Introduction to Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs)
Category: Outcomes research
Description
Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are essential for capturing the true impact of healthcare interventions. From pharmaceutical clinical trials to measuring the impact and quality of care received in the NHS, PROMs provide a vital patient perspective on health and quality of life. But how do you choose the right one to avoid problems down the line?
This one-day course gives you a comprehensive background on PROMs and their use in both the pharmaceutical and public sectors. You will learn how to select and implement PROMs effectively, whether you are measuring the benefits of a new medicine or assessing the quality of a surgical procedure.
We will cover key topics including:
- An introduction to PROMs and their distinct applications.
- Strategies for selecting the right PROM.
- Best practices for administering PROMs.
- A dedicated session on health utilities and their role in economic evaluations.
By the end of this course, you will have the expertise to confidently choose, use, and interpret PROMs to strengthen your research, clinical assessments, or quality improvement initiatives. A provisional agenda for this course is available
