Measurement properties of Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System domains for children with type 1 diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) includes numerous domains to assess functioning among the pediatric population. These domains, however, have not been evaluated for use in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The objective of this study was to determine the measurement properties of PROMIS domains (pain behavior, pain quality, physical stress experience, physical activity, strength impact, and profile-25) in children with T1D.

Methods

This is a cross-sectional study of children with T1Drecruited from tertiary care facilities. To determine construct validity, we compared PROMIS T-scores between known-groups based on (a) glycemic control, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c%) and (b) self-reported general health, using t test or analysis of varianc
