About the Registry

Mission

The Post-Joint Embolisation Osteoarthritis Registry is a global, patient-centered research initiative designed to track outcomes after joint embolisation procedures. Our goal is to build the largest database of patient-reported outcomes to improve understanding of treatment effectiveness and help guide clinical decision-making.

Why Participate?

  • Contribute to cutting-edge medical research
  • Help future patients make informed treatment decisions
  • Track your own progress with validated outcome measures
  • Connect with a community of patients with similar experiences
  • Support the development of evidence-based treatment guidelines

Patient-Reported Outcomes

We collect validated outcome measures including:

WOMAC (Western Ontario McMaster)

24-item questionnaire measuring pain, stiffness, and physical function

EQ-5D-5L

Quality of life measure across 5 dimensions of health

Pain Scores (VAS)

Visual analogue scale for pain intensity (0-10)

PGIC (Patient Global Impression of Change)

Overall assessment of treatment effectiveness
