Prevalence of Self-disclosed Knee Trouble and Use of Treatments Among Elderly Individuals
Sponsor: Frederiksberg University Hospital
Summary
Although knee pain is prevalent among community-dwelling older adults, little is known about how people in general handle their pain. We will conduct a survey to explore how knee pain affects people's lives and which treatments or self-management strategies they have chosen (or are being offered), and how these interact concerning pain reduction and maintenance of function.
