Abstract

Background: The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) developed by the National Institutes of Health provides a standardized method for collecting outcomes data from sports medicine patient populations.

Methods: The objective of this scoping review is to report on PROMIS utilization in orthopedic sports medicine research and practice. We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library using keywords and database-specific subject headings to identify studies that reported PROMIS utilization. Inclusion criteria were the use or mention of PROMIS in any population of patients commonly treated by orthopedic sports medicine physicians.

Results: Following a screening process, we included 67 studies published from 2019 through 2022 in this review. A near-equal distribution of studies was published per year during this period. Twenty-four domains were assessed across the studies. Among studies with adult populations, the Pain Interference (45 studies, 67%) and Physical Function (37 studies, 55%) domains were the 2 most reported by researchers. Upper Extremity (4 studies, 6%) and Mobility (3 studies, 4%) were the 2 most used domains in studies involving pediatric populations.

Conclusion: Our results demonstrate consistent utilization of PROMIS domains in the field of sports medicine. Researchers commonly used PROMIS with other legacy measures, comparing the scores to one another to assess responsiveness and validity. This review provides evidence that PROMIS domains are being used to collect data on a variety of factors related to sports medicine patient outcomes that may help physicians better understand the complexities of the recovery and rehabilitation process.

INTRODUCTION

In the field of orthopedics, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are commonly used because of the transition from volume-based to value-based health care and the increased focus on outcomes rather than costs.1 Historically, numerous legacy PROMs have been used to collect information from specific subsets of orthopedic patients. The International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Form, Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale, and Tegner Activity Scale are 3 of the most common forms used to evaluate patient-reported outcomes in patients who undergo anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery.2 One limitation of these legacy PROMs is that many forms are often used to track outcomes. In a review of 119 ACL reconstruction studies published in high impact factor orthopedic journals, Makhni et al reported that 16 different PROMs were used to assess outcomes.2 This variability creates challenges when comparing measures from different populations and attempting to draw evidence-based conclusions.

The National Institutes of Health developed the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) to provide a standardized method of recording PROMs across common medical conditions.3 Domains within the system include questions related to physical function, fatigue, and emotional distress, among others, and can be adapted for a variety of health conditions or focuses.3-5 PROMIS can be administered as individual short forms or via computerized adaptive testing (CAT). CAT has demonstrated improved measurement precision when compared to fixed-format administration.3,6-8 The improved precision of CAT theoretically allows for obtaining the same or better-quality data while reducing the survey burden on the patient.9

The efficacy of PROMIS in orthopedics is well studied, and the system has demonstrated responsiveness and feasibility.10-12 In patients with orthopedic injuries or conditions, Physical Function is the most commonly studied domain13 and has been assessed in patient populations with musculoskeletal conditions of the foot and ankle, upper and lower extremities, and spine.13-15

An up-to-date assessment of PROMIS use in orthopedic sports medicine research and practice is warranted.16 The objective of this scoping review is to report on the use of PROMIS in the field of sports medicine.

METHODS

Review Design

We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines when designing the protocol for this scoping review17 and consulted a research librarian who reviewed and approved our search methods and strategy.

Databases and Search Strategy

We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library using keywords and database-specific subject headings to identify studies that reported the use of PROMIS domains in sports medicine patient populations from January 1, 2019, to October 18, 2022 (Appendix). Search results were limited to research articles and case series. Case reports, systematic reviews, editorials, letters to the editor, and studies not written in English were eliminated either before or during the screening process.

Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion criteria included the use of PROMIS domains for patients treated by orthopedic sports medicine physicians. Studies involving both pediatric and adult populations were included in our review. Exclusion criteria were nonorthopedic or non-sports medicine–related patient populations or interventions. Studies were included if they used at least 1 PROMIS domain, had an experimental or observational design, and were peer-reviewed.

Study Selection

All titles and abstracts from the database searches were imported into Covidence (Veritas Health Innovation Ltd), an online systematic review management software.18 The article selection process had 2 steps. First, 2 authors (NAO and CLB) independently reviewed the titles and abstracts of the imported articles using the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Articles that either 1 or both authors determined to be applicable were moved to full-text review. In the second step, the same 2 authors determined article eligibility through independent review of the full-text articles. In the event of a conflict, the 2 authors discussed and reached a verdict on whether to include or exclude the article.

Data Analysis

All studies included in the review were evaluated between October 2022 and December 2022 and were organized according to publication year, population, study design, and sample size (Table). We conducted a PROMIS-specific analysis to capture the various domains reported in the studies, as well as the administration methods. Qualitative analysis of the studies included assigning tags to track information related to the location of the intervention (eg, upper extremity, lower extremity, knee) and to themes such as the minimal clinically important difference (MCID), comparison of legacy outcome measures to PROMIS, PROMIS validation and responsiveness, and participant demographics and psychosocial characteristics.

Characteristics of the Studies Included in the Review

RESULTS

The preliminary search yielded 246 publications. Following duplicate removal, we reviewed 235 publications by titles and abstracts. After resolution of conflicts related to article inclusion or exclusion, an agreement rate >80% was calculated between the authors. Following this step, 67 publications were moved to the full-text review stage, and all 67 were determined to be eligible for inclusion in the review10,11,19-83 (Figure 1).

Study Publication Date and Design

A near-equal distribution of studies was published per year: 2019 (15 studies, 22%), 2020 (17, 25%), 2021 (18, 27%), and 2022 (17, 25%). Study designs included cohort study or prospective observational study (22, 33%), retrospective cohort study (20, 30%), cross-sectional study (13, 19%), case series (10, 15%), and randomized controlled trial (2, 3%).

Patient Population

Included publications reported PROMIS utilization in a variety of orthopedic sports medicine patient populations. PROMIS was more commonly utilized in sports medicine patient populations with conditions affecting the lower extremity (31, 46%) vs the upper extremity (24, 36%). Ten studies (15%) included patients with upper and lower extremity conditions. The studies included analyses of joint-specific populations related to the knee (19, 28%), shoulder (19, 28%), hip (8, 12%), ankle (5, 7%), and elbow (5, 7%).

PROMIS Domains and Administration Methods

Sixteen PROMIS domains were reported in publications involving adult populations: Pain Interference (45, 67%), Physical Function (37, 55%), Upper Extremity (25, 37%), Depression (25, 37%), Mobility (6, 9%), Anxiety (5, 7%), Global Physical Health (5, 7%), Global Mental Health (5, 7%), Pain Intensity (4, 6%), Social Participation (3, 4%), Fatigue (3, 4%), Sleep (2, 3%), Lower Extremity (1, 1%), Social Satisfaction (1, 1%), Physical t-Score (1, 1%), and Mental t-Score (1, 1%) (Figure 2).

Studies involving pediatric populations utilized 8 pediatric-specific domains: Upper Extremity (4, 6%), Mobility (3, 4%), Pain Interference (1, 1%), Depressive Symptoms (1, 1%), Peer Relationships (1, 1%), Social Relationships (1, 1%), Anxiety (1, 1%), and Pain Intensity (1, 1%) (Figure 3).

In the 57 studies that identified a PROMIS administration method, CAT was the most common (48/57, 84%), with short forms used less often than CAT (9/57, 16%).

PROMIS domains were used as the only outcomes measure in approximately one-third of the studies (23, 34%).

Legacy Patient-Reported Outcome Measures

Legacy PROMs were commonly reported alongside PROMIS domains (44, 66%). The specific legacy PROM used in each publication was largely dependent on the study population. For example, in publications focused on patients undergoing shoulder surgery, such as total shoulder arthroplasty, the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score was commonly reported (10, 15%).

Qualitative Themes

The authors developed and assigned tags to identify a variety of themes in the included publications: comparison of PROMs to PROMIS domains (19, 28%), impact of patient characteristics (eg, workers’ compensation) on PROMIS scores (14, 21%), MCID (12, 18%), role of psychosocial elements (eg, mental health and tobacco use) on PROMIS scores (13, 19%), administration method and time constraints (11, 16%), coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic (1, 1%), and the application of PROMs to other languages (1, 1%).

DISCUSSION

Our review of the literature from 2019 to 2022 identified publications reporting PROMIS use specifically in sports medicine populations and an increase in the volume of annual publications compared to nearly a decade ago.13 This increase is most likely multifactorial, and, as Horn et al noted, likely attributable to advances in administration methods (ie, CAT) and improved integration into electronic health record systems.16 PROMIS utilization in the field of orthopedic sports medicine follows similar patterns of use in the broader field of orthopedics, with PROMIS domains commonly used in parallel with legacy PROMs.16 Although several of the publications included in this review used PROMIS domains as the primary or only outcome measure (34%), most studies reported multiple legacy PROMs in conjunction with PROMIS domains (66%). Horn et al surmised that this phenomenon may be because of “familiarity with traditional measures, participation in registries that do not have PROMIS measures as part of the core set of measures, or a perceived lack of applicability in their patient populations.”16 Studies investigating the floor and ceiling effects of PROMIS domains and studies comparing the responsiveness of PROMIS domains to that of legacy PROMs represent natural steps to further validate PROMIS domains as capable of capturing meaningful outcome measures.37,43,59,72

The breadth of PROMIS domains used in the publications included in this review highlight the fact that PROMIS is capable of excellent generalizability. Bernstein et al investigated the correlation between adult and pediatric PROMIS domains in pediatric sports medicine patients.23 They concluded that the adult PROMIS domains could be used for both adult and pediatric patients in an orthopedic sports medicine clinic because of the high degree of correlation between the different versions of the domains.23 Additionally, researchers have investigated the validity of a Spanish version of certain PROMIS domains, mainly Physical Function.81 While further investigation is needed, these studies demonstrate that PROMIS is successfully being applied to diverse sports medicine patient populations.

Domains such as Sleep allow PROMIS to be tailored to investigate the multifactorial recovery process following orthopedic surgeries. Cheah et al analyzed the association between sleep disturbance and femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.28 Sochacki et al measured orthopedic surgeon burnout through a combination of the Maslach Burnout Inventory, PROMIS domains, and a wearable device.74 Sochacki et al used PROMIS-29 that includes the following domains: Physical Function, Anxiety, Depression, Fatigue, Sleep, Social Participation, Pain Interference, and Pain Intensity.74 PROMIS is capable of capturing outcomes beyond Physical Function to aid researchers in better understanding the complex, multifactorial conditions that affect orthopedic sports medicine surgeons and patients.

Only Lizzio et al discussed the feasibility of PROMIS CAT administration in a sports medicine clinic.10 However, our experience has highlighted the importance of having a streamlined administration and data collection system to capture patient survey responses. To incorporate PROMIS CAT domains into our sports medicine research we have used PatientIQ (PatientIQ) and REDCap (Vanderbilt University). PatientIQ is a third-party subscription-based platform that securely manages patient-reported outcomes data and can administer PROMIS CAT surveys to designated patients. REDCap is a web-based secure data collection instrument that also has the capability of administering PROMIS CAT surveys. The REDCap tool is managed in house by research team members. Both platforms can be used to administer other legacy outcome measures either individually or alongside the PROMIS domains. Future investigation into the most widely used platforms for PROMIS CAT administration may provide valuable insight for orthopedic sports medicine practices interested in collecting PROMIS data for research and clinical outcomes data.

Limitations

Limitations of our scoping review are that we did not conduct an analysis of the quality of the included studies and did not perform a risk assessment of bias.

CONCLUSION

Our results demonstrate a consistent utilization of PROMIS domains in sports medicine clinical research and practice. Pain Interference and Physical Function were the 2 most reported PROMIS domains in the included publications. While nearly one-third of the articles we reviewed used PROMIS as the only or primary outcome measure, researchers more commonly used PROMIS in addition to other legacy measures, often comparing the scores to assess responsiveness and validity. The development of third-party platforms such as PatientIQ that streamline administration and data capture procedures offers the potential for increased utility of PROMIS and its ability to provide data on a variety of factors contributing to patient outcomes.
