Pre ‐operative Functional Parameters of Patients Undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty

ConclusionThe current study suggests a functional profile for subjects who are scheduled to undergo TKA. Our results show that the correlations of self‐report and performance‐based measures of function and reported pain are poor. This enhances the idea of using all of these types of measures to establish the functional profile a sample of subjects with advanced KOA. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
