However, there is currently no consensus regarding the optimal treatment algorithm and the efficacy of different treatment modalities. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the clinical reflections of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) and physical therapy (PT) methods, as well as the potential development of osteoarthritis (OA) following treatment. The study group comprised patients diagnosed with degenerative meniscal tears who were treated with either conservative or APM methods at a center between March 2021 and January 2022. The radiographs of these patients prior to the commencement of treatment were classified according to the Kelgren-Lawrence system, and clinical and pain scores were recorded. Following a 2-year period of treatment, the radiographs and scores at the conclusion of the third, 12th, and 24th months were analyzed. Among 213 patients followed up with a diagnosis of degenerative meniscal damage, at the 3-month follow-up, the APM group demonstrated significantly better pain relief and functional outcomes compared with the PT group, with notable improvements in WOMAC (between score difference: -15.96; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -17.08 to -14.83), Lysholm (23.43; 95% CI: 22.15-24.71), and VAS (-6.98; 95% CI: -7.25 to -6.71) scores (<i>p</i> < 0.001).

These findings suggest that APM provides superior short-term benefits, but both APM and PT are equally effective in the long-term management of degenerative meniscus tears. A comparison of the APM and PT groups revealed that patients under 50 years of age who underwent APM demonstrated superior outcomes in terms of pain and functional scores at the 3-month follow-up.

Traditionally, the success of TKA has been measured through clinical assessments, imaging, and the incidence of postoperative complications. Over the past decade, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) have become crucial in evaluating clinical outcomes. PROMs are soon to be tied to financial incentives in value-based payment programs as a measure of the quality of care provided. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has implemented a nationwide policy to enhance and standardize the collection of PROMs for those undergoing total joint arthroplasty. The policy is titled Patient Reported Outcome based Performance Measure or \"PRO-PM.\" This requires mandatory reporting in 2025, and by 2028, hospital payment evaluations will incorporate this data. CMS will require hospitals to achieve at least 50% postoperative PROM collection rates to qualify for full annual payment in 2028. Providers are incentivized to improve scores on PROMs, such as pain levels and physical function after procedures, as higher PROM scores often correlate with better reimbursement rates under these programs. Recent advancements in interactive technology, including mobile apps and telemedicine platforms, have enabled the collection of PROMs from patients without requiring or prior to a clinic visit. Looking ahead, the mandatory PROM reporting requirements set by the CMS highlight the urgency of adopting scalable, technology-driven solutions. Literature suggests women, individuals with lower socioeconomic status, lower educational attainment, and non-English speakers have significantly lower PROM response rates. While these mandates aim to standardize care quality, they also risk exacerbating disparities if underserved populations face barriers to participation. Equity-focused strategies, alongside continued investment in technology, will be critical to achieving widespread adoption and maximizing the benefits of PROMs in TKA care. Ultimately, the integration of electronic and adaptive PROM systems has the potential to transform the TKA landscape, offering a model for leveraging technology to enhance patient engagement, optimize care delivery, and improve outcomes across diverse populations.</p>","PeriodicalId":48798,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Knee Surgery","volume":" ","pages":"376-380"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143469660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
