PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System)

PROMIS, or the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System, is a set of tools designed to assess patients' health-related quality of life. It gathers information about how individuals feel and function, covering areas like physical, mental, and social well-being. By using standardized questionnaires, PROMIS allows healthcare providers to better understand patients' experiences and needs. This data can inform treatment decisions, track health over time, and enhance communication between patients and providers, ultimately aiming to improve patient care and outcomes.
