Abstract
The numbers tell the tale. There is a great deal of variation in the use of outcomes and instruments in clinical studies and clinical practice. Also, validated and valid tools are not always used, and results are not always relevant to the pa-tient. The reporting also leaves much to be desired. Clini-metry works on developing core outcome sets and core practice sets. All stakeholders including patients are invol-ved in this process. By harmonizing outcomes, we will be able to better follow up, compare and pool evidence and practical experiences in the future to improve clinical care.
