Non-operative management, supported by self-monitoring using web-based patient reported outcome measures (PROMs), in knee osteoarthritis.

Despite being straightforward to collect and key to providing patient-centred, individualised care, the routine use of patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) remains limited in the National Health Service. Herein is described the case of a 69-year-old woman who presented to secondary care with osteoarthritis. Web-based PROMs were used to track the patient's symptoms and function.

Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are an important tool in measuring the benefit of a surgery for patients and for clinicians. The results of such assessment tools can be used to monitor patient progress or initiate intervention. The scores also provide a reproducible evaluation of functional recovery and well-being after surgery.
