Objectives  Research has indicated proxies overestimate symptoms on patients’ behalves, however it is unclear whether patients and proxies agree on meaningful change across domains over time. The objective of this study is to assess patient-proxy agreement over time, as well as agreement on identification of meaningful change, across 10 health domains in patients who underwent acute rehabilitation following stroke.    Methods  Stroke patients were recruited from an ambulatory clinic or inpatient rehabilitation unit, and were included in the study if they were undergoing rehabilitation. At baseline and again after 30 days, patients and their proxies completed PROMIS Global Health and eight domain-specific PROMIS short forms. Reliability of patient-proxy assessments at baseline, follow-up, and the change in T-score was evaluated for each domain using intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC(2,1)). Agreement on meaningful improvement or worsening, defined as 5+ T-score points, was compared using percent exact agreement.    Results  Forty-one patient-proxy dyads were included in the study. Proxies generally reported worse symptoms and functioning compared to patients at both baseline and follow-up, and reported less change than patients. ICCs for baseline and change were primarily poor to moderate (range: 0.06 (for depression change) to 0.67 (for physical function baseline)), and were better at follow-up (range: 0.42 (for anxiety) to 0.84 (for physical function)). Percent exact agreement between indicating meaningful improvement versus no improvement ranged from 58.5–75.6%. Only a small proportion indicated meaningful worsening.    Conclusions  Patient-proxy agreement across 10 domains of health was better following completion of rehabilitation compared to baseline or change. Overall change was minimal but the majority of patient-proxy dyads agreed on meaningful change. Our study provides important insight for clinicians and researchers when interpreting change scores over time for questionnaires completed by both patients and proxies.
