Background:
In Denmark 8,500 primary knee replacements (KR) are inserted
annually for a total cost of 700 million dkr. Data is collected on these patients
(ptt), but not on the patients self-perceived everyday life or their satisfaction
with the level of functioning and well-being.
Purpose / Aim of Study:
The aim of this study was to explore the well-being
and self-perceived satisfaction on everyday life of KR ptt 5 years after a pri-
mary KR.
Materials and Methods:
34 KR ptt, av age 69.9 (55-85) were contacted
from a hospital in region H, of which 28 participated, 14 men; 20 retired /7
working. Ptt were consecutively included based on operation dates from 1.feb.
2011 onwards. Ptt completed the WHO5 well-being index followed by an in-
terview with the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). WHO5
well-being index scores the general well-being and the degree of positive ex-
periences over the past two weeks. COPM is an interview-based measurement,
where ptt identify occupational problems (OP) in their everyday live within
Self-care, Productivity and Leisure. The ptt score the OP on 1-10 point scales
regarding importance, performance and satisfaction with performance.
Findings / Results:
24 of the included ptt had a satisfactory daily life and
high well- being.15 scored both the performance and satisfaction of their OP
low, while their WHO5 score was on indicating a good well-being. More than
½ of the 109 reported OP were in the category of self-care with 24% within
Functional mobility, whereas the sub-category with fewest identified OP was
Work. The av. score of performance and satisfaction on Functional mobility was
low, however, rated as the least important while Work was rated as the most
important. 2 ptt rated low or very low well-being as well as very low perfor-
mance and satisfaction.
Conclusions:
In order to understand the effect of KR, COPM is effective.
