Introduction

Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly used as quality benchmarks in total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The objective of this study was to investigate whether PROMs correlate with patient satisfaction, which is arguably the most important and desired outcome.

Methods

An institutional joint database was queried for patients who underwent primary, elective, unilateral TJA. Eligible patients were asked to complete a satisfaction survey at final follow-up. Correlation coefficients (R) were calculated to quantify the relationship between patient satisfaction and prospectively collected PROMs. We explored a wide range of PROMs including Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC); Short Form-12 (SF-12), Oxford Hip Score (OHS), Knee Society Clinical Rating Score (KSCRS), Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation (SANE), and University of California Los Angeles activity level rating (UCLA).
