Incorporating patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) into clinical registries [ 2018 - 2019 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Rachael Morton (Principal investigator)

Brief description Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are questionnaires that measure a person's physical symptoms such as pain or nausea, quality of life, and well-being. Traditionally these measures have not been used to assess the quality of medical treatments in routine care. This project seeks to implement PROMs alongside biological outcomes into the national kidney dialysis (ANZDATA) registry, and evaluate the feasibility and acceptability by patients, clinicians and policy makers
