This symposium will focus on the application and interpretation of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) used in rehabilitation settings.  General Clinical Profiles of Brain Injury, Stroke, and Spinal Cord Injury and their relationship to Patient-Reported Outcomes using the NIH PROMIS^® Global Health measure will be described. Practical guidance on the implementation and interpretation of PROs for clinical practice and research as it relates to acute rehabilitation outcomes will be provided, along with discussion points pertaining to the congruence and incongruence between the provider and patient-reported outcomes and perceptions and their impact on patient care. 

Learning Objectives:

• Describe Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) using the NIH PROMIS® Global Health measure within a rehabilitation population
• Identify clinical utility for differences between patient and clinician reported outcomes
• Discuss advantages, challenges and lessons learned in the integration of PRO measures within rehabilitation populations
