Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Patient's performance based knee function, using wearable inertial movement units (IMUs) determined 2 weeks before a Total-Knee Arthroplasty and after 6 weeks.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Patients' subjective knee function, using PROMs (WOMAC and OKS), determined 2 weeks before a Total-Knee Arthroplasty and after 6 weeks. Patients' degree of leg axis correction, using pre and postoperative X-ray imaging, determined 2 weeks before a Total-Knee Arthroplasty and after 6 weeks.
