Zusammenfassung: | Introduction/Purpose:
This study sought to establish normative values for baseline physical and mental health by foot and ankle diagnosis using validated Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) scores and to compare the correlation between these two outcomes across common foot and ankle diagnoses. Additionally, it investigated the effect of specific foot and ankle diagnoses on self-reported mental health at first presentation.
Methods:
We retrospectively reviewed baseline PROMIS Physical Function Short Form 10a (PF10a) and PROMIS Global-Mental (PGM) scores of 14,374 patients who had one of the 10 most common foot and ankle diagnoses seen at our institution between 2016 and 2021. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the relationship between PF10a and PGM by diagnosis. A multivariable regression model was also used to determine the effect of each diagnosis on PGM score.
Results:
On unadjusted analysis, patients diagnosed with an ankle fracture had the lowest mean physical function, while patients with hallux valgus had the highest (PF10a=33.9 vs 46.7). Patients with foot/ankle osteoarthritis had the worst mean self-reported mental health, while patients with hallux rigidus had the best (PGM=49.9 vs 53.4). PF10a and PGM scores were significantly positively correlated for all diagnoses; the correlation was strongest in patients diagnosed with foot/ankle osteoarthritis or hammertoes (r=0.511) and weakest in patients with ankle fractures (r=0.239) or ankle sprains (r=0.287). Chronic conditions, including hammertoes (β=-4.9, 95%CI [-5.6, -4.2], p< 0.001), foot/ankle osteoarthritis (β=-4.8, 95%CI [-5.5, -4.1], p< 0.001), and hallux valgus (β=-4.6, 95%CI [-5.3, -3.9], p< 0.001) were associated with the largest negative effects on patients’ self-reported mental health.
Conclusion:
Self-reported physical function and mental health varied across common foot and ankle diagnoses and were more tightly correlated in chronic than acute conditions. The effect of diagnosis on mental health scores appears to be worse for more chronic diagnoses, including those that are generally associated with relatively unimpaired physical function.
