Patient Reported Outcome Measurements (PROM)

In this episode, Dr. Pervez Sultan, a leading expert in creating obstetric Patient Reported Outcome Measurements (PROMs), including the validated Obstetric quality of recovery (OBsQoR-10), discusses their future in our field. And let me tell you, their future is PROMising, from using it as a benchmark score to compare amongst institutions to analyzing results between obstetricians and anesthesiologists alike to explore which technique(s) (e.g., uterus exteriorization vs. no exteriorization; intrathecal morphine doses) provide the best functional recovery for our patients.
