Patient- and Clinician-Reported Outcomes and the Outcome Measures in Studies Reporting on Rehabilitation of the Edentulous Maxilla With Implant-Supported Fixed Prosthesis Using Short, Standard-Length and/or Zygomatic Implants: A Systematic Review of Clinical Studies Published in the Last 10 Years.

Puntos clave

This research aims to evaluate reported outcomes in studies on the rehabilitation of the edentulous maxilla with implants.
Conducted a systematic review of clinical studies published in the last ten years.
Analyzed both patient-reported outcomes and clinician-reported outcomes
Reviewed the use of various types of implants, including short, standard-length, and zygomatic implants.
Identified frequent reporting of patient-reported outcomes alongside objective clinician-reported outcomes in trials.
Found inconsistencies due to the use of unstandardized questionnaires for patient-reported outcomes.
Noted that subjective clinician-reported outcomes are infrequently documented in the literature.

Resumen

PROMs and objective ClinROs are often reported together in clinical trials involving short, standard-length or zygomatic implants for implant-supported fixed prostheses in edentulous maxillae. However, the frequent use of unstandardized questionnaires for PROMs hinders sound comparisons across studies. Subjective ClinROs based on clinician perception are rarely reported.
