Outcome Measures in Orthopaedics and Orthopaedic Trauma 2ed: A Comprehensive Guide to Evaluating Surgical and Non-Surgical Treatment
Outcome measures are essential tools for assessing the effectiveness of orthopaedic and orthopaedic trauma treatments. They provide a standardized way to measure patient outcomes, allowing clinicians to compare different treatments and track patient progress over time. Outcome measures can also be used to identify areas for improvement in patient care.
The second edition of Outcome Measures in Orthopaedics and Orthopaedic Trauma has been fully updated to reflect the latest advances in outcome measurement. This comprehensive guide provides a detailed overview of the most commonly used outcome measures in orthopaedics and orthopaedic trauma, including:

* Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) * Clinician-reported outcome measures (CROMs) * Objective outcome measures * Economic outcome measures
The book also includes chapters on the use of outcome measures in clinical research, quality improvement, and patient education.
Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs)
PROMs are self-administered questionnaires that measure patients' perceptions of their health and function. They are an important part of outcome assessment because they provide a direct measure of the patient's experience. PROMs can be used to assess a variety of outcomes, including pain, function, quality of life, and satisfaction.
There are a number of different PROMs that can be used in orthopaedics and orthopaedic trauma. The most commonly used PROMs include:
* The Short Form-36 (SF-36) * The Oxford Hip Score (OHS) * The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) * The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)
Clinician-Reported Outcome Measures (CROMs)
CROMs are outcome measures that are completed by clinicians. They typically assess objective findings, such as range of motion, strength, and gait. CROMs can be used to track patient progress over time and to compare different treatments.
There are a number of different CROMs that can be used in orthopaedics and orthopaedic trauma. The most commonly used CROMs include:
* The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Scale * The Lysholm Knee Score * The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)
Objective Outcome Measures
Objective outcome measures are measurements that are not influenced by the patient's subjective perceptions. They typically include physical measurements, such as range of motion, strength, and gait. Objective outcome measures can be used to track patient progress over time and to compare different treatments.
There are a number of different objective outcome measures that can be used in orthopaedics and orthopaedic trauma. The most commonly used objective outcome measures include:
* Range of motion * Strength * Gait analysis * Radiographic measurements
Economic Outcome Measures
Economic outcome measures assess the costs associated with orthopaedic and orthopaedic trauma treatment. They can be used to compare the cost-effectiveness of different treatments and to identify areas for cost savings.
There are a number of different economic outcome measures that can be used in orthopaedics and orthopaedic trauma. The most commonly used economic outcome measures include:
* Cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) * Cost per complication * Cost per day of hospitalization
Outcome measures are essential tools for assessing the effectiveness of orthopaedic and orthopaedic trauma treatments. They provide a standardized way to measure patient outcomes, allowing clinicians to compare different treatments and track patient progress over time. Outcome measures can also be used to identify areas for improvement in patient care.
The second edition of Outcome Measures in Orthopaedics and Orthopaedic Trauma provides a comprehensive overview of the most commonly used outcome measures in orthopaedics and orthopaedic trauma. This book is an essential resource for clinicians, researchers, and policymakers who are involved in the care of patients with orthopaedic and orthopaedic trauma conditions.
