Protocol - Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis

Add to My Toolkit
Description

A self-administered questionnaire consisting 42 Likert-style items in five subscales: Pain, Other Symptoms, Function in Daily Living (ADL), Function in Sport and Recreation (Sport/Rec), and Knee-Related Quality of Life (QOL). Appropriate for ages 13-79.

Scoring notes: The previous week is the time period considered when answering the questions. Standardized answer options are given (five Likert boxes), and each question is assigned a score from 0 to 4. A normalized score (100 indicating no symptoms and 0 indicating extreme symptoms) is calculated for each subscale (scoring instructions are available in a separate document named "[alink[4_KOOS_Scoring_2012.pdf|KOOS Scoring 2012.pdf]]")

Specific Instructions

At least 50% of items within each subscale need to be answered in order to calculate a score. This questionnaire can also be used to derive Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores.
