Recently we have become accustomed to hearing about the importance of involving the patient in the management of his or her disease. The purpose of this is to use the patient\u2019s own data to adapt and improve research, the management of the healthcare process, the care offered to the patient, and the treatments. All this impacts the health and quality of life of the patients in a positive way.<\/span><\/p>\n As we already know, to achieve this we use <\/span>PROs<\/b> (<\/span>Patient-Reported Outcomes<\/a>) and <\/span>PREs<\/b> (P<\/strong><\/span>atient-Reported Experiences<\/b>), indicators that are gaining ground and becoming more important in the healthcare environment.<\/span><\/p>\n Previously we wrote about the role played by PROs and PROMs (Patient-Reported Outcome Measures) in this process. Now we are going to focus on the value provided by <\/span>PREs<\/b> and <\/span>PREMs (Patient-Reported Experience Measures<\/b>), and the differences from the first two measures.<\/span><\/p>\n What are PREs?<\/b><\/p>\n Patient-Reported Experiences or PREs<\/b> bring together the <\/span>perceptions of the patients about their experiences while they are receiving medical care. <\/b>Examples of PREs are <\/span>waiting time, access to and ability to navigate through the services, participation (patient and physician) in decision-making, quality of communication<\/b>, among others. This information is collected with validated surveys or questionnaires called PREMs (P<\/strong><\/span>atient-Reported Experience Measures<\/b>).<\/span><\/p>\n PREMs are different from PROMs in their focus on measuring the <\/span>impact that the healthcare process has on the patient\u2019s experience,<\/b> and not the health outcomes, as noted in the publication <\/span>\u201c<\/span><\/i>Patient-reported outcome measures and patient-reported experience measures\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/i>As such, they are an indicator of the quality of care received by the patient. These data become key information for <\/span>adapting the processes and centering them on the patients\u2019 needs.<\/b><\/p>\n In this way, these data can be used for <\/span>research, quality improvement projects, evaluation of the physician\u2019s performance, auditing, and economic evaluation.<\/b><\/p>\n This was seen in a study carried out in Italy between 2017 and 2019, where more than twenty-one hospitals in two regions collected this information, resulting in a <\/span>satisfying process that improved the service and management of patients in the hospitals, <\/b>as noted in the article<\/span> \u201cUsing patient-reported measures to drive change in healthcare: the experience of the digital, continuous and systematic PREMs observatory in Italy<\/span><\/i><\/a>\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n Our platform<\/span> Caaring<\/span><\/a>\u00ae<\/a> allows us to respond to these needs by collecting this kind of information directly from the patient, using <\/span>PREMs\u00a0<\/b>that provide <\/span>data about the patient during the healthcare process that could be subsequently used for the improvement of the care and services offered in clinics and hospitals.\u00a0<\/b>In addition, this information <\/span>can also be completed with PROMs<\/b>, offering a holistic view of the patient\u2019s status during his or her illness, facilitating clinical decision-making.<\/span><\/p>\n In this way, it is safe to say that the data reported by the patients about their experience are a <\/span>source of relevant information for the healthcare environment<\/b>, as they can be used as the basis for the implementation of improvements in hospital care, in turn improving the wellbeing of the patients.<\/span><\/p>\n #PatientReportedExperiences\u00a0<\/span><\/a>#PatientReportedExperienceMeasures\u00a0<\/span><\/a>#PREMs<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”20px|0px|0px|0px”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”3.19.8″ link_option_url_new_window=”on”][\/et_pb_code][et_pb_team_member name=”Tarek Milla” position=”Business Development” image_url=”https:\/\/perseivivarium.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Tarek-Milla-scaled.jpg” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/tarekmilla\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on”]<\/p>\n Persei vivarium<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_team_member][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently we have become accustomed to hearing about the importance of involving the patient in the management of his or her disease.
