Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Patient reported Questionnaires for weekly VAS pain scores up weekly

    Patients will assess their weekly pain scores by filling out patient reported outcomes.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Patient will track their Opioid Consumption use by filling out a chart weekly

    3 months

Study Arms (2)

UKA MAKO

Prospective group- Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) will be assessed using the FocusMotion app survey

Device: focus motion knee brace

TKA MAKO

Control group-Already collected data on patient reported out comes using the FocusMotion app survey

Device: focus motion knee brace

Interventions

knee brace that captures knee motion

TKA MAKOUKA MAKO
