The Future of Functional Outcome Measurements in Spine Patients
Featuring: Ram Haddas, MD, Yigal Samocha, MD, Bassel Diebo, MD
Functional outcome measurements have been shown to be effective tools in diagnosing, planning treatments, and tracking outcomes in several subspecialties of medicine. The data produced from FOMs allows surgeons to tailor patient-specific surgical interventions, improve assessment of surgical outcomes, and expand the understanding of gait abnormalities and their impact on patient's daily lives. A comprehensive picture of functional outcome measurements, patient-reported outcome measures, and radiographic parameters is important for spine surgeons to understand and guide postoperative prognosis.
