Dichotomous outcome (y/n) to the question: "Considering your knee function, do you feel that your current state is satisfactory? With knee function you should take into account all activities you have during your daily life, sport and recreational activities, your level of pain and other symptoms, and also your knee related quality of life".
| At 12 weeks and 52 weeks follow-up. |
| Treatment failure (TF) | Patients replying "no" to the PASS question will also be asked to answer (y/n) the following question: "Would you consider your current state as being so unsatisfactory that you think the treatment has failed?".
