Validity and reliability of the turkish version of the premature ejaculation treatment evaluation (peto) scoring system
Abstract
Abstract Objectives Premature ejaculation (PE) is a common sexual dysfunction. The “Premature Ejaculation Treatment Outcome (PETO) Scoring System” is used to evaluate the response to applied treatments. The aim of this study is to evaluate the validity and reliability of PETO in Turkish. Methods After obtaining permission from the original author of the survey, the Turkish translation was made by a linguist who speaks both languages as if they were their native language. Then, the deficiencies in the translation were determined and made appropriate by 3 urologists. Patients aged 18-50 who applied to the urology clinic with complaints of PE between February 2023 and January 2024 were included in the study. The patients were asked to fill out the PEDT, PEP and PETO questionnaires before starting premature ejaculation treatment. The patients were asked to fill out these forms again at their check-ups 1 month after the treatment. The patients’ intravaginal ejaculation delay times (IELT) were estimated according to the patients’ statements. Results A total of 71 patients were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 46.51 ± 11.52 (29-68). The mean IELT before treatment was 46.60 ± 37.09 (10-180) seconds, PEDT score was 12.50 ± 2.55 (8-20), and PEP index score was 2.52 ± 0.42. The mean PETO total score of the patients after treatment was 9.15 ± 6.31 (1-27). The Cronbach alpha value of the questionnaire was 0.912, and the correlation coefficient for the class was…
