This can be useful to improve the quality of care provided to individuals who self-harm.Aim The purpose of this study was to revise and adapt the SHAS for use in Sweden and evaluate the psychometric properties of this Swedish version (Self-Harm Antipathy Scale - Swedish Revised; SHAS-SR).Methods A sample of 596 employees within psychiatric healthcare was recruited (from a total of 3507, response rate 17.0%), the majority encountering self-harming individuals regularly at work. Participants completed the SHAS-SR questionnaire along with a scale assessing community attitudes towards individuals with mental illness (New CAMI-S). The sample was randomly split in half (n = 298 each). Exploratory factor analysis was performed on one subsample and confirmatory on the other. Confirmatory factor analysis on the original SHAS model, and convergent validity testing against New CAMI-S, used the whole sample.Results The final version of the SHAS-SR included 17 items forming three factors. Convergent validity was established (r = -0.57, ρ = -0.48, p  less then  0.001). The SHAS-SR and all its subscales demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (α = 0.73-0.79, ω = 0.78-0.79).Conclusion This study indicates that the SHAS-SR is reliable and valid when assessing attitudes towards self-harm among a sample of Swedish psychiatric healthcare staff. The scale could be useful for assessing the impact of attitude interventions to improve healthcare services. It may, however, have limited applicability for staff not working in caring roles.Objectives It is hypothesized that the risk of hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) may be lower with ferric carboxymaltose than iron dextran because of its non-dextran carbohydrate moiety. This study compares the risk of HSRs between iron dextran and ferric carbox
