The center for outcomes-based orthopaedic research (coor) pursues patient-centered outcomes research, which has been defined as the study of the end results of medical treatment, which is intended to provide scientific evidence to support patient and physician decisions regarding medical treatment. The institute's outcomes research is based on physician/patient assessment of improvement in function, quality of life and patient satisfaction. Outcomes research provides a tool to link the patient's perspective to the effectiveness of health treatment. This allows for increased participation by patients in the decision-making process regarding the kind of care they desire. Our goal in coor is to learn from patients and validate treatment protocols in an effort to improve the quality of health care for every patient.
