliability for the quality category (ICC = 0.85) and excellent inter-rater reliability for total score (ICC = 0.97).

Keywords: Dietitian; Documentation Quality; Medical Record; Nutrition Care Process.
