Patient Watch · Knee registry proposal
Knee registry model: recovery tracking, then light annual follow-up
We are working with knee surgeons to design a knee registry that stays light in clinic and simple at home, with one shared PROM schedule to year five across arthroplasty, sports, and patellofemoral care. Surgeons keep setup fast and evidence usable; patients get familiar forms, nudges, and a clearer view of recovery.

Right tools, publishable curves
OKS, IKDC, or Kujala plus EQ-5D on schedule. Light follow-up to year 5, then stop. Honest recovery and durability for prognosis, audit, and manuscripts.

Schedules by pathway
Each row is the PROM pack for that visit. Grouped rows share the same forms at each timepoint in the band. Return to sport applies on the IKDC track only. No routine follow-up after year 5.
Arthroplasty
The Oxford Knee Score is the standard patient-reported measure for knee arthroplasty: pain, function, and ordinary activities after primary, revision, or partial replacement.
- Baseline
- Months 3, 6 & 9
- 12 mo Primary endpoint
- Year 2, 3 & 4 Annual
- Year 5 Primary endpoint
Sports & soft tissue
IKDC subjective knee is widely used in sports medicine: symptoms, sport and daily function after ligament, meniscal, cartilage, and multi-ligament knee procedures.
- Baseline
- Months 3, 6 & 9
- 12 mo Primary endpoint
- Year 2, 3 & 4 Annual
- Year 5 Primary endpoint
Patellofemoral
The Kujala anterior knee pain scale fits patellofemoral pathways: pain and function around the kneecap after instability surgery, realignment, or isolated patellofemoral joint replacement.
- Baseline
- Months 3, 6 & 9
- 12 mo Primary endpoint
- Year 2, 3 & 4 Annual
- Year 5 Primary endpoint
