Resumo: Introduction: The validation tools are essential in epidemiological research, especially for the consensus case definition and comparison of results. Currently, the instrument most commonly used to identify functional dyspepsia is the Rome III questionnaire, which is not validated for the Portuguese population. Objectives: To validate the Rome III questionnaire for the assessment of functional dyspepsia in Portuguese adults. Methods: The questionnaire was translated following the recommendations of Rome III. A total of 166 adults completed the questionnaire. The identification of the category of functional dyspepsia among adults was based on the presence of one or more symptoms from the total of 4 symptoms that the scale allows to assess from a total of 6 items. The internal consistency, reproducibility and contents analysis were evaluated using the program SPSS 23.0. Results: Alpha Cronbach coefficient from the total of 18 items measured was 0.89. For functional dyspepsia category (assessed by 6 items) was 0.76 and the alpha Cronbach’s based on standardized items was 0.85. Conclusions: We validated, for Portugal, the Rome III questionnaire for the diagnosis of functional gastrointestinal disorders, particularly for functional dyspepsia among adults. These results suggest that this tool will be useful for research in the Portuguese population.

En la actualidad, el instrumento más utilizado para identificar la dispepsia funcional es el cuestionario de Roma III, que no está validado para la población portuguesa. Objetivos: validar el cuestionario para la dispepsia funcional Roma III en los adultos portugueses. Métodos: El cuestionario fue traducido siguiendo las recomendaciones de Roma III. Un total de 166 individuos completaron el cuestionario. La identificación de la categoría dispepsia funcional de adultos basada en uno o más síntomas de los 4 síntomas que la escala permite evaluar de um total de 6 artículos. El análisis de consistencia, reproducibilidad y contenido interno se evaluaron con el programa SPSS 23.0. Resultados: El coeficiente alfa de Cronbach del total de 18 artículos medido fue de 0,89. Para la categoría de dispepsia funcional (evaluado por 6 artículos) fue de 0,76 y de basada en los puntos estandarizados alfa de Cronbach fue de 0,85. Conclusiones: Hemos validado para Portugal, el cuestionario Roma III para el diagnóstico de trastornos gastrointestinales funcionales, sobre todo para la dispepsia funcional en adultos. Estos resultados sugieren que esta herramienta será útil para la investigación en la población portuguesa.Introdução: A validação de instrumentos é essencial na investigação epidemiológica, especialmente para a definição consensual de caso e comparação de resultados.
