Medical Outcomes Study Instrument Sample Clauses

Medical Outcomes Study Instrument. The Medical Outcomes Study was designed for two specific purposes: 1) to determine whether variations in patient outcomes are explained by differences in system of care, clinician specialty, and clinicians' technical and interpersonal styles; and 2) to develop more practical tools for the routine monitoring of patient outcomes in medical practice (Xxxxxx et al., 1989). The original instrument was a 116-item questionnaire developed to measure longitudinally the health of persons suffering from chronic diseases. The instrument measures eight aspects of general health, physical health, and psychological health: 1) health and daily activities; 2) physical health; 3) pain; 4) daily activities; 5) feelings; 6) social activities; 7) health; 8) sleep. This questionnaire is long and many of the sections overlap; consequently, many shorter questionnaires were developed out of this study, such as the Short-Form 12 (SF-12), SF-20, and the SF-36 (the numbers denoting the number of questions on the questionnaire). Some of these abbreviated instruments have been translated into other languages and tested in other settings; however, none have been translated into African languages or tested in African countries (IQOLA Project, 1990).
