Construction of a conceptual model and preliminary content development for patient-reported outcomes measurement after total hip arthroplasty: from a Chinese perspective
To develop a conceptual model and preliminary content for patients who have undergone total hip arthroplasty (THA) in Mainland China.
Key Findings:
A total of 50 patients and 17 experts participated in the study.
The conceptual model focused on eight key dimensions: function, pain, symptoms, quality of life, cognitive and social support, psychology, expectations, and satisfaction.
A total of 99 items were developed for the corresponding CTP.
Interpretation:
The conceptual model and preliminary content of the CTP were developed with extensive participation from patients and multidisciplinary experts, integrating patient perspectives and clinical practice.
Limitations:
The study may have limitations related to the sample size and diversity of participants.
The Delphi method's expert attrition could impact the study results.
Conclusion:
The CTP is expected to become a standardized and comprehensive measurement tool for research on Chinese patients who have undergone THA, following further refinement through psychometric testing.
Supervised rehabilitation and exercise-based therapies may improve function, pain, and bone health in ankylosing spondylitis, according to a new review.
