Background: To capture the broad range of treatment burden issues experienced by adolescent and adult people with hemophilia (PWH), the Hemophilia Treatment Experience Measure (Hemo-TEM) was developed. We describe the development of this new hemophilia-specific patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure including concept elicitation, cognitive debriefing, and psychometric validation.

Results: Concept elicitation interviews were conducted with 5 clinical experts and 30 adult PWH in the United States (US).

Purpose: Responsiveness is defined as the ability of an instrument to accurately detect change when it has occurred and is an essential psychometric property of a patient-reported outcomes (PRO) measure to understand and interpret study findings. This study examined the responsiveness of 2 Treatment Related Impact Measures (TRIMs): The TRIM-Diabetes (TRIM-D) and TRIM-Diabetes Device (TRIM-DD) as well as confirmed their measurement models in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design.

Methods: The data were collected in a multi-center, randomized, open-label (2 × 12 week), cross-over study of two prefilled pens in subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, age 18 or older.
