P276 Development of patient reported experience measure (PREM) for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) [PDF]
Background Research into patient experiences of living with IPF has increased. A key challenge is how to use this data intelligently to enable commissioners and providers to improve the quality of services delivered to this group of patients. This project aims to develop an IPF-PREM informed by patients’ perceptions of their healthcare experiences ...

A perspective on the use of patient-reported experience and patient-reported outcome measures in ambulatory healthcare [PDF]
IntroductionPatient-reported experience measures (PREMs) are patient reports about their healthcare, whereas patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are reports about their functioning and well-being regarding physical, mental, and social health.

Erasing Quantum Distinguishability via Single-Mode Filtering [PDF]
Erasing quantum-mechanical distinguishability is of fundamental interest and also of practical importance, particularly in subject areas related to quantum information processing. We demonstrate a method applicable to optical systems in which single-mode filtering is used with only linear optical instruments to achieve quantum indistinguishability ...

Optical-fiber source of polarization-entangled photon pairs in the 1550nm telecom band [PDF]
We present a fiber based source of polarization-entangled photon pairs that is well suited for quantum communication applications in the 1550nm band of standard fiber-optic telecommunications. Polarization entanglement is created by pumping a nonlinear-fiber Sagnac interferometer with two time-delayed orthogonally-polarized pump pulses and subsequently

Mass-Radius Relation for Rocky Planets based on PREM [PDF]
Several small dense exoplanets are now known, inviting comparisons to Earth and Venus. Such comparisons require translating their masses and sizes to composition models of evolved multi-layer-interior planets. Such theoretical models rely on our understanding of the Earth's interior, as well as independently derived equations of state (EOS), but have ...

Including patient-reported measures in performance evaluation systems: Patient contribution in assessing and improving the healthcare systems [PDF]
In healthcare, the introduction of quality standards and indicators to assess performance triggered the development of multidimensional Performance Management Systems (PMSs). The concept of performance in healthcare has recently evolved and broadened its
