Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Assessment of POMS on the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 8th postoperative day following knee arthroplasty procedures. The POMS is used to assess short-term postoperative morbidity. It consists of 9 categories that represent the various relevant organ systems and most common reasons for postoperative morbidity. Pulmonary, renal, hematologic, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and neurological complications, as well as pain, infections, and wound healing complications are considered. Each category determines the presence or absence of organ-specific postoperative complications.	—
