Assessing Rehabilitation Outcomes after Severe Neuromusculoskeletal Injury: Development of Patient Reported Outcomes Assessment Instruments

Abstract

Currently, there is a paucity of patient reported outcomes (PRO) measures of secondary health effects and complications that result from neuromusculoskeletal injuries, which greatly limits the clinical care and successful rehabilitation, reintegration, and return to duty/work of injured individuals. This study will create valid, standardized, psychometrically robust, and clinically useful PRO measures for traits and symptoms relevant to understanding quality of life and the health and rehabilitation outcomes of Wounded Warriors and civilians with neuromusculoskeletal trauma. Furthermore, this study will develop clinical score reports in an actionable format to improve the clinical workflow and standard of care for individuals with traumatic limb injuries.
