[Evaluating patient experience in oncology and chronic diseases: Critical analysis of available tools (PROMs, PREMs, Satisfaction)].

Care quality assessment emerged in the late 1990s, leading to the integration of users into healthcare systems. To integrate patient perceptions, resources such as PROs (Patient Reported Outcomes), PROMs (Patient-Reported Outcome Measures), satisfaction and patient experts or partners have been developed. PREMs (Patient-Reported Experience Measures) have recently emerged, bringing a fresh perspective to improving quality and care pathways, but are still little-known. The aim of this study is to carry out a critical analysis of available publications on tools for evaluating the patient's experience of the care pathway for a chronic disease, with a focus on oncology, and to identify common themes. A literature search was carried out from June 2023 to March 2024. It focused on the concepts of quality of life, satisfaction and patient experience. Seventy-nine articles related to patient experience were identified, including 44 in oncology and 35 outside oncology. The measures analyzed include experience questions as well as satisfaction questions and/or PROMs measures. Nevertheless, they address concordant domains that are important to the patient. This study has shown a consistent development of PROMs and patient satisfaction. PROMs and patient experience are still new. Their use remains focused on targeted stages of care, and there is a lack of tools for assessing the patient's care pathway more globally.
