Preliminary Validation of the Review of Musculoskeletal System (ROMS) Questionnaire
Conclusions:
The ROMS is compatible with routine clinical process and has good psychometric properties in patients with shoulder, hip, and knee disorders. It can be used as a primary outcome tool for large observational studies and can supplement more specific tools in controlled studies.
Clinical Relevance:
The ROMS was developed as a tool to measure and monitor the clinical status of the musculoskeletal system in a population of patients during and after treatment as well as over time.
