Summary
Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient reported experience measures (PREMs) are increasingly vital in healthcare. Their development and adoption are fundamental for prioritizing orthodontic research and practice.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare research
- Clinical practice
- Patient-centered care
Background:
- Growing importance of patient perspectives in healthcare evaluation.
- Need for standardized methods to capture patient experiences and outcomes.
- Current gaps in the integration of patient-reported data in orthodontics.
Purpose of the Study:
- To highlight the critical role of PROMs and PREMs in modern healthcare.
- To emphasize the necessity of developing, implementing, and adopting these measures.
- To underscore their significance in advancing orthodontic research and clinical practice.
Main Methods:
- Review of current literature on PROMs and PREMs in healthcare.
- Analysis of the impact of patient-reported data on research priorities.
- Examination of implementation strategies for PROMs and PREMs in orthodontic settings.
Main Results:
- PROMs and PREMs are essential for patient-centered healthcare.
- Effective development and implementation are key to successful adoption.
- These measures significantly influence the direction of orthodontic research.
Conclusions:
- Prioritizing the development and adoption of PROMs and PREMs is crucial for orthodontic research.
- Integrating patient-reported data enhances the relevance and impact of orthodontic practice.
- A focus on patient outcomes and experiences is fundamental for future advancements.

Characteristics of Practical Op Amps
843
A difference amplifier, a crucial component in numerous electronic devices, ideally amplifies only the difference-mode signal, which is the difference between two input signals. However, in practical circuits, the output voltage depends on both the differential gain and the common-mode gain.
The ratio of differential gain to the common-mode gain is defined as the common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR). This ratio quantifies the ability of operational amplifiers (op-amps) to reject common-mode...

Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice
17.3K
Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

Equivalent Circuits for Practical Transformers
1.4K
The practical equivalent circuits of single-phase two-winding transformers exhibit significant deviations from their idealized versions due to the inherent properties of winding resistance and finite core permeability. These properties result in real and reactive power losses, affecting the transformer's performance. Understanding these deviations is crucial for designing more efficient transformers.
In a practical transformer, each winding exhibits resistance and leakage reactance. The...

Patient-centered Care
2.9K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients
229
Elderly individuals encompass a diverse population with varying degrees of age-related physiological changes. Defining the elderly presents challenges, as the geriatric population is often arbitrarily categorized as individuals older than 65. However, many individuals in this group lead active and healthy lives, with an increasing number surpassing 85 years and falling into the older elderly category. Physiological changes associated with aging impact performance capacity and homeostatic...

Drug Dosing: Obese Patients
238
In the United States, obesity is a prominent concern. It is linked to heightened mortality rates due to increased occurrences of conditions such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and diabetes compared to nonobese individuals. A patient is classified as obese if their actual body weight surpasses the ideal or desirable body weight by 20%, based on Metropolitan Life Insurance Company data. Ideal body weights consider average weights and heights for males and females...
