Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)

The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) is a system developed to assess health-related quality of life from the patient's perspective. It includes surveys and tools that ask individuals about their physical, mental, and social well-being. By gathering this information, PROMIS helps healthcare providers understand how patients feel and function in their daily lives. This data can inform treatment decisions, track changes over time, and improve care. Essentially, PROMIS prioritizes the patient's voice, making it a valuable resource in healthcare for measuring health outcomes effectively.
