In 2004, the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) was initiated by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). However, clinicians are challenged to select the right PROs because of the limited evidence for the measurement properties like reliability, validity or responsiveness and because of feasibility aspects5,6. diagnostic, prognostic or evaluative reasons. For measuring PF, a wide variety of PROs have been developed for different measurement purposes, e.g. To improve communication and patient management in patients with SD, Patient reported outcomes (PROs) are used by physical therapists and other care givers in clinical practice4. Physical therapist use several interventions in patients with back pain, like exercise therapy, spinal manipulation or massage, aiming to reduce pain and improve physical function (PF)3. The two conditions with the highest proportion of YLD in 2010, according to the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010, were spinal disorders (SD) low back pain (49,6 %) and neck pain (20,1 %)2. Musculoskeletal disorders have a high prevalence and cause a high burden of disability worldwide, accounting for 21,3% of the total Years Lived with Disability(YLD)1. Introduction (max 1000 woorden, huidig …, geen subheadings gebruiken) Keywords: PROMIS, physical function, spinal disorders, measurement propertiesġ. Floor and ceiling effects… Time for administration of the CAT was … Results: The search identified five studies one on the PF item bank, three on PF CAT applications and one study on the 10-item PF short form. Available evidence on reliability, validity and responsiveness of the included measurement instruments was rated according to published quality criteria. Methods: A systematic literature search was performed in the Pubmed, Embase, Cinahl and Pedro databases, to identify studies on the evaluation of measurement properties of PROMIS physical function scales in patients with spinal disorders. The measurement properties of these physical function measures in clinical settings with patients with spinal disorders have not been evaluated in a systematic way. For the physical function domain, an item bank was developed which can be administered using short-forms and computerized adaptive test applications. Aim: The aim of this study was to critically appraise the evidence on the measurement properties of the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) physical function measures, used in clinical samples of patients with spinal disorders.īackground: The PROMIS system was established to improve quality and comparability of health outcomes measures.
