What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale

    • The Lysholm scale was developed for use by physicians and has been verified in patients with Anterior Cruciate Ligament and meniscal injuries. It's also been approved as a patient-administered tool for assessing symptoms and function in people who have had a variety of knee injuries. The Lysholm scale assesses the domains of symptoms and complaints, as well as functioning in daily activities, however, it doesn't assess the area of sports and recreational activities. There are 8 items on this questionnaire and graded on a scale of 0 to 100, with higher scores suggesting fewer symptoms and better function.

    Measured: 1st day

  2. Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale

    Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale - a patient-reported evaluation of subjective symptoms and functional limitations in patients with patellofemoral diseases, was published. Patients with anterior knee pain, patellar subluxation, and patellar dislocation, as well as a control group, were included in the initial study group for the score. The Kujala questionnaire has 13 items totaling 100 points. All 13 questions in the original 1993 study had statistically significant between-group differences.

    Measured: 1st day

  3. International Knee Documentation Committee Questionnaire

    The IKDC is a patient-completed questionnaire that comprises sections on tibiofemoral joint physical signs (7 items), function (2 items), and sports activities (3 things) (2 items). Scores vary from 0 to 100, with 0 being the lowest degree of function and 100 demonstrating the uppermost level of physical signs.

    Measured: 1st day
