Preoperative Promis Depression Scores Can Predict Failure To Improve After Trapeziectomy And Lrti, Shreya Balusu, Hardy Evans Md, Eric Jiang Md, Matthew Myhand, Noopur Ranganathan, Charles Day Md Mar 2023

Preoperative Promis Depression Scores Can Predict Failure To Improve After Trapeziectomy And Lrti, Shreya Balusu, Hardy Evans Md, Eric Jiang Md, Matthew Myhand, Noopur Ranganathan, Charles Day Md

Medical Student Research Symposium

INTRODUCTION: Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) scores have been utilized in setting realistic post-intervention expectations. Having a model to stratify likelihood of improvement based on pre-operative variables may allow for better decision making and patient counseling. We hypothesized that preoperative PROMIS scores correlate with patients’ subjective level of improvement after trapeziectomy and ligament reconstruction with tendon interposition (LRTI)

METHODS: Retrospective chart review was performed to identify patients who underwent trapeziectomy and LRTI. Demographic data along with preoperative PROMIS Upper Extremity (UE), Pain Interference (PI), Depression (DP), and QuickDASH (QD) scores were collected. At their follow-up appointment, patients were asked …

Introduction

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) scores have been utilized in setting realistic post-intervention expectations. Predicting likelihood of improvement based on pre-operative variables may allow for better decision-making and patient counseling. We hypothesized that preoperative PROMIS scores correlate with patients’ subjective level of improvement after trapeziectomy and ligament reconstruction with tendon interposition (LRTI)

Methods

Retrospective chart review was performed to identify patients who underwent trapeziectomy and LRTI. Preoperative PROMIS Upper Extremity (UE), Pain Interference (PI), Depression (DP), and QuickDASH (QD) scores were collected. At follow-up appointments, patients were asked an anchor question: “Since your treatment, how would you rate …
