Patient-Oriented Research Level of Engagement Tool (PORLET)
The PORLET was created with Patient Partners to provide a standard set of criteria for determining the level of Patient Partner engagement on patient-oriented research teams. We have recently made updates to the PORLET based on feedback collected when assessing the reliability and validity of the tool, which resulted in a new and enhanced PORLET 2.0!
The PORLET is a simple way to consistently and fairly measure patient engagement. It is useful for reviewing grants or abstracts, training those new to patient-oriented research and writing grant applications. We’re continuously finding new ways to use the PORLET, and invite you to do the same!
