importance of using <strong>R<\/strong><\/span><b>eal-World Data of the patient, beyond just the clinical information.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Data from the outpatient setting that are

to obtain information about the general status of the patient, and the effectiveness and impact of a treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthcare professionals are choosing to collect this type of information from their patients to complement the <\/span><b>clinical inpatient information<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as we point out in our article

quality of life of the people who are living with a disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These Real-World Data provided by the patients are already known as <\/span><b>PROs and

400;\">) refer to a \u201c<\/span><b>measurement of any aspect of a patient&#8217;s health status [symptoms, quality of life, etc.] that comes directly from the patient (i.e., without the interpretation of the patient&#8217;s responses by a physician or anyone else<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u201d These PROs, among other benefits,<\/span><a

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, thus helping to determine whether they make a difference in the patient\u2019s health and quality of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>PREs (patient-reported experiences<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), on the other hand, are<\/span><a

experience of the patient during the healthcare process.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This information can help improve the management of the healthcare process: time used in care, the process that is followed, communication with healthcare professionals, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this way, PROs and PREs are key to a<\/span><a

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but also because they enable the <\/span><b>patients to participate in the management of their own disease<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, improving their understanding and facilitating the management of their treatment, as well as the maintenance of therapeutic adherence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And \u2026 <\/span><b>How do we collect these data?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 These data can be actively entered by the patient, thanks to remote patient monitoring platforms, for example, or passively with devices such as wearables: watches that track heart rate or even a mobile phone that gathers data on physical activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/transparency\/documents-register\/detail?ref=COM(2014)219&amp;lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">European Commission<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has noted that the use of mobile phones enables the monitoring of the patient in his or her own environment, and facilitates the collection of a considerable amount of personal medical data, as well as patient\u2019s access to his or her own medical information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To respond to these needs,<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/perseivivarium.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Persei vivarium<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">

our remote patient monitoring platform that facilitates the collection of this kind of data from the patients:\u00a0<\/span><b>symptoms, adverse events, quality of life,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultimately, it is becoming more and more important to collect this information from patients. It complements the clinical data and the information about the patient\u2019s experience, improving quality of life and the healthcare process. All of this would not be possible without the development of technology that enables the collection of data in a way that is simple, secure, and efficient.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RealWorldData?src=hashtag_click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#RealWorldData\u00a0<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/PatientData?src=hashtag_click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#PatientData\u00a0<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/PROMS?src=hashtag_click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#PROMs\u00a0<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/PREMS?src=hashtag_click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#PREMs<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;24px|0px|27px|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_team_member name=&#8221;Ana D\u00edaz-Roncero&#8221; position=&#8221;Business Development&#8221; image_url=&#8221;https:\/\/perseivivarium.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Ana-Diaz-Roncero.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.1&#8243; link_option_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ana-diaz-roncero-gonzalez\/&#8221; link_option_url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Persei vivarium<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_team_member][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_team_member name=&#8221;Patricia Dom\u00ednguez&#8221; position=&#8221;Business Development&#8221; image_url=&#8221;https:\/\/perseivivarium.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Patri-2.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.1&#8243; link_option_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/patricia-dom%C3%ADnguez-a18b3866\/&#8221; link_option_url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Persei vivarium<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_team_member][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we have mentioned in some of our articles, we have become more and more accustomed to hearing people talk about the importance of using real-life patient data, beyond just the clinical information.
