Do PROMIS UE and PROMIS PF CAT correlate with traditional patient-reported outcomes in patients with preoperative rotator cuff pathology?
PROMIS UE and PROMIS PF CAT are valid patient-reported outcome alternatives with high correlation to traditional measures in patients with preoperative rotator cuff pathology.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May offer efficient PRO alternatives for preoperative RC assessment; extends correlative evidence but leaves open impact on clinical practice.
PURPOSE: To evaluate the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System upper extremity item bank (PROMIS UE) and physical function computerized adaptive test (PROMIS PF CAT) in patients with rotator cuff (RC) pathology at their preoperative clinic visit. METHODS: Patient data were collected from January 2015 to September 2015. Patients with a preoperative diagnosis of RC pathology were prospectively enrolled at the time of their surgical indication for RC repair. Each patient was asked to fill out the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Assessment Form, Marx Shoulder Activity Scale, Short Form 36 Health Survey Physical Function and General Health (SF-36 PF and GH), EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D), PROMIS PF CAT, and PROMIS UE. Correlation was defined as excellent (>0.7), excellent-good (0.61-0.7), good (0.4-0.6), and poor (0.2-0.3). RESULTS: Patient data were collected from January 2015 to September 2015. No patients were excluded from participation in the study. In 82 patients with preoperative RC pathology, the PROMIS UE showed excellent correlation with American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Assessment Form (r = 0.77, P < .01), WORC (r = 0.73, P < .01), and the EQ-5D (r = 0.73, P < .01); there was excellent-good correlation with the SF-36 PF (r = .66, P < .01) and PROMIS PF CAT (r = .70, P < .01). The PROMIS PF CAT showed excellent correlation with the SF-36 PF (r = 0.77, P < .01); there was excellent-good correlation with EQ-5D (r = 0.65, P < .01) and WORC (r = 0.61, P < .01). There were no significant floor or ceiling effects using the PROMIS UE item bank or PROMIS PF CAT. CONCLUSIONS: We report that in a patient population with preoperative RC pathology, the PROMIS UE and PROMIS CAT are valid patient-reported outcome alternatives that have high correlation with traditional shoulder and upper extremity patient-reported outcomes. We find a decreased question burden using the PROMIS PF CAT. We find no significant floor or ceiling effects present in the PROMIS UE or PROMIS PF CAT. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II, prospective diagnostic study.

Anthony et al. (2017) conducted an observational in Rotator cuff pathology (n=82). PROMIS UE and PROMIS PF CAT vs. Traditional patient-reported outcomes (WORC, ASES, SF-36, EQ-5D) was evaluated on Correlation with traditional patient-reported outcomes (r = 0.77, p=< .01). The PROMIS UE and PROMIS PF CAT demonstrated excellent to good correlation with traditional patient-reported outcomes in patients with preoperative rotator cuff pathology.
