What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the use of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) in routine clinical care to see if they improve health outcomes and satisfaction with health management. This randomized control trial involves 1,440 adult patients receiving care for breast cancer, prostate cancer, chronic kidney disease, or bariatric surgery at a public hospital in Spain. The study aims to assess the impact of incorporating these measures on patients' quality of life and communication with healthcare professionals. Participants are divided into three groups: one group completes both PROMs and PREMs monthly via a smartphone app, with their PROMs results summarized graphically for use by patients and doctors at 9 and 18 months; a second group completes only PREMs; and a control group completes evaluation questionnaires without additional interventions. Healthcare professionals also participate by completing questionnaires before and two years after implementation to assess their perspectives. During the study, patients complete evaluation questionnaires at recruitment and yearly to measure health-related quality of life (using EQ-5D-5L), satisfaction with care, and patient-professional communication. PROMs and PREMs are administered mainly via email using the REDCap platform. Participant responses help track the study's impact over two years, with safety monitoring and follow-up visits planned throughout this period.
