Patient reported outcomes refer to reports of the status of a patient’s health condition that comes directly from the patient. Patient reported outcome tools measure the experience of patients’ journeys, how they feel about the process and outcomes of treatment by asking questions. These tools enable assessment of patient–reported health status for physical, mental, and social well–being. There are two main groups of patient reported outcome measures. A Patient Reported Experience Measure (PREM) is a measure of a patient’s perception of their personal experience of the healthcare they have received. Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) are self-report questionnaires, completed by patients, and seek to measure their perceptions of their health status and health-related quality of life following contact with healthcare providers.
