Reported outcomes in studies of intermittent claudication - first step toward a core outcome set: systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This review aimed to compile an exhaustive list of all outcome measures and identify different characteristics of the outcomes reported in studies of intermittent claudication as the first step in developing a core outcome set for intermittent claudication.

Method

Medline and Embase were searched for all studies including individuals with intermittent claudication and reporting ≥1 outcome from January 2015 to August 2024. Abstract, full text screening and data extraction were performed by two investigators independently. All reported outcome measures were extracted verbatim and categorized by Dodd's domains (Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials registration: COMIC Study, 1590; https://www.comet-initiative.org/Studies/Details/1590).
