Improving measurement 1: Harnessing the PROMise of outcome measures

Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are completed by patients to capture one or more aspects of their health and wellbeing, typically taking the form of standardised and validated questionnaires.1 They are broadly divided into generic PROMs and site, disease or condition-specific.2 Their psychometric robustness is of paramount importance, the methods of which and how to assess for this are described in detail in this journal and elsewhere.2,3 The number of PROMs available and their profile amongst clinicians is rising, such as with the recent Royal College of Surgeons advice for the routine collection of PROMs for all those undergoing cosmetic surgery as part of their Cosmetic Surgery Standards.
