MethodThis guideline offers a clear 10-step process to help healthcare providers collect patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) consistently and effectively in routine care. It was developed to overcome common barriers like technology issues, lack of staff engagement, and poor integration into clinical workflows. The steps support the use of digital PROMs (ePROMs) so that patients' voices can improve both individual care and health system decisions.
GuidelineAppraisalData ClassificationData Quality AssessmentThe 15D is a questionnaire that measures health-related quality of life across 15 different areas. It gives both a detailed profile and a single score that shows overall quality of life, which can be used to compare health outcomes and support healthcare decisions.

Method<h4>Background</h4>It has been suggested that the EQ-5D-3 L preference-based measure of health outcome lacks sensitivity to discriminate between health states in cancer patients. An alternative approach is to use a disease (cancer) specific preference-based measure, such as the EORTC-8D. A limited n
