Summary

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and is characterized by joint pain and stiffness leading to functional decline and relevant loss in quality of life. The management of knee OA is demanded to several specialists, including general practitioners, rheumatologists, orthopedics and finally geriatricians. However, the exact role of geriatricians in the management of knee OA was poorly studied, whilst the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is widely used for preventing negative consequences in older people.
