Rehabilitation Outcomes Measurement Core - University of Michigan

The Rehabilitation Outcomes Measurement Core (ROM) at the University of Michigan works directly with BADER Consortium Principal Investigators to provide assistance in selecting and using appropriate outcome measures in their research.

Services provided:

• Consult with PIs to recommend optimal outcome measures
• Provide outcome measures training and training materials for on-site use
• Design and create measurement platforms (e.g. web-based data capture portals) for BADER projects
• Develop new patient reported outcome measures to allow for examination of the full range of outcomes
• Provide guidance on measurement-integration, statistical analyses approaches, and interpretation of results
• Proposal consultation, review, and feedback

Core mechanics:

ROM provides study PIs with a brief Proposal Evaluation Template that serves as a mechanism for ROM to provide detailed feedback about the selection and utilization of outcome measures in a given study.
