Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale

Time frame: 1st day
- The Lysholm scale was developed for use by physicians and has been verified in patients with Anterior Cruciate Ligament and meniscal injuries. It's also been approved as a patient-administered tool for assessing symptoms and function in people who have had a variety of knee injuries. The Lysholm scale assesses the domains of symptoms and complaints, as well as functioning in daily activities, however, it doesn't assess the area of sports and recreational activities. There are 8 items on this questionnaire and graded on a scale of 0 to 100, with higher scores suggesting fewer symptoms and better function.
