The American Orthopaedic
Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) released a position statement on
patient-reported outcomes to assess patient general health, functional status,
and outcomes of treatment. The authors note “It is not possible to recommend a
single instrument to collect quality orthopedic data as the selection is
dependent on the population being examined and the question being asked. We
support the use of the PROMIS Physical Function Computerized Adaptive Test (PF
CAT) or Lower Extremity Computerized Adaptive Test (LE CAT), which can be
assessed with other domains such as Pain Interference. In addition, a
disease-specific measure can be used when available.”
