Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Experienced recovery (7 points Likert scale) and severity of pain (0-10 VAS) at 3 months follow up.
Secondary outcome
1. Disease specific outcomes of pain and function (WOMAC/HOOS), at 3 and 12 months follow up;
2. Primary outcomes at 6 weeks and at 6, 9 and 12 months follow-up;
3. Cost effectiveness over 12 months of follow-up. Costs will be estimated by medical consumption, and productivity loss (PRODISC).
