Following publication of the original article [1], we have been notified that one of an error in the Conclusions section of the Abstract.

The range of correlations should read “0.4 to 0.6” instead of “0.4 to -0.6” in the phrase “There is a general consistency in the correlations between the repeated PROMs, with the majority 31 being in the range of 0.4 to 0.6.”

The original article has been corrected.
