App-based outcome score for knee and hip replacement patients

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Researchers will use a mobile app (KneeApp) to collect long-term movement data, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), and basic demographic and clinical information from adults with knee or hip osteoarthritis and arthroplasty. Data may include retrospective movement patterns up to 10 years before surgery and ongoing follow-up after surgery to capture trajectories over time. Those data will be combined into an outcome score intended to identify pre- and early-postoperative risk factors for pain, functional limitation, and dissatisfaction. The study enrolls German-speaking adults who own a smartphone and is conducted at the Department of Orthopaedics and Sports Orthopaedics, TUM University Hospital Rechts der Isar.
