- Definition
- A proxy is a person who reports an outcome as if she/he was the patient him/herself. Proxy reports are not recommended for unobservable symptoms that can be known only by the patient. A proxy-reported outcome is not a PRO but is a measurement based on a report by someone other than the patient reporting as if he or she is the patient. A proxy-reported outcome is not a valid endpoint.
