Abstract:
Purpose:This study aimed to explore the current status of systematic review studies on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) published in Korean journals.
Methods:Studies on the systematic review of PROMs, which applied the COnsensus-based Standards for selecting health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) methodology. There were searched from the KoreaMed. The studies were evaluated based on the eight steps suggested by the COSMIN systematic review processes.
Results:A total of eight systematic review studies were published in seven Korean journals. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) measure for post-traumatic growth, social adjustment, physical impairment in post-intensive care syndrome, sleep quality, constipation, discharge readiness, post-traumatic stress disorder, and eHealth literacy.
Conclusions:No studies adhered to the steps of the COSMIN systematic review guidelines. Among the steps, the weakest points were searching strategies and evaluating measurement properties.
