patient-oriented research

Patient-oriented research focuses on involving patients directly in the process of researching healthcare. It aims to understand what patients care about most, such as their experiences, preferences, and outcomes that matter to them. By including patients’ perspectives, this research helps develop better treatments, improved healthcare delivery, and policies that truly address patients’ needs. It emphasizes collaboration between researchers and patients to ensure that the results are relevant, applicable, and enhance overall health and quality of life.
