About this study

Official title: Knee and Hip OsteoArthritis Long Term Assessment. Prevalence, Natural History, Prognosis Factor, Quality of Life, Health Care Consumption and Social Consequences of Symptomatic Knee and Hip Osteoarthritis in France

The aim of the project is to assemble and to follow on a 10-year period a nationwide representative sample of lower limb OA patients.

General objectives: To document the natural history and to identify predictive factors of the evolution and consequences of hip and knee OA in terms of pain, functional disability, structural damage, quality of life, autonomy, medical and health care use and cost of disease.

Being tested
X-rays, biological samples, medical information about osteoarthritis
