Evaluating patients’ expectations from a novel patient-centered perspective predicts knee arthroplasty outcome by Filbay, S, Judge, A, Delmestri, A, Arden, N

“…<strong>Results</strong> Expecting moderate-to-extreme pain (vs. no pain) predicted non-return to activity (odds ratio (95% CI), 2.3(1.3, 4.1)), dissatisfaction (4.0(1.7, 9.3)), and not achieving OKS MIC (3.1(1.5, 6.3)). Expecting mild pain (vs. no pain) predicted worse outcomes for patients with better preoperative pain-related QOL (non-return to activity: 2.7(1.5, 4.8), not achieving OKS MIC: 2.5(1.1, 5.5)). …”

10 year patient-reported outcomes following total and minimally invasive unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: a propensity score matched cohort analysis by Burn, E, Sanchez, M, Pandit, H, Hamilton, T, Liddle, A, Murray, D, Villanueva, R

“…UKA was also associated with an increased likelihood of patients achieving a successful outcome, with an increased chance of attaining minimally clinically important improvements in both OKS and EQ-5D, and an ‘excellent’ OKS. In addition, for both procedures, patients aged between 60 and 70 and better pre-operative scores were associated with better post-operative outcomes.…”
