Multiple patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were recorded preoperatively and serially postoperatively. This included the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, the Oxford Knee Score, the Oxford Knee Score\u2014Activity and Participation Questionnaire, the Western Ontario and McMaster University Score, the visual analog scale for health and pain, and the EQ-5D.
