Do lifestyle factors affect patient reported clinical outcomes after total knee replacement surgery? A feasibility cohort study (PRO-Knee)

Based on this study, a future substantive cohort study investigating the effect of lifestyle factors on clinical outcomes post total knee replacement in the UK NHS is feasible.
