Key result
PROM-CR1 demonstrates strong validity and test-retest reliability following outpatient cardiac rehabilitation.
Why the study?
A patient-reported outcome measure for outpatient cardiac rehabilitation required testing for acceptability, validity, and test-retest reliability.
Is the PROM-CR1 a valid and reliable patient-reported outcome measure for patients completing an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programme?
Observational (n=138)
Is the PROM-CR1 a valid and reliable patient-reported outcome measure for patients completing an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programme?
The PROM-CR1 is a valid and reliable 30-item patient-reported outcome measure for evaluating outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programmes.
PROM-CR1 shows acceptable reliability in cardiac rehab; leaves open routine adoption pending larger prospective validation.
Background/Aims This article details how a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM), termed PROM-CR1, was tested for acceptability, validity and test-retest reliability at the end of an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programme. Methods PROM-CR1 was completed by 138 service users (mean age 66.95 years, range 42–94 years; 115 males, 23 females; with a range of cardiac diagnoses), who used the tool at home twice: once at the end of the outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programme and 1 week later. Results PROM-CR1 demonstrated good acceptability, construct and concurrent validity, and test-retest reliability. The construct validity analysis highlighted that one item required removal from the PROM-CR1. Conclusions A finalised 30-item version of the tool will now be widely disseminated and further evaluated within cardiac rehabilitation clinical practice.

Cowie et al. (2019) conducted an observational in Cardiac diagnoses requiring rehabilitation (n=138). PROM-CR1 was evaluated on Acceptability, validity and test-retest reliability. The PROM-CR1 demonstrated good acceptability, construct and concurrent validity, and test-retest reliability among 138 service users completing an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programme.
