Correlation Between American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation Score After Rotator Cuff or SLAP Repair

“…Additionally, many discrepancies have been found among the means used for those clinical measures, which are, moreover, often modified, rendering their results invalid. 4 Over the past 15 years, subjective rating scales such as SANE 6 have gained in popularity. The SANE rating scale consists of only one question: "How would you rate your shoulder today as a percentage of normal (0% to 100% scale with 100% being normal)?"…”

Evaluation of Rotator Cuff Repair Using Korean Shoulder Scoring System

“…[9][10][11][12] There is no appropriate evaluation tool for the shoulder condition. The Research Committee of the Korean Shoulder and Elbow Society has designed to provide a standardized method for evaluation of rotator cuff disorder for achievement of close to ideal shoulder assessment.…”

Comprehensiveness of Outcome Reporting in Studies of Articular Cartilage Defects of the Knee

“…This methodology has been used in several prior studies and was chosen to focus inclusion on high-impact orthopaedic literature. 1,2,7,8 Six cardinal domains were considered in this literature review, comprising reporting of outcomes related to pain, satisfaction, objective knee function, subjective knee function, patientreported outcomes (PROs), and progression of degenerative joint disease. Any article related to surgical treatment of patients with focal articular cartilage defects of the knee was included for review.…”
