Routine outcome measurement

Routine outcome measurement (ROM), also known as routine outcome monitoring, refers to the systematic tracking of client progress during psychotherapy using a standardized self-report inventory or rating scale. Therapists administer brief outcome measures at regular intervals (e.g. each session or monthly) to quantify symptoms, functioning, or well-being. The goal is to use this feedback to inform treatment decisions, tailor interventions, and promptly address issues if a patient is not improving as expected.
