Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs)

Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are used to assess a patient’s health status at a particular point in time. PROMs are standardized, validated survey tools that assess health outcomes reported by patients, in areas such as general health and quality of life, or around specific symptoms, functional ability and physical, mental and social health. They can be completed either during an illness or while treating a health condition. In some cases, using pre- and post-event PROMs can help measure the impact of an intervention.
