A new questionnaire effectively measures patient knowledge after educational workshops for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This reliable tool empowers patients by assessing their understanding of the TKA procedure and preparation.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Surgical Education
  • Patient Empowerment

Background:

  • Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common procedure for advanced osteoarthritis.
  • Pre-surgery educational workshops (EW) aim to inform patients and enhance their involvement in their healthcare.
  • Assessing knowledge acquisition post-EW is crucial for patient preparedness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a self-administered questionnaire.
  • To evaluate knowledge gained by patients after attending a TKA educational workshop.
  • To create a reliable tool for assessing patient understanding before TKA surgery.

Main Methods:

  • A longitudinal, prospective observational study.
  • Questionnaire development involved expert consensus (20 items), pilot testing (47 patients), and final testing (50 patients).

  • Validation included a re-test phase (58 patients) to assess stability and reliability.

    • Main Results:

    • The final 11-item questionnaire demonstrated good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.78).
    • Significant improvement in patient knowledge was observed post-EW (p < .0001).
    • High reliability (ICC = 0.99) and stability were confirmed through re-testing.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed questionnaire is a reliable and user-friendly instrument.
    • It effectively evaluates knowledge acquired by patients undergoing TKA following an educational workshop.
    • This tool supports patient education and preparedness for total knee arthroplasty.
