About this study

Official title: Translation, Cultural Adaptation, Reliability, and Validity of the Turkish Version of the Patellofemoral Pain and Osteoarthritis Subscale of the KOOS (KOOS PF)

The purpose of this study is to translate and culturally adapt the subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF) into Turkish, and to determine the measurement properties of the Turkish version.

Read the detailed description

Patellofemoral pain and patellofemoral osteoarthritis are highly prevalent knee disorders associated with pain and functional limitations. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are suggested for clinical and research use; however, there is a lack of objective disease-specific PROMs for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study is to translate and culturally adapt the subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF) into Turkish, and to determine the measurement properties of the Turkish version.

What is being measured

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

  1. the subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF)

    The subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF) is a disease-specific PROM designed to evaluate pain, stiffness, and quality of life in patients with patellofemoral pain and/or osteoarthritis. It has 11 items that assess three domains: stiffness (1 item), pain (9 items), and quality of life (1 item). Each item consists of five response options with a score between 0 and 4. The total score ranges from 0 (worst) to 100 (best).

    Measured: first day

  2. the Kujala's Anterior Pain Scale (AKPS)

    The Kujala's Anterior Pain Scale (AKPS) is a self-administered questionnaire designed for patellofemoral disorders. It consists of 13 items on symptoms and functional limitations. The total score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher values indicating less functional status

    Measured: first day

  3. the Short Form-36 health survey (SF-36)

    The short-form 36 (SF-36) health survey is a tool for assessing general health-related quality of life. It consists of 36 questions divided into eight domains, which are then merged under two large headings: physical component summary and mental component summary. The total score varies between 0 and 100. Higher ratings indicate a better quality of life.

    Measured: first day

  4. the subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF)

    The subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF) is a disease-specific PROM designed to evaluate pain, stiffness, and quality of life in patients with patellofemoral pain and/or osteoarthritis. It has 11 items that assess three domains: stiffness (1 item), pain (9 items), and quality of life (1 item). Each item consists of five response options with a score between 0 and 4. The total score ranges from 0 (worst) to 100 (best).

    Measured: 7-14 days after

  5. the subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF)

    The subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF) is a disease-specific PROM designed to evaluate pain, stiffness, and quality of life in patients with patellofemoral pain and/or osteoarthritis. It has 11 items that assess three domains: stiffness (1 item), pain (9 items), and quality of life (1 item). Each item consists of five response options with a score between 0 and 4. The total score ranges from 0 (worst) to 100 (best).

    Measured: 3 months after

  6. the global rating of change (GROC)

    The global rating of change (GROC) score is a single-item questionnaire with five potential responses depending on the patient's change in knee pain following the initial assessment. Likert scale with five response options: "0 points" (much worse), "1 points" (slightly worse), "2 points" (about the same), "3 points" (slightly better), and "4 points" (much better).

    Measured: 3 months after

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome and Patellofemoral Osteoarthritis, run by Gazi University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 3 Oct 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

the subscale of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for patellofemoral pain and osteoarthritis (KOOS-PF) (time frame: first day). The study lists 6 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 3 Oct 2023.
