ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the measurement properties of 12 patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used to measure depression symptom severity in adolescents with depression. Depression symptom severity was chosen as the outcome of focus given its importance as an outcome to measure in adolescents with depression across clinical trials and/or care.
METHOD: MEDLINE, PsycInfo, Scopus, CINAHL, and Web of Science were searched from year of inception up to December 7th, 2023. Study appraisal (i.e., risk of bias), evaluation of measurement properties, and evidence synthesis followed the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) guidelines. Included studies evaluated at least one of nine measurement properties as detailed in the COSMIN taxonomy within a reported sample or subgroup of youth 12-24 years, with at least 40% meeting criteria for any depressive disorder.
RESULTS: Of the 15,560 records identified, 31 studies for seven PROMs were included in the COSMIN appraisal. Although several PROMs have the potential to accurately measure depression symptom severity in adolescents with depression, at this time none of the PROMs can be recommended for use without further evaluative work. High-quality evidence was generally lacking, largely due to few or inconsistent findings, small sample sizes, and other methodological concerns.
CONCLUSION: This systematic review of the measurement properties of 12 PROMs used to measure depression symptom severity in adolescents with depression found that none of the PROMs can be recommended for use until further evaluative work is conducted. Clinicians and researchers should proceed with caution when using these PROMs.
