Introduction[edit | edit source]
An outcome measure is a tool used to assess a patient's current status. It can provide a score, an interpretation of results and/or a risk categorisation of the patient. It can provide baseline data prior to an intervention and the initial results may help determine and direct the course of any treatment intervention. The outcome measure can also be used during the course of treatment to assess any "change in the construct of interest over time, during and after rehabilitation."[1]
Outcome measures that are used in clinical practice include:
- Patient-reported outcome measures (PROM)
