The Sympa Cohort study is a prospective, single site cohort study that consists of administration of PROMs questionnaires to patients that attend the Clinic for Functional Disorders at Helsinki University hospital (HUS). The questionnaires are handed out to the study population within seven days before their first visit at the clinic, and then at the following 3, 6 and 12 months. The study population consists of consecutive adult patients that are referred to the clinic either from other hospital units or primary care. The collected data will later be linked with national registries on diagnoses, medication use and work ability. The Sympa Cohort study may have implications in targeting the factors influencing functional outcomes and quality of life reported by patients with bodily stress syndrome. It will also form a quality register for the Clinic and characterize the first systematic collection of PROMs related to these disorders in Finland.
