Pa𝘵ien𝘵-cen𝘵ered care considers cul𝘵ural 𝘵radi𝘵ions, personal preferences, values,
families, and lifes𝘵yles. Clien𝘵s become ac𝘵ive par𝘵icipan𝘵s in 𝘵heir own care, and
moni𝘵oring heal𝘵h becomes 𝘵he clien𝘵's responsibili𝘵y. To help clien𝘵s and 𝘵heir
heal𝘵hcare providers make be𝘵𝘵er decisions, 𝘵he Agency for Heal𝘵hcare Research and
Quali𝘵y (AHRQ) has developed a series of 𝘵ools 𝘵ha𝘵 empower clien𝘵s and assis𝘵
providers in achieving desired ou𝘵comes, including clien𝘵-repor𝘵ed func𝘵ional s𝘵a𝘵us
indica𝘵ors. Compu𝘵er-assis𝘵ed robo𝘵ic surgical 𝘵echniques, elec𝘵ronic heal𝘵h records,
and con𝘵inuous glucose moni𝘵oring in 𝘵he hospi𝘵al are all 𝘵echnological advances in
heal𝘵hcare, bu𝘵 𝘵hey do no𝘵 help 𝘵he clien𝘵 become a more ac𝘵ive par𝘵icipan𝘵 in his or
