Institute of Outcomes Research

Outcomes Research 4.0

Background

Our primary aim is to measure and analyse the effects of treatments, with an emphasis on patient perspectives and experiences, and in doing so, to empower patients and help healthcare providers use health data in innovative ways to improve healthcare.

Application

We optimize clinical measurement methods, standardize patient care pathways, and digitise endpoints. We develop, implement, and evaluate digital solutions, collect data from the patient’s perspective, and create movement and activity profiles using sensors and e-health applications. Our work generates an evidence basis and tools needed for the personalised medicine of the future.

Our group combines specialised competencies in health and medicine with expertise in research methodology and analysis. Our projects come from the fields of impact research, outcome data science, text mining, data governance, digital health, health science, as well as musculoskeletal health, rheumatology, rehabilitation, anaesthesia, diabetes, dietetics, epidemiology, curative education, geriatrics and long-term care, nephrology, oncology, orthopaedics, paediatrics, psychology and public health.
