Author(s): Jasvinder A Singh and Michael DohmJasvinder A Singh and Michael Dohm
Background: There is no consensus on how to report total joint replacement (TJR) trials. To our knowledge, core outcome domains for TJR clinical trials have not been defined. Our objective was to develop data-driven, consensus-based, preliminary recommendations for core outcome domains for TJR clinical trials.
Method: We surveyed two groups of experts/stakeholders, who rated potential core outcome domains (mapped to Outcome Measures in Rheumatology Trials (OMERACT) filter 2.0 framework) for their relevance to TJR clinical trials during the 2014 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons [AAOS] and Outcome Research Interest Group of the Orthopaedic Research Society (ORS) annual meeting and the 2014 OMERACT meeting. Ratings were on a 1-9 scale, 1-3 indicating domain of limited importance, 4-6 being important domain, and 7-9 being critically impo.. View More»
