Knee Pain Nurse Led Package of CareTrial (Team-KP)
The East-Midlands Knee Pain Multiple Randomised Controlled Trial Cohort Study: Cohort Establishment and Feasibility Cohort-randomised Controlled Trial
- To develop a training package for nurse-led management of knee osteoarthritis (OA), incorporating information about OA and core non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic principles of management of OA as recommended in the National Institute for Clinical Excellence and Health (NICE) guidelines for management of OA
- To evaluate fidelity of delivery of individual components of this complex package of care for knee pain
- To assess the acceptability of the intervention by exploring participant satisfaction with nurse-led complex package of care of knee pain.
- To explore and resolve possible challenges to delivery of individual components within a complex package
- To examine the feasibility of a definitive cohort randomised controlled trial of nurse-led care versus usual care of knee pain in terms of recruitment rate, drop-out rate, reasons for dropping out and completeness of outcome data
- To explore whether such a trial should provide analgesia before non-pharmacologic interventions or vice versa
