The ICHOM Set of Patient-Centered Outcome Measures for Hip & Knee Osteoarthritis is the result of hard work by a group of leading physicians, measurement experts and patients. It is our recommendation of the outcomes that matter most to patients with Hip & Knee Osteoarthritis. We urge all providers around the world to start measuring these outcomes to better understand how to improve the lives of their patients.
- Recommended to track via the Numeric Pain Rating Scale
- Recommended to track via the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score – Physical Function Shortform (KOOS-PS) and the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score – Physical Function Shortform (HOOS-PS)
- Recommended to track via the EQ-5D-3L or the SF-12.
