Research group for Patient Reported Outcomes and Health Literacy is aiming to be a research network and communicate methodological issues within patient reported outcomes studies and health literacy research. The group is multidisciplinary and has varied research activities related to a wide span of research questions within different patient groups.
Centre of Patient reported outcomes research was established January 2021 to strengthen the use of patient-reported data (PRO) within clinical research at the Department of Transplantation Medicine.
PRO-data provide unique information on the physical, functional and psychological impact of a treatment from the patient’s perspective. Within the area of transplantation, patients’ perspectives on their health are increasingly acknowledged as valuable and vital in order to provide patient-centred healthcare.
