TLDR
The KOOS is a valid, reliable and responsive self-administered instrument that can be used for short-term and long-term follow-up of several types of knee injury including osteoarthritis.Abstract:
The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was developed as an extension of the WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index with the purpose of evaluating short-term and long-term symptoms and function in subjects with knee injury and osteoarthritis. The KOOS holds five separately scored subscales: Pain, other Symptoms, Function in daily living (ADL), Function in Sport and Recreation (Sport/Rec), and knee-related Quality of Life (QOL). The KOOS has been validated for several orthopaedic interventions such as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, meniscectomy and total knee replacement. In addition the instrument has been used to evaluate physical therapy, nutritional supplementation and glucosamine supplementation. The effect size is generally largest for the subscale QOL followed by the subscale Pain. The KOOS is a valid, reliable and responsive self-administered instrument that can be used for short-term and long-term follow-up of several types of knee injury including osteoarthritis. The measure is relatively new and further use of the instrument will add knowledge and suggest areas that need to be further explored and improved.read more

TL;DR: Estimates obtained using predictive modeling can be adjusted for the proportion of improved patients, these may be the most clinically applicable MCIC values, as they can be used to interpret important changes in pain, function, and quality of life from the patient's perspective.

2- to 9-year outcome of stemmed total knee arthroplasty. Similar failure rates in patients when used primary or as a revision.
TL;DR: Although a high rate of severe complications was observed, most patients improved in function after surgery regardless of whether it was a primary or a revision TKA, and overall patient satisfaction and health-related quality of life were high, and a minority had problems with persistent pain.
