Patient Outcomes
Patient Reported Outcomes
Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROMs) are key metrics used to assess the improvement of patients post surgery.
By assessing the patient’s capacity to engage in activities of daily living like dressing, washing, and household mobility, healthcare providers can gauge the effectiveness of the surgery. When patients fail to meet recovery milestones, patient-reported outcomes data empowers providers to adapt care strategies to suit individual needs, enhancing recovery, and fostering positive outcomes.
These points focus on the functional recovery milestones that matter most to patients, using data points from PatientIQ. KCOA has collected over 145,000 PROMs, with over 12,000 patients enrolled and 11,000+ surgeries tracked through March 2026 by PatientIQ.
