Optimizing Pediatric Health Outcomes: Implementing PROMs and PREMs

Introduction

In the realm of pediatric healthcare, the integration of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) and Patient-Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) is pivotal. These tools not only amplify the voice of children and their families in healthcare settings but also enhance the quality of care by providing insights into patient experiences and outcomes. However, the implementation of these measures is fraught with challenges.
