Optimizing Patient-Reported Outcomes for Enhanced Quality, Experience and Decision-Making in Health Care
Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) are crucial in evaluating the impact of health care professionals, teams, and systems on patients’ health, quality of life, and treatment outcomes. By consistently tracking PRO scores, health care organizations can pinpoint areas of excellence and opportunities for improvement, as well as compare the effectiveness of different treatment options. This presentation will explore the benefits of PRO measures in health care and provide insights on how to seamlessly integrate these measures into clinical practice. Strategies for interpreting and utilizing PRO data to improve health care quality will also be highlighted.

Unraveling the Past, Paving the Way for the Future—Rethinking Pulmonary Function Tests Beyond Race
Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are commonly utilized for the diagnosis and ongoing monitoring of pulmonary conditions. However, the inclusion of race in the reporting and interpretation of PFT results introduces the potential to contribute to health disparities and amplify race-based health inequities. This activity aims to enhance participants’ comprehension of race-based adjustments in clinical algorithms and increase competency in race-neutral and impartial interpretation of PFTs. The faculty speaker for this webcast, Dr. Nirav Bhakta, served as the co-chair of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) workshop responsible for shaping the 2023 ATS statement on race in PFT interpretation. Drawing upon his extensive expertise as a pulmonologist and his pivotal role in the formulation of these new ATS guidelines, Dr. Bhakta will delve into the historical context behind race-specific PFTs, address the rationale behind the shift and review the pivotal aspects and implications of adopting a race-neutral approach.
