结局指标
主要结局
Knee Pain
时间窗: Change in pain weeks before the operation to one year after the operation
Visual analogue scale from 0 to 10 on the average level of knee pain in the last 24 hours.
Volume
时间窗: Change in swelling weeks before the operation to one year after the operation
The swelling/volume is calculated through measurements of the circumference at 7 distinct points of the leg. The unit is \[mm\].
Function
时间窗: Change in ROM weeks before the operation to one year after the operation
Knee range of motion (ROM), active and passive. The unit is \[degrees\]
次要结局
- Subjective patient reported outcome(Before the operation, five days after the operation and one year after the operation)
