Study Abstract:

This Circle unites orthopedists from around the world in the evidence-based standardization of effectiveness and safety of PRP injections for Knee OA.  Over a 12-month period, this Circle captures patient-reported data related to knee pain, function, and stiffness prior to and following a one-time treatment of PRP. The Circle also collects clinically pertinent data including PRP type and knee injection administration route, providing valuable insights for clinical decision-making.

Study Type:

Interventional, Quality Improvement

Circle Benefits:
  • Longitudinal, real-world safety and efficacy assessment of PRP.
  • Collaboration with nationally recognized musculoskeletal physicians.
  • Participate and benefit from clinically significant registry datasets supporting standards of care for a variety of musculoskeletal indications.

Total Knee Arthroplasty Outcome-Based Performance Measure

SURVEYS

OUTCOMES SURVEYS

VAS
KOOS Jr.
VR-12 (compliant with CMS/IQR Requirements)

CLINICAL SURVEYS

As specified by Provider

THIS CIRCLE IS FOR:

Provider Receiving CMS Reimbursement For TKAs

CMS will soon penalize providers performing total knee replacements which do not collect specified outcomes data from at least 50% of qualifying patients.

Other Providers Performing TKAs

Private insurance companies and other payers within and outside the U.S. will follow the CMS lead in requiring high patient compliance in reporting long-term TKA outcomes.
