Patient Reported Outcome Measures

We would like cosmetic surgery service providers to routinely collect and report on Q-PROMs for all patients receiving the following procedures:

  • abdominoplasty;
  • augmentation mammoplasty;
  • blepharoplasty;
  • liposuction;
  • rhinoplasty;
  • rhytidectomy.

Patient satisfaction with the outcomes of cosmetic surgery is of singular importance. Completion of PROMs, pre- and post-operatively, allows for a patient’s own measurement of their health and health-related quality of life, and how this has been changed by the surgical intervention. PROMs are distinct from more general measures of satisfaction and experience, being procedure-specific, validated and constructed to reduce bias effects.

The questionnaires should ideally be completed by the patient and collected pre- and post-operatively. The completed questionnaires should be scored and any changes between the scores can be attributed to the surgical intervention.

Tools to support data analysis

Using the data gathered from the Q-PROMs

We recognise there will be challenges in collecting this information. However, the data gathered from the use of PROMs can be used in a variety of ways to empower patients, inform decision making and, where relevant, support quality improvement.
