PG - 30 LID - 10.1186/s40634-021-00347-w [doi] LID - 30 AB - PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to identify the earliest time point where subjects realized the greatest clinical improvement after TKA, and the time when post-operative scores became superior to pre-operative scores. Post-hoc exploratory analyses were conducted to investigate predictors of early post-operative outcomes and patient satisfaction. METHODS: Six investigators across 4 sites in the Netherlands prospectively implanted 200 subjects with a contemporary cemented rotating platform device. Patient Reported Outcome Measurements (PROMs) KOOS-PS, PKIP, and EQ-5D were collected pre-operatively and post-operatively through 2-years. PROMs change from pre-operative baseline were summarized, along with radiographic outcomes and adverse events (AEs). Pre-operative patient characteristics were explored for correlation with patient outcomes, and patient satisfaction for correlation with KOOS-PS. RESULTS: Follow-up compliance was 99% at 6-months, and 95.5% at 2-years. The percentage with higher KOOS-PS compared to baseline was 81.3% at 6-months. KOOS-PS, PKIP, and PKIP subscore means were all better at 6-weeks versus baseline. Gender, BMI, hypertension, and pre-operative KOOS-PS were weakly correlated with 6-week KOOS-PS (multivariate R-squared = 14.1%), but only pre-operative KOOS-PS demonstrated correlation with post-operative KOOS-PS at 6-months or later (R-squared < 5% at 6-months and 2 years). Satisfaction was moderately correlated with concurrent KOOS-PS at each post-operative time point, with (R-squared = 35.3% at 6-months, and 37.5% at 2 years). CONCLUSION: The greatest mean clinical improvement occurred within the first 6-weeks. Although some pre-operative factors were correlated with higher early post-operative KOOS-PS outcomes, these advantages disappeared by 6-months aside from weak correlation with pre-operative KOOS-PS. Post-operative KOOS-PS was moderately correlated with concurrent post-operative satisfaction. These results may be used for pre-operative counseling and management of patient's postoperative expectations. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT02339610 . Registered 15 January 2015.
