PROMs

PROMs (Patient-reported outcome measures) are self-reported measures used by patients to track the results of their care. We offer advice and support in this area.

Our services

These services are open to all individuals and organizations working in the fields of health research, health care and social services, as well as to the general public.

  • Advice on the selection of suitable PREMs/PROMs tools
  • Helping you identify the PREMs/PROMs best suited to your objectives
  • Helping implement existing PREMs/PROMs
  • Help a patient community understand how PREMs/PROMs can guide care

Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are self-reported measures that capture patients’ views of their health status, i.e., their outcomes of care.

The person receiving care is the expert in their own life with their own health condition. They must be included as a partner in care to ensure optimal management of their condition according to their values and preferences. To promote person-centred care, many health and social services professionals invite patients to express their views on their health condition. The use of questionnaires, completed by patients, is necessary to gather this information. The survey of PREMs and PROMs continues after care, in the home.
