Outcome measures included in this review are the Harris Hip Score, the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, the Oxford Hip Score, the Lequesne Index of Sever- ity for Osteoarthritis of the Hip, and the American Acad- emy of Orthopedic Surgeons Hip and Knee Questionnaire.
The outcome measures chosen are the most common ones in the literature concerning hip function and symp- toms. Most of them are patient-reported. The selected mea- sures meet the basic requirements for an outcome mea- surement, although there are shortcomings in a few of them.
