Inclusion Criteria

All adults (18+) undergoing elective Total Knee Replacement (TKR) for osteoarthritis of the knee.

Exclusion Criteria

Individuals who wish to be excluded from the study or cannot participate due to issues with understanding, either due to language barriers or otherwise, such as intellectual disability. These individuals will be excluded from the study as this study relies upon data gathered through validated questionnaires that are self-administered after informed consent is obtained, with numerous questionnaires (CSI, FJS-12) not having validated versions available in numerous other languages. The internal validity of the study is difficult to maintain if individuals who are unable to understand the questionnaires presented are included in our patient cohort.
