Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Lysholm score [Screening up to 52 weeks]
It consists of items that measure: pain, instability, locking, swelling, limp, stair climbing, squatting, and need for support. Lowest and highest scores are 0 and 100 (better), respectively.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Arthroscopic assessment of the meniscus [Meniscus repair up to 52 weeks]
The structure and function of the repaired meniscus will be assessed in terms of the presence, stability, and smoothness of the meniscus by arthroscopic imaging and MRI.
- Knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) [Screening up to the Day before injection,4,12,24 and 52 weeks]
The KOOS consists of five subscales; Pain, other symptoms, function in daily living (ADL), function in sport and recreation (Sport/Rec) and knee related quality of life (QOL). Lowest and highest scores are 0 and 100 (better), respectively.
- Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) [Screening up to the Day before injection,4,12,24 and 52 weeks]
NRS consists of an 11-point scale to evaluate current knee pain where no pain is indicated by '0', and the worst pain imaginable by '10'.
- Kellgren Lawrence [Screening up to 24 and 52 weeks]
The Kellgren and Lawrence system is a common method of classifying the severity of osteoarthritis (OA) using five grades.
