Short Description of Instrument
The PROMIS Scale v1.2 - Global Health (also referred to as PROMIS-10) is a ten-item patient reported measure of physical, mental and social health. Items query general health, quality of life, physical health, mental health, satisfaction with discretionary social activities, carrying out every day physical activities, pain, fatigue, satisfaction with social roles, and emotional problems (Hays et al., 2009).
 
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.
 
NeuroRehab-Specific: PROMIS Global is a measure of how a person evaluates their overall mental and physical health
 
Stroke-Specific:
Version 1.1 of this scale is recommended by the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement Working Group as part of the Stroke Standard Set of outcome measures (Salinas et al., 2016). The psychometric properties in ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage patients, and comparison to other PROMIS domain scales were studied by Katzan and Lapin (2018). Version 1.2 of the scale includes changes to allow item response theory scoring in computer scoring applications but does not include changes to the syntax of items; see Scoring Manual for additional details. Lapin et al., 2018 found that updates to the scoring methodology did not change the conclusions of their previous validation study (Katzan and Lapin 2018).
 
Parkinson's Disease-Specific: The PROMIS system is widely used and has extensive general validation data. The scale has been used in PD, but not specifically validated in PD.
 
Administration:  Fixed length scale
 
Time: 2-5 minutes
 
Ages: Adult (ages 18+)

Scoring and Psychometric Properties
Scoring: The PROMIS Scale v1.2 - Global Health has two scores: Physical Health (physical health, physical function, pain, and fatigue items) and Mental Health (quality of life, mental health, satisfaction with discretionary social activities, and emotional problem items) (Hays et al., 2009).
 
T scores for both Physical and Mental Health scales.
 
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 and reliability of PROMIS measures. More information about validation is available at: PROMIS Validation.
Rationale/Justification
Parkinson's Disease-Specific:
Strengths: The PROMIS Scale v1.2 Global Health has been validated across a broad range of chronic disease. Two summary scores can be calculated that are relevant in PD.
 
Weaknesses: It has less domain-specific information than the PROMIS 29 Profile. There is little validation in specific conditions (e.g., PD).
