Background And Purpose: Few studies have examined the impact of comorbidity on functional and clinical knee scores after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We compared the effect of having a high Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), relative to a low CCI, on changes in the American Knee Society Score (AKSS) functional and clinical scores from baseline to week 52 after TKA in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Methods: This population-based cohort study included 22,533 patients identified in the Danish Knee Arthroplasty Register from 1997 to 2021.
