Availability
Please visit this website for more information about the instrument: PROMIS-29 Profile
 
The PROMIS-29 Profile is domain-focused (domains listed below) rather than specific to a particular disease; however, a disease-customized measurement approach can be utilized by choosing the PROMIS measures most relevant to the specific disease. See: PROMIS Domain Framework for pediatric and adult domains.

Classification
NeuroRehab Supplemental - Highly Recommended
Recommendations for Use: Indicated for studies requiring a Generic Health-Related Quality of Life measure. Appropriate for people with all conditions.
 
Supplemental - Highly Recommended: Stroke
 
Supplemental: Parkinson's Disease (PD)
Recommendation for use: Indicated for studies requiring a Global Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) measure. Provides extensive comparison data to other disease areas
Short Description of Instrument
PROMIS-29 includes seven HRQOL domains (physical functioning, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, social functioning, and pain), and the pain domain has two subdomains (interference and intensity). Each of the seven domains has four 5-level items (i.e., 16 decrements each). In addition to these items, pain intensity is assessed using a single 11-point numeric rating scale anchored between no pain (0) and worse imaginable pain (10), adding 10 additional decrements.
 
The Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) contains calibrated item banks with Likert style items for approximately 70 domains (e.g., anger, anxiety, depression, fatigue (Cella et al., 2010; Garcia et al., 2007), pain (Amtmann et al., 2010), physical function, satisfaction with social activities and roles, sleep/wake disturbance (Bruni et al., 1996, 1994; Spruyt & Gozal 2011), and global health (Cella et al., 2010; Hays et al., 2009)). It is part of the NIH goal to develop systems to support NIH-funded research supported by all of its institutes and centers. PROMIS measures cover physical, mental, and social health and can be used across chronic conditions.
 
The instrument is domain-focused (domains listed above) rather than specific to a particular disease; however, a disease-customized measurement approach can be utilized by choosing the PROMIS measures most relevant to the specific disease. See: PROMIS Domain Framework for pediatric and adult domains.

Scoring and Psychometric Properties
Scoring: Individual T scores for all scales. For the PROMIS - 29 Adult Profile 2.1 instrument, an Anxiety raw score of 10 converts to a T-score of 59.5 with a standard error (SE) of 2.6 (see scoring table for the 4a short form v2.1 in Appendix 1 of the PROMIS Scoring Manual). Thus, the 95% confidence interval around the observed score ranges from 54.4 to 64.6 (T-score + (1.96*SE) or 59.5 + (1.96* 2.6). There is no total summary score.
 
In all cases, a high score means more of domain. For example, higher scores on the fatigue measures indicate poorer health whereas higher scores on physical functioning measure indicate better health.
 
Standardization Population: For most domains, T-scores relate to the US General Population. See PROMIS Calibrations Testing  for further details regarding sample for specific ages and domains.
 
Scoring Manual is available at: PROMIS Global Scoring Manual.
 
Psychometric Properties: Substantial qualitative and quantitative evidence has been gathered that supports the validity of PROMIS measures. More information about validation is available at:PROMIS Validation
Rationale/Justification
Parkinson's Disease-Specific:  
Strengths: This scale from the PROMIS system focuses on domains that are very relevant to PD. The PROMIS-29 Profile has been validated across a broad range of chronic disease. It is a relatively brief scale.
 
Weaknesses: Like all generic scales it does not cover all features of PD and, whilst used very widely across disease areas including PD, there are limited specific validation data in PD. There is no summary score.
