Performance Of The Promis In Patients Undergoing 3 Common Elbow Procedures, Edward O. Rojas, Natalie Glass, Jessell Owens, Chris A. Anthony, Matthew Bollier, Brian R. Wolf, Carolyn Hettrich

Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine Faculty Publications

Background: Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction, distal biceps tendon repair, and elbow arthroscopic surgery are common elbow procedures performed in active patients.

Hypothesis: We hypothesized (1) good to excellent correlation between Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) instruments and traditional orthopaedic upper extremity patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures; (2) that PROMIS instruments would demonstrate ceiling effects; and (3) that the PROMIS physical function computer adaptive test (PF CAT) would demonstrate a low question burden compared with other PRO instruments.

Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 2.

Methods: A total of 76 patients undergoing UCL repair/reconstruction, distal biceps tendon repair, …


Performance Of The Promis After Operative Interventions For Shoulder Instability, Christina J. Hajewski, Natalie A. Glass, Robert W. Westermann, Matthew Bollier, Brian R. Wolf, Carolyn Hettrich May 2019

Performance Of The Promis After Operative Interventions For Shoulder Instability, Christina J. Hajewski, Natalie A. Glass, Robert W. Westermann, Matthew Bollier, Brian R. Wolf, Carolyn Hettrich

Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine Faculty Publications

Background: The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) was developed to capture patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in an efficient manner. Few studies have assessed this instrument postoperatively.

Purpose: To compare the PROMIS Physical Function computer adaptive test (PROMIS PF CAT) and Upper Extremity (PROMIS UE) item bank to other previously validated PRO instruments and to evaluate ceiling and floor effects and construct validity responsiveness in patients who underwent operative interventions for shoulder instability.

Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 2.

Methods: A total of 72 patients who underwent operative interventions for shoulder instability completed the American Shoulder and Elbow …
