Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: People with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip ascertained by a clinicians who enrolled in a first-line digital intervention for OA including exercise and education.

Who may be able to join

  • Clinical diagnosis of knee or hip osteoarthritis
  • Date of enrolment between June 1st 2018 and September 30th 2021 (study period)
  • Consent to the use of the data at the moment of enrolment (not withdrawn during the study period)

Who cannot join

  • No follow-up data
  • No change in wish for surgery (participants remained either wishing or not wishing to undergo surgery for the whole treatment period). This exclusion was due to the focus of the present study on within-person relationships between PROMs and wish for surgery. In this scenario, those with no change in their wish for surgery do not provide any information to the analysis.

About this study

Official title: Within-person Change in Patient-reported Outcomes and Their Association With the Wish to Undergo Joint Surgery During a Digital First-line Intervention for Osteoarthritis

Aim To investigate associations between within-person change in patient reported outcomes (PROMs) and wish for joint surgery during up to 12-month participation in a digital first-line intervention for knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA) comprising exercise and education.

Methods Retrospective observational registry data. All participants enrolling between June 1st 2018 and September 30th 2021 with follow-up data and with a change in their wish for surgery (dichotomous, becoming wishing or unwishing) were included. Analysed PROMS comprised pain (numeric rating scale (NRS), 0-10), 5 level EuroQol - 5-dimension (EQ5D-5L, 0.243-0.976), overall health (NRS, 0-10), activity impairment (NRS, 0-10), walking difficulties (yes/no), fear of movement (yes/no), function and quality of life subscales of Knee/Hip injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score 12 Items (KOOS-12/HOOS-12, both 0-100). To capture effects of changes in PROMs over time on probability of wish for surgery, the investigators used fixed effect (conditional) logistic regressions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Digital first-line intervention for osteoarthritis including exercise and educationOther

    The digital OA management programme was delivered by a smartphone application, including education and exercises based on a face-to-face osteoarthritis self-management programme provided nationwide in Sweden and designed according to national and international guidelines. Over 12 weeks, which is the recommended minimum duration of a self-management intervention for OA, a total of 163 exercise sessions and 31 educational sessions are provided.

What is being measured

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

  1. Wish for surgery at baseline

    Wish for surgery was monitored by asking the participants 'Are your symptoms so severe that you wish to undergo surgery in your [knee/hip]?' (dichotomous reply, yes/no).

    Measured: 0 months

  2. Wish for surgery at 3 months

    Wish for surgery was monitored by asking the participants 'Are your symptoms so severe that you wish to undergo surgery in your [knee/hip]?' (dichotomous reply, yes/no).

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Wish for surgery at 6 months

    Wish for surgery was monitored by asking the participants 'Are your symptoms so severe that you wish to undergo surgery in your [knee/hip]?' (dichotomous reply, yes/no).

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Wish for surgery at 9 months

    Wish for surgery was monitored by asking the participants 'Are your symptoms so severe that you wish to undergo surgery in your [knee/hip]?' (dichotomous reply, yes/no).

    Measured: 9 months

  5. Wish for surgery at 12 months

    Wish for surgery was monitored by asking the participants 'Are your symptoms so severe that you wish to undergo surgery in your [knee/hip]?' (dichotomous reply, yes/no).

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis, Knee and Hip, run by Joint Academy at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Wish for surgery at baseline (time frame: 0 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jul 2022.
