 Patients are becoming more involved in clinical research and service evaluation, which can lead to improved patient experiences and better quality of care. Patient-reported outcomes, PROs, and patient-reported outcome measures, PROMs, are being used to measure patient experiences and quality of care. These include patient-reported experiences measures, PREMs, and patient and public involvement, PPI, initiatives. PREMs provide feedback from patients about their experiences with healthcare or treatments, while PROMs are tools and or instruments used to measure PROs. The use of PREMs as quality indicators of patient care and safety is gaining traction internationally, reflecting the commitment of healthcare providers to involve patients and the public in the wider context of service delivery and quality improvement.
