Conceptual Basis[edit | edit source]

Outcome measures often reflect the environment and culture of the people they were originally developed for.  Some of the existing osteoarthritis (OA) outcome measures include few items that may not b e readily understood by Nigerian especially those with low educational attainments. Almost all existing OA outcome measures exclude activities that are important to many patients seen in Nigerian clinics. The need to develop an appropriate outcome measure for knee and hip OA for the Nigerian environment was identified [1].

Objective[edit | edit source]

To assess end results of care in patients with knee and/or hip OA.

Intended Population[edit | edit source]

Patients with knee and/or hip OA.

Description[edit | edit source]

A three part, 23 items questionnaire that is both patient (self) and clinician administered.  Part 1 measures disability in activity of daily living and part 2 assesses participation restrictions due to knee/hip osteoarthritis. Part 3 comprises 5 physical performance tests that are rated by the clinician.

Duration for Completion[edit | edit source]

About 15 minutes.

Scoring[edit | edit source]

  1. Part 1 rates 25 disability attributes on a 5-point ordinal scale for degree of difficulty experienced and nature of assistance required (maximum obtainable score of  200)
  2. Part 2 rates 3 attributes of participation restrictions on a 4-point ordinal scale(maximum obtainable score of 9)
  3. Part 3 rates 5 items (maximum obtainable score of 23) maximum obtainable score on IKHOAM is 232( 200+9+23)

Score for a subject can be calculated as subject’s score x 100
