Adolescent Knee Pain (AK-Pain) Prognostic Tool

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The overall aim of this study is to develop and test a prognostic tool for knee pain in children and adolescents to be used in general practice. By using the tool, general practitioners will be able to allocate the patient to a category of risk (e.g. low/medium/high) of recurrent or persistent knee pain at 3 months and 6 months, and to subsequently provide a treatment that is specific to the category of risk of the patient.

Clinical Trial Description

One in three children and adolescents experience knee pain, and one in two will have a poor long-term prognosis with low quality of life and impaired physical activity levels. Every year 119 - 200 children and adolescents per 10,000 registered patients consult their general practitioner for knee pain, and a variety of treatments are delivered, despite similar symptoms and patients' characteristics. However, the proportion of children and adolescents with a poor prognosis is high, which suggests that there is an urgent need to support the general practitioners in identifying those at high risk of a poor outcome early on, in order to better allocate resources. This project will develop a user-friendly prognostic tool to support general practitioners' management of children and adolescents' knee pain. Clinically relevant prognostic factors for child and adolescent knee pain were identified using systematic reviews and meta-analysis of individual participant data. Following feedback from general practitioners and children and adolescents on the content and understanding, the tool was piloted and implemented in general practice. A cohort of approximately 300 children and adolescents will be recruited from general practices and followed-up for up to 6 months (the baseline starting date is July 2019 and the follow-up will end in July 2020) Clinically meaningful risk groups (e.g. low/medium/high) for the recurrence and persistence of knee pain (at 3- and 6-months) will be identified. This tool will allow general practitioners to provide children and adolescents an optimal stratified care, by matching treatments to patients' prognostic profile. ;
