The ICHOM Set of Patient-Centered Outcome Measures for Pregnancy And Childbirth is the result of hard work by a group of leading physicians, measurement experts and patients. It is our recommendation of the outcomes that matter most to persons experiencing Pregnancy And Childbirth. We urge all providers around the world to start measuring these outcomes to better understand how to improve the lives of their patients.
- Tracked via the PROMIS-10
- Evaluated with the PHQ-2, optional follow-up with the EPDS
- Option to track via the BSES-SF
- Tracked via the ICIQ-SF and Wexner, Wexner and the PROMIS SFFAC102
- Tracked via the MIBs
- Tracked via the BSS-R
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.
