Pediatric Outcome Data Collection Instrument (PODCI)

The Pediatric Outcome Data Collection Instrument (PODCI) is a standardized questionnaire used to assess the health and quality of life of children with various medical conditions, particularly musculoskeletal issues. It gathers information from patients and their caregivers about the child’s physical functioning, symptoms, and emotional well-being. By analyzing this data, healthcare professionals can better understand the impact of a condition or treatment on a child’s daily activities and overall well-being, helping to guide treatment decisions and improve care.
