Abstract

Consideration of indicators of an individual's perceptions and attitudes is valuable to reflect the impact of physical findings on quality of life. In this regard, practical outcome measures assist in concluding. Self-Reported Outcome Measures (SROMs) corroborate medical findings and allow for easy profiling (eliciting information about the patient's condition). Even if their frequent usage in clinical and scientific studies, there is confusion over taxonomy, terminology, and definitions of outcome measures. Sometimes, clinicians face some obscurity of the complexity of the features and concepts those measurements represent. This leads to misnaming or misidentification of measurement tools. Users also have difficulty choosing the right tool because of this confusion. This study aims to describe and standardize the terminology of outcome measures and to clarify the classifications with examples. Thus, we aimed to increase the knowledge and awareness of health professionals about the measurement tools, make them interrogate their qualities and features, and encourage them to choose more appropriate ones.
