Registry of Outcome Measures

Review / Selection

The review tree is designed to support the co-ordinated reviews of outcome measures with respect to their application for a specific disease. It aims to record a range of information, from the outcome measures that are being considered in the review, to the final determination of the review. The idea is to make this information available to all members of a review group from a single location and to make the information learned during the review available to other researchers.
