Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)

Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO) are measurements that capture a patient's own perspective on their health, well-being, and quality of life. These outcomes are reported directly by the patient, without interpretation by healthcare professionals. PROs can include information about symptoms, functional abilities, and emotional well-being, often gathered through surveys or questionnaires. They are valuable in understanding the impact of diseases and treatments from the patient's viewpoint, helping healthcare providers make informed decisions and improve care. Ultimately, PROs highlight what matters most to patients in their health journey.
