Summary

To explore whether there are factors that help us to understand why some patient outcomes are not successful and identify prediction factors for progression. Assess central pain sensitisation and psychology pre- and post-surgery with reliable tools that explore prediction tools for good/poor progression and improve patient selection, patient preparation and timing for surgery.

The aim of this project is to explore the effects of pre-surgical central pain sensitisation on pain and function outcomes post-TKA. Central pain sensitisation will be assessed using pressure algometry and the Pain Catastrophizing Scale will be used to explore pain psychology. Functional outcomes post-TKA will be assessed using a commonly used scale for patients' self-reported outcomes (Oxford Knee Score), visual analogue scale, a star excursion balance test and four recommended patient performance-based tests.
