The ICHOM Set of Patient-Centered Outcome Measures for Neurodevelopmental Disorders is the result of hard work by a group of leading clinicians, researchers, and patients. It is our recommendation of the outcomes that matter most to patients with neurodevelopmental disorders. We urge all providers around the world to start measuring these outcomes to better understand how to improve the lives of their patients.
- Includes ADHD symptoms.
- Includes Language Difficulies, Social (Pragmatic) Communication Difficulties, Fluency Difficulties, and Speech Sound Difficulties.
- Includes Vocal and Motor Tic Frequency and Severity, Fine Motor Skills, Gross Motor Skills, and Coordination.
- Includes Reading Accuracy, Reading Comprehension, Global Maths Ability, and Global Writing Ability.
- The Working Group has not recommended an outcome measure at this time as no appropriate measure was found.
- Tracked via KIDSCREEN-10
- Tracked via Family Strain Index
- Tracked via Affective Reactivity Index
- Tracked via Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire
- Tracked via Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham Rating Scale (Oppositional Defiant Disorder scale)
- Tracked using the ICHOM Pediatric Depression & Anxiety Set
- Tracked using the ICHOM Autism Spectrum Disorders Set
All of the basic information you need to implement ICHOM Sets is available in the links above. However, for a faster, more easily integrated process, we offer digitised versions of the Set measures. These are designed for immediate upload to existing EMR systems. This is available as part of our Accreditation package, which recognises your work in putting patient outcomes at the heart of treatment.
