Abstract

The ultimate goal of medical care is to restore ill or injured patients to their prior functional status. Thus, understanding functional outcome and the factors that influence it is important in assessing the effectiveness of medical care. In this paper, the Sickness Impact Profile (SIP) and its potential role as a measure of patient perceived outcome is discussed.
