Evaluating Methodological Quality of Prognostic Prediction Models on Patient Reported Outcome Measurements after Total Hip Replacement and Total Knee Replacement Surgery: a systematic review protocol
Abstract:Background
Prediction models for poor patient-reported surgical outcomes after total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR) may provide a method for improving appropriate surgical care for hip and knee osteoarthritis. There are concerns about methodological issues and the risk of bias of studies producing prediction models. A critical evaluation of the methodological quality of prediction modelling studies in THR and TKR is needed to ensure their clinical usefulness. This systematic review aim… Show more
