About this study

Official title: The Influence of Preoperative Pain, Function, and Activity on Time to Fulfill Discharge Criteria for Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Patients

This study wish to show if the preoperative level of pain, function or activity for hip and knee arthroplasty patients has any predictive value of the time it takes to fulfill the well-defined discharge criteria.

Read the detailed description

The investigators would like to be able to identify those patients, for whom it will take longest time to fulfill the discharge criteria. With this knowledge the investigators will be able to initiate sufficient treatment already before operation.
