Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   The first phase will involve translating the English version of the LEFS in Kannada using standardized and accepted guidelines. The English language LEFS will be translated into  Kannada by two translators who identify Kannada as their first language and English as their second language after which one synthesized version will be obtained after reconciling with the primary investigator. This synthesized version will be translated back to English by two translators who speak English routinely. the two back translations will be compared with the original LEFS to determine any inconsistencies and adjusted with the synthesized version.in the next step an expert committee will intervene to check if appropriate methodology is followed and develop the pre-final version of LEFS-K. the last step will involve assessment of prefinal LEFS-K in a sample of 10 lay individuals who are not from rehabilitation background and speak both Kannada and English. the individuals will be asked  to describe the meaning of all questions In the LEFS-K compare the similarity of each item of LEFS-K to the matching item of the English LEFS and rate their satisfaction with each translated item on a numeric rating scale scoring from 0 to 10. These individuals will be asked to suggest an appropriate translation in case their response is less than or equal to 8. Following these steps , any final adjustments to the LEFS-K will be made and final version of the LEFS-K will be derived.
The second phase will be the measurement properties of the LEFS-K using a longitudinal study design. patients presenting with hip and knee conditions will be included after baseline assessment. participants will complete LEFS-K,NRS-P,NRS-D, range of motion and 5-repetition sit to stand test.0n day 2 -4 participants will complete LEFS-K,NRS-P and NRS-D. participants will again complete LEFS-K,NRS-P,NRS-D,Global rate of change and1 question on satisfaction at 7-10days interval after baseline assessment as well as again at discharge from physiotherapy once hip/knee symptoms have improved.
