Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)

The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) is a self-reported outcome measure assessing the patient's opinion about the health, symptoms, and functionality of their knee. It is a 42-item questionnaire, including 5 subscales rated 0-4, with higher score indicating more severe knee problems: symptoms, pain, activities of daily living (ADLs), sports/recreation, and quality of life. Full scale from 0-100, with higher score indicating more severe knee problems.

Brief Pain Inventory - short form (BPI-SF)

The BPI -SF rates severity pain and the degree to which pain interferes with common dimensions of feeling and function. It includes 9 items (0-No pain to 10-Pain as bad as you can imagine) and results in two scores ranging between 0-10: Pain Intensity and Pain Interference, with higher score indicating worse outcomes.

Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)

Measures are based on "item banks," sets of items that represent symptom or functional domains: depression, anxiety, physical function, pain interference, fatigue, sleep disturbance, and ability to participate in social roles and activities. PROMIS scores have a mean of 50 and standard deviation (SD) of 10 in a referent population. The T-score is provided with an error term (Standard Error or SE, 95% confidence interval).

PSEQ-2 (Pain Self efficacy questionnaire-SF 2)

Assesses pain self-efficacy, which is a belief in one's ability to carry out activities even when in pain. The PSEQ-2 is a shorter version of PROMISE Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic pain and it has been clinically validated. PSEQ-2 includes two items scored on a 7-point Likert scale (0- not at all confident to 6- Completely confident) which are added to form a total score ranging from 0 to 12. High scores indicate greater self-efficacy.

Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI)

WPAI measures impairments in work and activities. The WPAI yields four types of scores: A. Absenteeism B. Presenteeism C. Work productivity loss (overall work impairment / absenteeism plus presenteeism; D. Activity Impairment WPAI outcomes are expressed as impairment percentages (0%-100%), with higher numbers indicating greater impairment and less productivity (worse outcomes).

PGI-C (Patient global impression of change)

Captures perception of change in activity, limitations, feelings, emotions and health related QOL related to pain. PGIC is a 7 point scale depicting a patient's overall improvement rating. Patients rate their change as "very much improved," "much improved," "minimally improved," "no change," "minimally worse," "much worse," or "very much worse." Measure correlations of patient ratings of importance of change with the magnitude of that change. The PGI-I is a transition scale that is a single question asking the patient to rate their condition now, as compared with how it was prior to before beginning treatment on a scale from 1. Very much better to 7. Very much worse.

Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TSK)

TSK is a self-reported questionnaire that quantifies fear of movement, or (re)injury. Individual item scores range from 1-4, with the negatively worded items having a reverse scoring. The 17 item TSK total scores range from 17 to 68 where the lowest 17 means no or negligible kinesiophobia, and the higher scores indicate an increasing degree of kinesiophobia.

Pain Catastrophizing Scale

13-item self reported measure designed to assess catastrophic thinking related to pain among adults. Using a 5-point Likert scale, from 0 (not at all) to 4 (always), people are asked to rate how often they experience the mentioned thoughts and feelings when they are in pain. Along with three subscale scores evaluating rumination, magnification, and helplessness, the overall score has a range of 0-52. Higher scores indicate a greater degree of pain catastrophizing. A total score of \>30 represents a clinically significant level of pain catastrophization.
