Electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes (ePRO) refers to the electronic collection of patient reported outcomes or patient reported data through the use of electronic devices such as suggested mobile devices, tablet devices, smartphones (or) other web-based applications. Rather than using paper-based questionnaires (printed forms) to record this information on a paper form, patients now have the ability to enter the information directly into an electronic database via an electronic interface.

Using ePRO improves the accuracy of clinical study results and reduces the risk of errors in manually entering data from paper-based questionnaires. Patients can complete their questionnaires electronically which gives them the benefit of having their data captured in real time (while they are being treated). In addition, ePRO provides patients with additional options for remote monitoring, particularly in the context of today’s expanded use of decentralized clinical trials and hybrid clinical trial designs. Collectively, the advantages provided by ePRO enable study sponsors and researchers to obtain complete, reliable, timely, and accurate patient reported outcome measures throughout the conduct of the clinical trial(s).
