ePROMS Patient Recorded Outcome Measures

Digitising patient reported outcome measures is a vital step in modernising healthcare delivery. Done well, it reduces administrative burden, improves visibility of outcomes, supports remote monitoring, and allows clinicians to focus on patient care. It also provides timely, structured insights into treatment effectiveness, helping services improve quality and efficiency.

Yet many organisations still rely on paper based questionnaires or ad hoc digital forms. This can lead to delays, incomplete data, unnecessary face to face appointments, and difficulty monitoring outcomes consistently. Integrating results into existing electronic patient record systems can be complex, and staff often lack the time or resources to manage these processes effectively.

ePROMs overcomes these barriers. Built on the AireBlocks low-code platform, ePROMs is a secure, flexible solution that enables patients or their family members to complete validated outcome questionnaires anytime, anywhere, on any device, without the need for login or registration. Completed forms are automatically scored and integrated directly into the patient record, EPR or EHR or used within standalone pathways. The platform also supports automated invitations, reminders, and workflow integration, ensuring outcomes are captured efficiently and consistently.

Feedback from healthcare professionals, patients and parents is positive. It highlights that the new development has transformed the value of the digital childhood health assessment questionnaire to support consultations. Dr Gavin Cleary, Alder Hey Children's Hospital

With ePROMs, you can:

1. Capture patient outcomes efficiently: Patients complete validated symptom scoring tools online from home, reducing the need for face to face appointments.
2. Integrate seamlessly: Results feed directly into electronic patient records or standalone systems, providing clinicians with immediate visibility.
3. Automate workflows: Invitations, reminders, and scoring are automated, reducing administrative burden and enabling timely intervention.
4. Support clinical decision-making: Structured scores and trends allow clinicians to monitor treatment response and adapt care plans accordingly.
5. Scale across services: The platform can expand regionally or across integrated care systems to provide consistent outcome monitoring.

Impact in practice:

1. Alder Hey deployed ePROMs across 12 childrens services and achieved over 75% completion rates for all questionnaires, improving the timeliness and quality of clinical consultations.
2. Leeds Community Healthcare Trust digitised dietetics outcome measures, reducing paper use and saving staff time. Their implementation led to 90% of patients completing outcome measures remotely, freeing clinicians to focus on patient care and improving follow up efficiency.
3. ePROMs delivers a patient centred, secure, and cost effective solution for monitoring treatment outcomes, improving communication, and driving better healthcare delivery.
