Discriminant Ability, Concurrent Validity, and Responsiveness of PROMIS Health Domains Among Patients With Lumbar Degenerative Disease Undergoing Decompression With or Without Arthrodesis
Abstract
Study design A prospective cohort study. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) health domains to discriminate between levels of disease severity and to determine the concurrent validity and responsiveness of PROMIS relative to "legacy" measures. Summary of background data PROMIS may measure recovery after lumbar spine surgery. Concurrent validity and responsiveness have not been compared with legacy measures in this population. Methods We included 231 adults undergoing surgery for lumbar degenerative disease. Discriminant ability of PROMIS was estimated for adjacent categories of disease severity using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Concurrent validity was determined through correlation between preoperative legacy measures and PROMIS. Responsiveness was estimated using distribution-based and anchor-based criteria (change from preoperatively to within 3 months postoperatively) anchored to treatment expectations (North American Spine Society Patient Satisfaction Index) to determine minimal important differences (MIDs). Significance was accepted at P Results PROMIS discriminated between disease severity levels, with mean differences between adjacent categories of 3 to 8 points. There were strong to very strong correlations between Patient Health Questionnaire-8, Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7, and PROMIS anxiety, depression, fatigue, and sleep disturbance; between ODI and PROMIS f…

The PROMIS anxiety measure has demonstrated validity and reliability in patients with knee osteoarthritis, multiple sclerosis, and lumbar degenerative disease.
“Validity and reliability of this measure have been demonstrated in patients with knee osteoarthritis (Driban, Morgan, Price, Cook, & Wang, 2015), multiple sclerosis (Marrie et al., 2018), and lumbar degenerative disease (Purvis, Neuman, Riley, & Skolasky, 2018).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
