Introduction. The Prolapse Quality of Life (P-QoL) questionnaire is a simple and reliable tool for assessing the severity of genital prolapse symptoms and their impact on women's quality of life. Objective. To adapt and assess the validity, reliability, reproducibility and feasibility of the P-QoL questionnaire for women in Kazakhstan to use it as a tool to assess the severity of symptoms and quality of life of women with genital prolapse, as well as a simple tool for "self-assessment" in women with prolapse. Materials and methods. To assess the understanding of the questions, 20 patients with prolapse symptoms speaking Russian and 20 patients speaking Kazakh were invited. The next stage selected 175 patients with symptoms of prolapse and 81 patients with asymptomatic prolapse. Cross-cultural adaptation was carried out by the method of translation - reverse translation. Validity, reliability and feasibility of the questionnaire were assessed. Results. The process of linguistic adaptation showed that women in Kazakhstan easily understand the content of the Kazakhstan version of the P-QoL questionnaire. There were statistically significant differences between the symptomatic and non-prolapse group. The Kazakh version of P-QoL showed high internal consistency and reliability by repeated testing in all respects. The average time to complete the questionnaire was 10.1 minutes. All women found the questionnaire simple. Conclusion. In our study, the P-QoL questionnaire was adapted and validated to measure the severity of prolapse symptoms and the impact on quality of life.
