What is ASCQ-Me? Adult Sickle Cell Quality of Life Measurement Information System • Patient-reported

What is ASCQ-Me? Adult Sickle Cell Quality of Life Measurement Information System • Patient-reported outcome measurement system that evaluates and monitors the physical, mental, and social well-being of adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) • Developed and validated with state-of-the-science methods to be psychometrically sound • Designed to be comprehensive when used with PROMIS® • Created to be complementary with physiological measures of disease severity • Supports treatment planning as well as clinical and health services research • Now supported by Health. Measures, the official information & distribution center for 4 NIH-supported measurement systems (PROMIS, Neuro-Qo. L, ASCQ-Me. SM and NIH Toolbox®) Health. Measures. net/ascq-me

ITEM BANK Components of ASCQ-Me DOMAIN The feeling, function, or perception you wish to measure e. g. , pain impact, emotional impact Health. Measures. net/ascq-me ITEM BANK Collection of items that each measure the same domain Use to create different measure types, all producing a score on the same metric

ASCQ-Me Measure Types Short Forms • Fixed set of 5 items or questions for

ASCQ-Me Measure Types Short Forms • Fixed set of 5 items or questions for one domain Computer Adaptive Tests (CATs) • Items dynamically selected from an item bank, based upon respondent’s previous answers • Usually 4 -12 items with a high level of measurement precision Health. Measures. net/ascq-me Sickle Cell Disease Medical History Checklist • Fixed set of items used descriptively

Short Forms and CATs Based on Item Response Theory (IRT) Assumes an individual’s responses

Short Forms and CATs Based on Item Response Theory (IRT) Assumes an individual’s responses to items are related to an unobservable domain or trait (e. g. pain). IRT can use item responses to estimate a person’s score on that domain, or expected responses to different items can be estimated from a person’s score. “How often did you have pain so bad that you had to stop what you were doing? ” Never Always No Impact Severe Pain Episodes

Understanding ASCQ-Me Scores • ASCQ-Me measures use a T-score metric • 50 is the mean of a relevant reference population • 10 is the standard deviation (SD) of that population • ASCQ-Me measures (except for Checklist) centered on diverse sample of people with sickle cell disease recruited from 7 clinics throughout the US. • Meaning of the score is defined by how it compares to the scores of others in a reference population Health.

ASCQ-Me at Work as a Quality of Care Measure The National Heart, Lung, and

ASCQ-Me at Work as a Quality of Care Measure The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) has awarded nearly $36 million in grants to the Sickle Cell Disease Implementation Consortium to improve quality of care for U. S. teens and adults with sickle cell disease. • First grants of their kind, using implementation research to test strategies which could boost health outcomes • Minimum of 2, 400 patients with sickle cell disease at 8 clinical sites across the U. S. • ASCQ-Me quality of care measure will be used in the needs assessment phase of the project. ASCQ-Me and PROMIS measures will also be used in the registry. Health. Measures. net/ascq-me
