The aim of this multicenter non-controlled study is to develop a multivariable prediction model of pain/disability improvements in patients with meniscal tears, after a physical therapy treatment based on therapeutic exercise and education.
A multivariable prediction model for the improvement in shoulder pain and disability will be developed based on the following predictors:

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Therapeutic exercise plus education | Experimental | The treatment will consist of a progressive resistance exercise program along with education. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Therapeutic resistance exercise | Other | Therapeutic exercise program based on individualized progressive resistance exercises performed during 3 months at home, with a frequency of 1-3 sessions per week at the hospital. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Knee disability | Knee disability measured with the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, which ranges from 0 (no disability) to 100 (maximum degree of disability). | Baseline, change from baseline to 3-month, change from baseline to 6-month, and change from baseline to 1-year. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Knee pain intensity | Knee pain intensity measured with a numeric pain rating scale, which ranges from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). | Baseline, change from baseline to 3-month, change from baseline to 6-month, and change from baseline to 1-year. |
| Need for surgery |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Education | Other | Education applied during all the therapeutic process, focusing on diverting the patient's attention away from the structural lesion, explaining the relationship between pain/disability and tissue injury, explaining the meaning of pain during exercises, and explaining the objectives of the implemented treatments. |

Need for surgery for the rotator cuff tear registered as a dichotomous variable (YES/NO). |
| 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year. |
Patient's expectations of improvement with therapeutic exercise measured with the Musculoskeletal Outcomes Data Evaluation and Management System, which ranges from 0 (minimum degree of expectations) to 100 (maximum degree of expectations).
