Negative Pain Thoughts Questionnaire Short Form (NPTQ-SF) Scores and Outcomes After Arthroscopic Meniscectomy
The level of negative pain thoughts in patients undergoing meniscectomy is related to knee function, general health, and pain. Patients with a high level of negative pain thoughts are less likely to achieve a favorable outcome from meniscectomy, with a score ≥8 representing a clinically significant threshold for preoperative screening.
