Overview

Scoping review aims to clarify quality of care and develop patient-derived indicators for multiple long-term conditions, suggesting ways to improve health outcomes.

Key Points

  • People with multiple long-term conditions often experience poorer quality of life and health outcomes.
  • There is a lack of understanding regarding what quality of care means in the context of multiple long-term conditions.
  • A systematic review will search multiple databases to gather evidence on quality of care indicators developed by patients.
  • Improving quality of care indicators aims to better meet the complex needs of patients with multiple long-term conditions.
