Resources for Researchers
HealthMeasures is a
research resource that supports, administers, and provides an integrated
platform to assess health outcomes via self-report or performance measures.
HealthMeasures provides automated use of four state-of-the-science measurement
systems that were originally developed as separate NIH programs: PROMIS®
(Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System®), Neuro-QoL (Quality
of Life in Neurological Disorders), ASCQ-Me (Adult Sickle Cell Quality of Life
Measurement Information System), and the NIH Toolbox for the Assessment of
Neurological and Behavioral Function® (NIH Toolbox®).
