The authors aim to review the development and validation of clinimetric outcome measures in juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) to enhance disease assessment and management. They highlight the need for multidimensional tools that capture various health domains, discuss current assessment instruments and challenges, and suggest future directions for improving patient-centered evaluations through digital health technologies and biomarkers. Ultimately, the goal is to support precision medicine approaches for better outcomes in children with JDM.
