Patients' fulfilment score differed significantly according to care centres.
An ANOVA was used to compare patients' fulfilment score in the three centres.
Two linear mixed effect models were also computed to assess determinants of the fulfilment of patient's expectations (patients' fulfilment score).
In univariate analyses (Table 4), patients' fulfilment score strongly correlated with functional result (rho = − 0.71 for WOMAC).
Considering pre-operative variables, patients' fulfilment score was significantly higher for men, younger patients, patients who experienced little pain and had no disability before surgery, or a better psychological wellbeing.
After including postoperative factors (Model 2), postoperative WOMAC, a residual pain and a residual limp were the variables significantly associated with patient's fulfilment score; this second model explained 61% of the variance of patient's fulfilment score.
Model 1 explained 22% of the variance of patient's fulfilment score.
Correlation between patient's fulfilment score and continuous variables was assessed by Pearson's correlation coefficient.
Preoperative predictors of patient's fulfilment score were age, preoperative WOMAC and SF-12 MCS (see Model 1).
