Transcultural Adaptation of the Korean Version of the Forgotten Joint Score for Total Hip Arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) is a patient-reported outcome measure developed to assess the degree of joint awareness after arthroplasty surgeries. This study aimed to translate the FJS into Korean and assess its reliability and validity for application in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Methods

Translation and transcultural adaptation of the FJS into Korean (K-FJS) was performed in accordance with international recommendations. All patients who attended our hospital's hip joint experts after unilateral THA from January 2021 to February 2021 were invited to complete K-FJS, EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS). A total of 177 patients (mean age, 53.2 years) participated
