ABSTRACT:

Objective

Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are increasingly recognized in liver transplant (LT)-patients, yet recent evaluations of their quality are lacking. This systematic review gives a comprehensive overview of available PROMs in adults awaiting or undergoing LT and their measurement properties.

Method

A systematic search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, and COCHRANE (01/2010-08/2023) included studies involving adult LT-candidates and/or recipients utilizing PROMs with original evaluations of measurement properties. The COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) was used to ascertain the quality of measurement properties.

Results

In total, 23 studies encompassing 35 PROMs were identified, including nine disease-spec
