CER is the generation and synthesis of evidence that compares the benefits and harms
of alternative methods to prevent, diagnosis, treat and monitor a clinical condition or to
improve the delivery of care. The purpose of CER is to assist consumers, clinicians,
purchasers, and policy makers to make informed decisions that will improve health care at both
the individual and population level.

Causality—Bradford Hill Criteria • Strength • Consistency • Specificity • Temporality • Biological gradient • Plausibility • Coherence • Experimental evidence • Analogy
Rothman, Am J Public Health, 2005
Patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR)
• CER with the patient’s voice as a centerpiece
• Stakeholder engagement
Selby, JAMA, 2012
Patient-centered outcome
• Health-related outcomes that are important to patients
Cykert, CHEST, 2000
Patient-reported outcome (PRO)
• An outcome that only the patient can report
Teeter, CHEST, 1998
PRO
• Concepts and domains • Instruments • Disease-specific versus generic • Validity • Reliability • Responsiveness • Cultural/language adaptation
