Studies Using Core Outcome Measurement Set

Click to Enlarge

A NIH National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute working group recommended this core outcome measurement set (COMS) for all studies evaluating post-hospital patient outcomes. PubMed

Below are example publications and study protocols that report all components of the Core Outcome Measurement Set (COMS) for post-hospital research of acute respiratory failure survivors.
