Can Foot Exercises Alter Foot Posture, Strength, And Walking Foot Pressure Patterns In People With Severe Flat Foot?, Jeff Houck, Lacey Seidl, Austin Montgomery, Joshua Keefer, Miranda Walker
Faculty Publications - College of Physical Therapy
Introduction/Purpose: Muscle training muscle control for barefoot running (i.e. doming seated[DS] and standing[DSt]) and post foot and ankle injury (i.e. seated plantar flexion and inversion[SPFI]) are common. Although studies demonstrated improvement in foot posture (validated foot posture index [FPI]) immediately following a 4-week exercise program this was not assessed in people with flatfoot. Also, more rigorous assessment of foot function is lacking (i.e. foot posture, strength, and plantar pressure during walking). There is clearly a need for more rigorous clinical data on the effect of foot exercises. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the immediate effect of …

Clinical Utilization Of Patient Reported Outcome (Promis) Scores For Surgical Reconstruction Of Posterior Tibialis Tendon Dysfunction, Michael Anderson, Jeff Houck, Adolph Flemister, Judith Baumhauer, John Ketz, Benedict Digiovanni, David Ciufo, Irvin Oh
Faculty Publications - College of Physical Therapy
Introduction/Purpose: Previous studies have demonstrated that preoperative Patient Reported Outcome Instrumentation System (PROMIS) scores effectively predict improvement in foot and ankle surgery. Adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) and Posterior Tibialis Tendon Dysfunction (PTTD) are a common surgical problem, but it is unclear if the specific thresholds for the physical function (PF), pain interference (PI) and depression published previously for all foot and ankle surgeries apply to a specific diagnosis. Furthermore, the interplay of PROMIS scores and clinical variables has not been evaluated. The purpose of this study was: 1) to investigate the change in PROMIS scales and radiographic measurements from …
Generalizability And Validation Of Promis Scores To Predict Surgical Success In Foot And Ankle Patients: A Tale Of Two Academic Centers, Judith Baumhauer, Michael Anderson, Charles Saltzman, Man Hung, Florian Nickisch, Alexej Barg, Timothy Beals, Jeff Houck
Generalizability And Validation Of Promis Scores To Predict Surgical Success In Foot And Ankle Patients: A Tale Of Two Academic Centers, Judith Baumhauer, Michael Anderson, Charles Saltzman, Man Hung, Florian Nickisch, Alexej Barg, Timothy Beals, Jeff Houck

Introduction/Purpose: Patient-reported outcomes are advancing clinical care by improving patient satisfaction and engagement. A recent publication reported preoperative PROMIS scores to be highly predictive in selecting patients who would and would not benefit from foot and ankle (F/A) surgery. Although this publication used the data from 5 fellowship trained foot and ankle surgeons at one institution, the generalizability to other patient populations and geographic areas is unknown. This validation study assesses the pre-operative PROMIS physical function (PF) and pain interference (PI) t-scores as a predictor of post-operative success from a separate geographic area.

Objectives: Compare a disease specific questionnaire (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons [ASES]) and a multidimensional global health scale (Patient reported outcome measurement system [PROMIS]) across a variety of shoulder conditions
When Are The Patients Satisfied With Their Outcome? Correlation Of Promis Values With Patient Acceptable Symptom State (Pass) Scores In Foot And Ankle Patients, Michael Anderson, Judith Baumhauer, Adolph Flemister, John Ketz, Irvin Oh, Benedict Digiovani, Jeff Houck
When Are The Patients Satisfied With Their Outcome? Correlation Of Promis Values With Patient Acceptable Symptom State (Pass) Scores In Foot And Ankle Patients, Michael Anderson, Judith Baumhauer, Adolph Flemister, John Ketz, Irvin Oh, Benedict Digiovani, Jeff Houck

Introduction/Purpose: PROMIS values are being adopted due to ease of use and influence on clinical decision making. Studies support the use of PROMIS physical function (PF), pain interference (PI), and Depression (D) for pre-surgical decision making. Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) is a validated outcome measure commonly used in other areas of medicine and surgery that captures when patient’s symptoms reach a daily acceptable level. Knowing what PROMIS scores are associated with a patient’s PASS(Yes)/(No) rating would further enhance the use of PROMIS scales. The purpose of this study: 1) association of PROMIS scales with a PASS rating, 2) threshold …
The Road To Recovery For Bunion Surgery: Data Analytic Plots To Target Patient Progress, Ashlee Macdonald, Jeff Houck, Judith Baumhauer
The Road To Recovery For Bunion Surgery: Data Analytic Plots To Target Patient Progress, Ashlee Macdonald, Jeff Houck, Judith Baumhauer
Faculty Publications - College of Physical Therapy
Introduction/Purpose: Patient reported outcomes (PROs) can provide information on individual patient’s progress throughout a treatment course and additionally, with common surgeries, powerful numbers can be generated to provide data analytic curves to provide a recovery road map for patients and surgeons. Those who deviate negatively from the predicted path may have a complication and early intervention can be initiated. Those who deviate positively have the potential to need less physical therapy, early return to sports or work. Hallux valgus (HV) is a common condition of the foot with 4.4 million patients seeking care yearly and surgery is equally common. The …
Reading The Future: Predicting Who Will Benefit From Bunion Surgery, Ashlee Macdonald, Jeff Houck, Judith Baumhauer
Reading The Future: Predicting Who Will Benefit From Bunion Surgery, Ashlee Macdonald, Jeff Houck, Judith Baumhauer
Faculty Publications - College of Physical Therapy
Introduction/Purpose: Hallux valgus is a common condition of the foot with 4.4 million patients seeking care yearly for this condition. A previous study suggested specific pre-operative cut-off scores based on Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) physical function (PF), pain interference (PI), and depression (D) values could predict post-operative outcomes in foot and ankle surgery. Though hallux valgus correction, among other procedures, were identified as one of the most common surgeries in the previous study, specific conditions were not considered separately. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of applying a published comprehensive pre-surgical PROMIS profile …

Collegiate volleyball (VB) players are at risk for sports injuries. Reported time-loss injury rates for female Division III (D III) collegiate VB players range from 4.0 to 5.4 injuries per 1000 athletic exposures (AEs). Identifying risk factors in this population may help coaches to reduce injury rates via targeted training programs. The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to determine the ability of 2 functional performance tests (FPTs) [the standing long jump (SLJ) and/or the single-leg hop (SLH) for distance] to identify female D III VB players who may be at an increased risk for a non-contact time-loss lower …

Faculty Publications - College of Physical Therapy
Introduction/Purpose: The use of patient-reported outcomes (PRO) continues to expand beyond research to involve standard of care assessments. Although the PROMIS physical function (PF) is normalized to a T-score it is unclear how to interpret and apply this information in the daily care of patients. The T-score is abstract and unanchored to patient abilities impairing its clinical utility when shared with the patient. Patient questions are concrete such as “when will I be able to run again after this procedure?” The purpose of this research was to link PROMIS PF T-scores with physical function activities and provide a visual map …
