Only the DASH and PRWE have evidence of reliability , validity , and responsiveness in patients with traumatic injuries to the h and and wrist ; other measures either have incomplete evidence or evidence gathered in a nontraumatic population .
Conclusions : The DASH and PRWE both have evidence of reliability , validity , and responsiveness in a h and and wrist trauma population .
Other PROMs used to assess h and and wrist trauma patients do not .
Background : Patient-reported outcome measures ( PROMs ) are important tools for assessing outcomes following injuries to the h and and wrist .
Many commonly used PROMs have no evidence of reliability , validity , and responsiveness in a h and and wrist trauma population .
This systematic review examines the PROMs used in the assessment of h and and wrist trauma patients , and the evidence for reliability , validity , and responsiveness of each measure in this population .
Use of Condition-Specific Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Clinical Trials among Patients with Wrist Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review
Background . This paper aim ed to identify condition-specific patient-reported outcome measures used in clinical trials among people with wrist osteoarthritis and summarise empirical peer- review ed evidence supporting their reliability , validity , and responsiveness to change . Methods . A systematic review of r and omised controlled trials among people with wrist osteoarthritis was undertaken . Studies reporting reliability , validity , or responsiveness were identified using a systematic reverse citation trail audit procedure . Psychometric properties of the instruments were examined against predefined criteria and summarised . Results . Thirteen clinical trials met inclusion criteria . The most common patient-reported outcome was the disabilities of the arm , shoulder , and h and question naire ( DASH ) . The DASH , the  Michigan H and Outcomes Question naire ( MHQ ) , the  Patient Evaluation Measure ( PEM ) , and the  Patient-Reported Wrist Evaluation ( PRWE ) had evidence supporting their reliability , validity , and responsiveness . A post-hoc review of excluded studies revealed the AUSCAN Osteoarthritis H and Index as another suitable instrument that had favourable reliability , validity , and responsiveness . Conclusions . The DASH , MHQ , and AUSCAN Osteoarthritis H and Index instruments were supported by the most favourable empirical evidence for validity , reliability , and responsiveness . The PEM and PRWE also had favourable empirical evidence reported for these elements . Further psychometric testing of these instruments among people with wrist osteoarthritis is warranted
