Patient-reported outcome measures in third molar surgery: a scoping review
- Abstract:
- Despite a surge of interest in patient-centred outcomes (PROMs) in healthcare settings, they remain an underutilised resource in third molar surgery. Clinicians and researchers in the field of oral surgery who are interested in incorporating PROMs into their clinical practice may face challenges in instrument selection with as yet no consensus registry available. PROMs have undoubtedly transcended their original brief as research instruments, with the collection of PROMs data now a routine undertaking in many healthcare systems. Quality improvement, appropriate resource allocation, and measurement of effectiveness of interventions are but a few of their advantages. This review article presents a scoping overview of the instruments most relevant to the third molar surgery population.
