Abstract

Foot care education is an important strategy in reducing lower limb complications. There is evidence that contemporary communication approaches can improve patient education outcomes. To inform the potential of such methods in diabetic foot education, we trialled a collaborative approach in patient education counselling in a podiatry clinic. We conducted a single-blind pragmatic randomised controlled trial on 52 diabetes patients who had an active foot ulcer. Participants were randomised to either collaborative education or traditional didactic education. Outcomes on knowledge and self-care behaviours were collected via a pre and post study questionnaire (max score: 75). The study ended at 12 weeks or when the wound healed prior. 42 (80.7%) participants completed the study. The collaborative patient education group had a significant increase in score post-study (38.8 ± 8.5) compared to pre-study (32.8 ± 6.9; P

Abstract

Purpose: The Knee Society Clinical Rating System (KS) is one of the most popular tools used to assess patient outcome after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but its minimal clinically important difference (MCID) has not been identified. This study aims to identify the MCID of KS function score (KS-FS) and knee score (KS-KS) after TKA in patients with primary knee osteoarthritis., Methods: The authors retrospectively analysed patients who underwent TKA for primary knee osteoarthritis between 2005 and 2015 in a single institution. KS-FS, KS-KS, and Oxford Knee Score (OKS) were collected pre-operatively and 2 years post-operatively. Patient satisfaction with TKA at 2 years was also collected. Anchor-based approach with 2 external indicators was used. The MCID for KS-FS and KS-KS was determined using simple linear regression according to patient satisfaction with TKA and the MCID of OKS., Results: The mean age of the 550 subjects studied was 66 ± 8 years. There were 373 (67.8 %) female subjects. The KS-FS improved by 22.8 (95 % CI 20.9-24.6) points, and the KS-KS improved by 44.4 (95 % CI 42.6-46.3) points. The MCID identified for KS-FS is between 6.1 (95 % CI 5.1-7.1) and 6.4 (95 % CI 4.4-8.4) and between 5.3 (95 % CI 4.3-6.3) and 5.9 (95 % CI 3.9-7.8) for KS-KS., Conclusions: This is the first study, to the knowledge of the authors, to identify the MCID of KS. This will allow future trials to have an accurate prediction of sample size. Clinically, physicians will be able to better interpret outcomes of TKA studies to guide a treatment option., Level of Evidence: IV.
