BackgroundPeripheral arterial disease (PAD) is generally associated with considerable morbidity and reduced quality of life. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) provide important information about the burden of disease and impact of treatment in affected patients.ObjectivesThe objective of the review was to identify and appraise studies reporting the psychometric evaluation of PROMs administered to a specified population of patients with PAD with a view to recommending suitable PROMs.MethodsA systematic review of peer-reviewed English language articles was undertaken to identify primary studies reporting psychometric properties of PROMs in English-speaking patients with various stages of PAD. Comprehensive searches were completed up until January 2015. Study selection, data extraction and quality assessment were undertaken independently by at least two researchers. Findings were presented as tabular and narrative summaries based on accepted guidance.ResultsPsychometric evaluation of 6 generic and 7 condition-specific PROMs reported in 14 studies contributed data to the review. The frequently reported measure was the SF-36 (n = 11 studies); others included the Walking Impairment Questionnaire (n = 8 studies), EQ-5D (n = 5 studies) and the Vascular Quality of Life Questionnaire (n = 3 studies). Studies included a diverse PAD population and varied in methodology, including approach to validation of PROMs.ConclusionsVarious PROMs have been validated in patients with PAD but no study provided evidence of a full psychometric evaluation in the patient population. Careful selection is required to identify reliable and valid PROMs to use in clinical and research settings.

OBJECTIVES To test the hypothesis that the percentage of patients screened that randomize differs between prevention and therapy trials. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING Rapid review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) identified through published systematic reviews in August 2013. Individually randomized, parallel group controlled RCTs were eligible if they evaluated metformin monotherapy or exercise for the prevention or treatment of type 2 diabetes. Numbers of patients screened and randomized were extracted by a single reviewer. Percentages were calculated for each study for those randomized: as a function of those approached, screened, and eligible. Percentages (95% confidence intervals) from each individual study were weighted according to the denominator and pooled rates calculated. Statistical heterogeneity was assessed using I(2). RESULTS The percentage of those screened who subsequently randomized was 6.2% (6.0%, 6.4%; 3 studies, I(2) = 100.0%) for metformin prevention trials; 50.7% (49.9%, 51.4%; 21 studies, I(2) = 99.6%) for metformin treatment trials; 4.8% (4.7%, 4.8%; 14 studies, I(2) = 99.9%) for exercise prevention trials; and 43.3% (42.6%, 43.9%; 28 studies, I(2) = 99.8%) for exercise treatment trials. CONCLUSION This study provides qualified support for the hypothesis that prevention trials recruit a smaller proportion of those screened than treatment trials. Statistical heterogeneity associated with pooled estimates and other study limitations is discussed.

The aim was to identify and evaluate existing patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) for use in patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) to inform the selection for use in surgical practice.

AIM To systematically identify, evaluate and synthesize qualitative research that examined the symptoms and health-related quality of life themes that are important from the perspective of patients with venous leg ulceration. BACKGROUND Venous leg ulceration is a common chronic condition; the symptoms and associated treatments have a negative effect on health-related quality of life. Qualitative research methods can provide insight into the personal experiences of patients with venous leg ulceration. DESIGN Qualitative evidence synthesis (using framework synthesis). DATA SOURCES Multiple electronic databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO and CINAHL were comprehensively searched from inception to November 2015. REVIEW METHODS Systematic identification, quality assessment and synthesis of existing qualitative research were performed; framework synthesis was conducted on included studies. An inductive approach was used and emergent themes were identified. The final stage in the synthesis involved the development of new interpretations. RESULTS Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria; the overall quality of the included studies was good. Four overarching themes were identified; physical impact, psychological impact, social impact and treatment and, in these, further subthemes were identified. Ulcer and treatment-related pain, as well as odour and exudate appeared to have significant and direct negative effects on quality of life, with additional and cumulative effects on sleep, mobility and mood. CONCLUSION The themes identified in this review should be considered by professionals providing services, care and treatment for venous leg ulcer patients and in the selection, or development, of patient-reported outcome measures for use with this population.
