Patient-reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) Developed in the last 30 years to involve patients directly in judgements of health status and outcomes of services Developed in the last 30 years to involve patients directly in judgements of health status and outcomes of services Variously termed measures of: Variously termed measures of: Health status, health-related quality of life, functional status, patient-reported outcome or outcome Health status, health-related quality of life, functional status, patient-reported outcome or outcome Usually short self-report questionnaires Usually short self-report questionnaires Generic (EQ-5D and SF-36) or disease-specific (QOLIE-89 for epilepsy) Generic (EQ-5D and SF-36) or disease-specific (QOLIE-89 for epilepsy)

Why collect PROMs data? If quality is to be at the heart of everything we do, it must be understood from the perspective of patients. Patients pay regard both to clinical outcomes and their experience of the service... If quality is to be at the heart of everything we do, it must be understood from the perspective of patients. Patients pay regard both to clinical outcomes and their experience of the service... Quality of care should include effectiveness of care. This means understanding success rates from different treatments from different treatments for different conditions. Assessing this will include clinical measures such as mortality or survival rates, complication rates……. Just as important is the effectiveness of care from the patient’s own perspective which will be measured through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs)… Quality of care should include effectiveness of care.

Why collect PROMs data? NHS Outcomes Framework domains NHS Outcomes Framework domains Effectiveness of treatment and care provided – measured by clinical outcomes and patient-reported outcomes Effectiveness of treatment and care provided – measured by clinical outcomes and patient-reported outcomes Safety of treatment and care provided Safety of treatment and care provided Broader experience patients have of the treatment and care they receive Broader experience patients have of the treatment and care they receive Department of Health.

Aims and objectives To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of using PROMs for long-term conditions (LTCs) in primary care To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of using PROMs for long-term conditions (LTCs) in primary care To assess possible barriers to individuals with LTCs completing PROMs To assess possible barriers to individuals with LTCs completing PROMs To assess cost of collecting PROMs data To assess cost of collecting PROMs data LTCs LTCs asthma, COPD, diabetes, epilepsy, heart failure and stroke asthma, COPD, diabetes, epilepsy, heart failure and stroke

What do practices need to do? Consent to automatic database search to identify patients Practice staff check of patient list Print address labels Attach labels to pre-packed questionnaires and reminders Mail questionnaires After 2 weeks, mail reminders

PROMs pilot database search Automatic and remote search of GP QOF databases by Apollo Medical Systems Ltd. Automatic and remote search of GP QOF databases by Apollo Medical Systems Ltd. Apollo developed software for Apollo developed software for GP patient survey by the Department of Health GP patient survey by the Department of Health No information on patients will be available to Apollo or the research team No information on patients will be available to Apollo or the research team Search run over night to not disrupt practices day to day work Search run over night to not disrupt practices day to day work

Analysis Survey Survey Response rates and quality of information between the two surveys (cohort vs. cross-sectional), over time (cohort) and for the 6 LTCs Response rates and quality of information between the two surveys (cohort vs. cross-sectional), over time (cohort) and for the 6 LTCs Qualitative interviews Qualitative interviews Thematic analysis to identify barriers to completing PROMs (individuals with LTC) Thematic analysis to identify barriers to completing PROMs (individuals with LTC) Thematic analysis to identify value of using PROMs and barriers to PROMs (professional stakeholders) Thematic analysis to identify value of using PROMs and barriers to PROMs (professional stakeholders)

Results and outcomes Results (response rates, completeness of data, estimation of cost) will inform DH decisions whether PROMs are an acceptable way of involving the public and measuring health outcomes of the NHS on a large, national scale Results (response rates, completeness of data, estimation of cost) will inform DH decisions whether PROMs are an acceptable way of involving the public and measuring health outcomes of the NHS on a large, national scale Results will enable DH to decide whether PROMs can be more generally rolled out to engage the public in the assessment of quality of health care services for LTCs Results will enable DH to decide whether PROMs can be more generally rolled out to engage the public in the assessment of quality of health care services for LTCs
