• The synthesis will use the National Consensus Project framework, which defines eight core domains of quality palliative care. — Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) used in ambulatory palliative care for adult patients with cancer in low-income and middle-income countries: a systematic review protocol
• Each PROM and PREM will be independently coded by two reviewers according to the NCP domains it addresses. — Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) used in ambulatory palliative care for adult patients with cancer in low-income and middle-income countries: a systematic review protocol
• The NCP framework was selected because it captures palliative care's multidimensional nature and can map both PROMs and PREMs. — Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) used in ambulatory palliative care for adult patients with cancer in low-income and middle-income countries: a systematic review protocol
• Multi-domain instruments will be decomposed at item and subscale level to allow granular mapping. — Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) used in ambulatory palliative care for adult patients with cancer in low-income and middle-income countries: a systematic review protocol
• The protocol anticipates that spiritual, cultural, legal, and ethical domains may be underrepresented relative to physical symptoms. — Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) used in ambulatory palliative care for adult patients with cancer in low-income and middle-income countries: a systematic review protocol
