Investigation of Clinical Performance and Patient Outcome With the Functional Knee Society Score (KSS).
The Knee Society Score (KSS) consists of two distinct sub-scores: one for pain, range of motion, joint stability and alignment (Pain/Motion KSS) and one for distance walked, stair climbing and walking aids (Functional KSS). This outcome measure was only for the KSS Function Score at 10-years. The KSS Function score subscale is 0-100, with 100 representing a better outcome. Although the specific scores are not distinguished as "excellent", "good", "fair", or "poor", a higher value represents a better outcome.

Time frame: 10-years
