Predictors of poor outcomes using 3 measures10 years

A prospective database was set up in October 1998. Patient details were collected preoperatively, intra operatively and immediately post operatively. Patients are then followed up in a dedicated knee clinic at 6 months, 18 months, 3 years and 5 years. Data such as SF12 and the American Knee Society Score was done at each visit
