Rehab Guru provides tools to create and customise patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for client assessments. This guide will walk you through using existing PROMs and creating new ones, including setting up auto-calculation for scoring.

Step 1: Using Existing PROMs

  • Navigate to Account>Forms.

  • Browse the Sample Forms, where you can find PROMs. These are pre-configured forms with built-in auto-calculations.

Step 2: Creating a New PROM

  • If you do not find the specific PROM you need, you can create a new one by following these steps:

  • Click on Add Template (the blue button in the top right of the screen).

  • Enter the Name of the patient-reported outcome measure.

  • If there are different sections to the PROM, create and name each section accordingly.

Step 3: Adding and Configuring Questions

  • Write each Question as per the PROM’s format. For example, if the question is a Single Choice type, add the possible answers and enter their values.

  • Use the options to make the question Required or Optional as needed.

  • Click on Advanced Configuration to:

  • Designate the question as part of an outcome measure.

  • Assign Numerical Values to each answer for scoring.

Configuring each question with required fields and assigning numerical values

  • If the PROM has multiple questions with similar formats, use the Duplicate button to quickly replicate the question. You can then adjust the wording or answers as needed.

  • For each new question, ensure the Advanced Configuration is updated with the correct numerical values.

Step 4: Adding Auto-Calculation

  • To enable Auto-Calculation of scores, click Add Question and select Formula from the drop-down list.

  • Each question has its own unique ID (e.g., $48FC), which you can use to reference answers in the formula.

  • Simply click on the questions you want to include in the calculation. The system will automatically add their values together, or you can customise the formula further.

Step 5: Saving and Managing the PROM

  • Once you're satisfied with the PROM, click Save to store the template in your saved forms list.

  • If you need to make changes later, you can always click Edit or Delete from the saved forms list.
