ATI Evidence-based Guide Investigating Clinical Services: Rehabilitation and Physical Therapy Patient Outcomes Registry

The investigators goal is to provide a mechanism that allows for a better understanding of
patient outcomes following rehabilitation. This includes functional outcomes measured by
standardized and validated tools from the published literature. It incorporates comorbidities
and patient demographic characteristics. It includes measures of general health as well along
with activities of daily living and behavioral health aspects. Measures of quality and
satisfaction and use of Net Promoter Scores also are included. All of these components come
together to form a remarkably comprehensive picture of patients and their associated
outcomes. This is a unique milestone in rehabilitative care and will act to inform and direct
evidence-based approaches and treatment guidelines.

Data are collected via the investigators proprietary electronic medical record system and are
synthetic to the clinical process—that is, the data are collected in real-time with patients
and the scores are immediately provided to the treating therapist as well as archived for
later Registry and scientific use. Subsequent reporting can be risk adjusted to any variable
collected which yields robust insights as to idiopathic patient conditions. However, no PHI
information will be available.

This is a retrospective, longitudinal, observational registry study to provide a unique and
effective mechanism to acquire real‐world data on patients receiving physical therapy in a
variety of settings, regardless of disorder being treated.

In addition to the standard visit/data collection, patients in the AEGIS™ Registry will also
be asked to complete a Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF‐12) and a standardized functional
outcome instrument. Generally, the following will be available:

- Knee Outcome Survey

- Foot & Ankle Ability Measure

- Lower Extremity Functional Scale

- Neck Disability Index Questionnaire

- Pain rating

- Global Rating of Change Scale

- Baseline Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF‐12)

Patient Start of Care:

- Patient information (age, BMI, sex, de-identified Protected Health Information in
accordance to 45 CFR 164.514)

- Medical/surgical history

- Therapy review (diagnosis, therapy)

- Treatment plan

Ongoing Patient Assessment:

- De-identified Protected Health Information in accordance to 45 CFR 164.514

- Treatment plan update(s)

- Concurrent (every 10th visit) administration of functional outcome measure(s)
