Can patient-reported outcome measures predict mortality in neurological populations? A systematic review

Key Points

PROMs predict mortality in various neurological conditions, highlighting their potential clinical utility.
Prognostic value of PROMs differs based on specific neurological conditions and the type of instrument used.
Systematic review assesses the effectiveness of PROMs in predicting mortality across diverse patient groups.
Further studies are needed to explore how to integrate PROMs into routine prognostic models.

Abstract

PROMs independently predict mortality in several neurological conditions, though prognostic value varied by condition and instrument type. Future studies should evaluate their additive value and feasibility for integration into prognostic models in routine care.
