Summary

Dyspnea is a subjective experience influenced by physiological, cognitive, behavioral, and sociocultural factors. While self-reported scales are commonly used to assess dyspnea severity, they are unsuitable for patients unable to communicate, such as those with cognitive impairment or sedation. The Respiratory Distress Observation Scale (RDOS), developed by Campbell in 2008, is a reliable and valid tool for evaluating dyspnea in non-communicative palliative care patients. The RDOS has been adapted into Chinese and Italian, but a Turkish version is lacking. This study aims to assess the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the RDOS.
