Background: Patients undergo total joint arthroplasty to improve function and resolve pain. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are often sought to determine the success of total joint arthroplasty but are time-consuming and patient response rates are often low. This study sought to determine whether pain numeric rating scores (NRSs) were associated with PROMs and objective mobility outcomes. Methods: This is a retrospective review of data in patients who utilized a smartphone-based care management application prior to and following total joint arthroplasty. NRS, Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement, and objective mobility data (step counts, gait speed, and gait asymmetry) were collected preoperatively and at 30 and 90 days postoperatively. Quantile regression was performed to evaluate the correlations between NRS and PROMs. Results: Total knee arthroplasty patients reported higher NRS than total hip arthroplasty patients postoperatively. NRS was significantly correlated with gait speed preoperatively and at 30 and 90 days postoperatively on quantile regression. Gait asymmetry was significantly associated with NRS at 30 days postoperatively. Regression results suggested significant correlations between NRS and PROMs scores; Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement, −0.46 (95% confidence interval: −0.48 to −0.44, P < .001) and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement, -0.38 (95% confidence interval: −0.40 to −0.36, P < .001). Conclusions: NRS is correlated with both objective and subjective measures of function in patients undergoing arthroplasty. Simple pain ratings may be a valid measurement to help predict functional outcomes when collection of traditional PROMs is not feasible. |
