DADOS platform is a web-based application for electronically collecting and managing data related to treatment outcomes. The clean and intuitive interface allows clinics to collect data from their patients within a clinic setting. The flexible administrative backend of the platform gives users complete control over subject information and collection schedules and also includes useful reporting and tracking tools. DADOS is an intuitive yet flexible solution that gives both research teams and clinicians what they want while providing a perfect balance between high regulatory compliance and the best of breed functionality.
The application was initially implemented within various clinics and programs at the University Health Network in Canada. Designed to handle prospective clinical research and patient-reported outcomes, the DADOS Platform is developed, maintained and supported by the Electronic Data Capture Program at the Techna Institute.
Capitalizing on the power of DADOS analytics, Plastics uses DADOS to measure and improve quality and performance within their practice. Quality healthcare delivery relies on measured outcome data, and as such, participating in registry development and centralized data collection has become essential for Plastic Surgery to allow them to proactively participate in the national quality and performance measurement agenda
Learn about how DADOS can can help create new systems and forms to collect specialized data sets.
The Orthopaedic department at UHN has worked with DADOS to overhaul their antiquated data collection system, learn about how that worked for them.
Patient-reported outcomes are fundamental in moving health care closer to a value-based model. A recent article published in Health IT Analytics lists some best practices for optimizing your collection of PROs, such as setting clear goals, using validated questions, and avoiding repetitions.

Interested in adding PROs to your practice? DADOS is a platform for securely collecting PROs and can help healthcare providers determine the right care for their patients in real-time.
With healthcare moving towards the value-based model, more practitioners are using patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to document their patients’ quality of life. Based on a survey by Health Catalyst only one in five hospitals in the U.S. use PROs consistently. Among the respondents who used patient reported outcomes to some extent were those engaged in chronic disease management, surgical interventions, post-surgical patient tracking, mental healthcare, and cancer management. Read the full article to learn how providing patients with a more active role in their care decision-making can improve their health.
However, the survey also indicated that nearly three-quarters of respondents had plans to begin using PROs. DADOS can help with these objectives, offering PROs for various specialties including orthopedics, plastic surgery, rheumatology, rehabilitation, as well as prostate and head and neck cancer. Designed with the patient in mind, DADOS guides care delivery and allows physicians to tailor treatment to the needs of each patient.
The latest PROMs developments were the focus of a recent UK National PROMs research conference with patients, clinicians, researchers, and academics in attendance.
With “integration and innovation” as the theme, this year’s conference focused on how clinicians can better integrate PROMs into their practice in order to improve patient care. Read the full article to learn more about how PROMs offer a unique view into patients’ personal experience and health goals: https://blogs.bmj.com/bmj/2019/07/23/patient-involvement-in-proms-individual-opportunity-and-strategic-challenge/
DADOS offers patients the ability to access the system on mobile devices at dedicated kiosks or on tablets connected to the hospital network, making it easy for your patients to provide PROMs.
