Barriers to care for musculoskeletal sarcoma patients
Introduction: This study seeks to investigate the barriers to care that exist for patients presenting with sarcomas of musculoskeletal origin. Understanding the roots of delays in care for patients with musculoskeletal sarcoma is particularly important given the necessity of prompt treatment for oncologic diagnoses. Investigators reviewed relevant studies of publications reporting barriers to care in patients undergoing diagnosis and treatment of…
Clarifying thresholds for defining levels of physical function and pain interference using bookmarking in orthopaedics
Testing new vignette scores within the same patient population enables more nuanced testing of score ranges without clear consensus and provides additional evidence for recommending thresholds for severity categories. These thresholds can be utilized to help interpret PROMIS scores from patients receiving orthopaedic care
Differential item functioning between English, German, and Spanish PROMIS® physical function ceiling items
Our findings support the universal applicability of PROMIS Physical Function items across general populations in Argentina, Germany, and the U.S. The sensitivity analyses indicate that the identification of DIF items was robust for different data analytic decisions. Multiverse analysis is a promising approach to address lack of clear cutoffs in DIF identification
Using bookmarking methods with orthopedic clinicians and patients with fractures produces score interpretation labels for patient-reported outcome measures
Objective The objective of this study was to determine the patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) score ranges associated with descriptive labels (i.e., within normal limits, mild, moderate, severe) by using bookmarking methods with orthopedic clinicians and patients who have experienced a bone fracture. Study design and setting We created vignettes comprised of six items and responses from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information S…
Association of Covid-19 With Achieving Time-to-Surgery Benchmarks in Patients With Musculoskeletal Trauma
In this cohort study, there was no association between meeting time-to-surgery benchmarks in either open fracture or closed femur/hip fracture during the COVID-19 pandemic compared with before the pandemic. This is counter to concerns that the unprecedented challenges associated with managing the COVID-19 pandemic would be associated with clinically significant delays in acute management of urgent surgical cases and suggests that many hospital sy…
