Abstract

Background: The ultimate goal of arthroplasty is thought to be the ability to "forget" a joint implant in daily activities. The Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12), a score system that evaluates how much patients have been able to forget their hip or knee prosthesis, was recently published. It is based on a self-administered questionnaire that consists of 12 items. The major goal of the current study was to validate, adapt, and evaluate a Arabic-language FJS-12 (Ar-FJS-12) version in patients who had undergone total hip replacement (THA).

Materials and methods: The study included 107 patients who underwent THA 1-5 years ago and completed the Ar-FJS. The construct validity of the study was evaluated using the reduced Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (rWOMAC). To assess the test-retest reliability, 72 people took the Ar-FJS test twice.

Results: Cronbach's alpha (Internal Consistency) of the Ar-FJS-12 was 0.957 and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was 0.931 indicating high reliability. For construct validity, there was a moderate significant correlation between the Arabic the rWOMAC with r = 0.595. The ceiling effect was 1.9% (n = 2), whereas the floor effect was 1.9% (n = 2).

Conclusion: The Arabic version of the FJS-12 valid, reliable tool and can be recommended for patients in Arabic-speaking communities who have undergone hip arthroplasty.

Level of evidence: III, validity and reliability study.

期刊介绍： Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research is an open access journal that encompasses all aspects of clinical and basic research studies related to musculoskeletal issues. Orthopaedic research is conducted at clinical and basic science levels. With the advancement of new technologies and the increasing expectation and demand from doctors and patients, we are witnessing an enormous growth in clinical orthopaedic research, particularly in the fields of traumatology, spinal surgery, joint replacement, sports medicine, musculoskeletal tumour management, hand microsurgery, foot and ankle surgery, paediatric orthopaedic, and orthopaedic rehabilitation. The involvement of basic science ranges from molecular, cellular, structural and functional perspectives to tissue engineering, gait analysis, automation and robotic surgery. Implant and biomaterial designs are new disciplines that complement clinical applications. JOSR encourages the publication of multidisciplinary research with collaboration amongst clinicians and scientists from different disciplines, which will be the trend in the coming decades.
