uroscores - Scoring Tools for Urology and Pelvic Health Research Instruments

Scores standardized patient-reported instruments used in urology and pelvic health research, including the International Prostate Symptom Score (Barry et al., 1992), the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (Homma et al., 2006) <doi:10.1016/j.urology.2006.02.042>, the O'Leary-Sant interstitial cystitis indices, the short forms of the Urogenital Distress Inventory and the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (Uebersax et al., 1995) <doi:10.1002/nau.1930140206>, the Sandvik incontinence severity index, and the Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index. Instruments are declarative definitions read by a single scoring engine. Responses are checked against the permitted value set of each item, missing items follow the published rule for the instrument or return NA when none was published, severity bands are assigned by membership, and published minimal important difference statistics are included for responder analyses.
