Identifying Core Outcome Domains in Chronic Skin Disease Using the Best-Worst Scaling Method.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

The use of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) potentially holds promise as an opportunity to improve outcomes and quality of care for patients with skin disease, but the routine use of PROMs remains limited. While the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) has several strengths and domains relevant to those with chronic skin disease, it is not clear which are most useful.

Objective

To determine which PROMIS domains are most meaningful to those with chronic skin disease to develop a PROMIS profile that effectively captures the experience of living with these skin diseases.

Design, setting, and participants

This cross-sectional study was based on data gathered from an internet survey that was administered to a sample of adult
