Abstract:

The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) v1.2 Upper Extremity (UE) item bank was recently developed to improve the precision and responsiveness of measuring upper extremity physical function but has not yet been fully evaluated in an orthopaedic population. The purpose of this study was to fill such gap. We administered the PROMIS UE instrument to patients who presented to an academic orthopaedic center and examined the items and instrument's measurement properties. Results indicated that the instrument had adequate reliabilities and item fit. However, the items were mostly targeting lower functioning patients, thus revealing large ceiling effect. More items need to be developed to target the higher functioning end.
