Abstract
Joint replacements are among the most effective and most frequently performed surgeries in Canada. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are measurement instruments completed by patients about aspects of their health status, including pain and function. PROMs data from three provinces show that approximately nine in 10 patients report higher PROM scores after joint replacement surgery. These data can help identify factors that lead to better care and opportunities to further understand what contributes to a patient's perception of surgical success. Expanding the collection of PROMs to more patients and more provinces is needed to help healthcare planners and clinicians understand these important outcomes.
