Abstract
The National Institutes of Health Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) assessments are gaining traction in orthopaedics as dynamic and efficient methods for measuring patient-reported outcomes. Numerous recent studies have shown favorable psychometric properties of PROMIS forms compared with traditional, "legacy" patient-reported outcome measures. Despite these early findings, however, additional validation research is needed to justify widespread adoption of PROMIS as a clinical and research tool.
