Correlation of Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System Physical Function Upper Extremity Computer Adaptive Testing, With the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Assessment Form and Simple Shoulder Test in Patients With Shoulder Pain

Measures of Adult Shoulder Function

“…PROMIS PF CAT: 0.581 in rotator cuff disease (64); 0.43 in planned surgery for rotator cuff tear (75); and 0.694 in impingement, with 0.664 for the ASES function subscale and 0.426 for the pain subscale (66). PROMIS PF Upper Extremity CAT: 0.72 in shoulder pain (excluding patients with prior rotator cuff surgery, shoulder surgery in last 6 months, or partial rotator cuff tear) (76) and 0.59 in planned surgery for rotator cuff tear (75). PROMIS Pain Interference CAT: −0.43 in planned surgery for rotator cuff tear (75) and 0.729 in impingement, with 0.667 for the ASES function subscale and 0.594 for the pain subscale (66).…”

“…The PROMIS PF Upper Extremity CAT takes approximately 70 seconds to complete (range 25‐307 seconds) according to one study (276), 61.3 seconds on average (SD 28.8) in another study (277), and 96.9 seconds (SD 25.1) in a third study (278). Because completion of the CAT depends on the exact responses to each item, this dictates the total number of items that are completed and the time involved.…”

“…No floor or ceiling effects have been found in studies including patients with hand or upper extremity conditions (276), patients with shoulder arthritis (278), patients with shoulder pain (277), patients undergoing primary total shoulder arthroplasty (281), patients with varying types of rotator cuff disease (282), and patients with upper extremity fractures (283).…”

“…PROMIS Depression CAT: r 2 = −0.196 (preoperative) and r 2 = −0.431 (postoperative) in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (292), and r = −0.21 in pediatric and adolescent patients in an ambulatory sports medicine clinic (291). ASES: r = 0.71 in shoulder instability (287), r = 0.77 in rotator cuff pathology (282), r = 0.55 in total shoulder arthroplasty (281), r = 0.72 in shoulder pain (across conditions) (277), r = 0.86 in adhesive capsulitis (277), r = 0.49 in failed arthroplasty (277), r = 0.87 in fractures (277), r = 0.55 to 0.73 in instability (277,284), r = 0.88 impingement syndrome (277), r = 0.65 in rotator cuff disease (277), r = 0.74 in other shoulder pain (277), r = 0.57 in shoulder arthritis (278), and r = 0.59 in rotator cuff repair (285). WOSI: r = 0.63 in shoulder instability (287).…”

Using Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System Computer Adaptive Testing Domains to Investigate the Impact of Obesity on Physical Function, Pain Interference, and Mental Health in Sports Medicine Patients

“…Additionally, we did not use any objective measures in our outcome reporting to address physical function, pain interference, or depression. As many studies have validated PROMIS CAT measures against traditional, diagnosis-specific PROM,33–39 our practice is to measure PROMIS CAT domains only, as these measures are more efficient to administer than corresponding legacy scores 10. Lastly, we only utilized the English language version of the PROMIS CAT forms.…”
