PROsetta: An R Package for Linking Patient-Reported Outcome Measures
Host: Benjamin Schalet, PhD, Associate Professor of Medical Social Sciences, Northwestern University
A common problem when using a variety of Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) measures is the comparability of scales on which the outcomes are reported. Linking establishes relationships between scores on two different measures. The PRO Rosetta Stone (PROsetta Stone®) developed and applied methods to link the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) with other related instruments (e.g., SF-36, Brief Pain Inventory, CES-D, MASQ, FACIT-Fatigue) to expand the range of PRO assessment options within a common, standardized metric. It provides equivalent scores for different scales that measure the same health outcome.

Dr. Yuan presented information on how PROMIS measures are being used in China and answered questions from participants. The oral presentation is in Chinese; slides are in English.Hosts: Nan Rothrock, PhD and Michelle Langer, PhD, Northwestern University, Chicago
PROMIS measures are increasingly utilized to inform individual patient care. Integrating patient self-report in clinical care is complex. Join this webinar to learn more about guidance and resources now available at HealthMeasures.net to support the implementation of PROMIS measures for patient care. We will also review advantages of several administration platforms.

Are you new to PROMIS®? This introductory didactic session focuses on the theory and rigorous methodology used in developing PROMIS measures and testing their validity. The growing emphasis on patient-centered care has increased the demand for high-quality data from patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures. Item response theory (IRT) offers promise for addressing practical measurement problems in health-related research that have been difficult to solve through classical methods. This recorded session from PHO's PROMIS Training Workshop is followed by Q&A with Dr.Gershon.
Dr. Hanmer's session is targeted at groups that are trying to collect PROs, usually through an electronic medical record (EMR) or through a third-party system that is distributed across a healthcare system. Q&A followed the presentation.
Learn the steps needed to move from PROMIS basics to implementation in clinical practice. Dr. Makhni will review his experience in creating a PROMIS CAT platform through Epic, including how to design a successful automated platform that can be used across multiple departments and service lines.
Implementing PROs in your office? Join us to discuss lessons learned and emerging best practices to support complete PRO capture in busy clinical offices - a microsystem approach. Following an overview of operational systems approaches in planning PRO capture, a roundtable discussion will share lessons on facilitators and barriers to implementing PROs in busy clinical settings.
