Inclusion Criteria: * patients with gonarthrosis with indication of hip arthroplasty * males and females aged 18-78 and with a Barthel scale score ≥ 91 * patients in possession of private digital electronic support (smartphone, tablet or PC) Exclusion criteria: * patients with a Barthel scale score ≤ 90 * patients with psychiatric pathologies, a history of drug and alcohol abuse * patients not in possession of private digital electronic support

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Patient's adhesion to the digital Oxford Knee Score compilation after the pre-admission visit — 1 month before surgery (pre-admission outpatient visit)
    Adhesion: The primary end point will be assessed in terms of patient adhesion at the digital survey of the OKS index compared to the conventional one. Those who complete the questionnaire within 48 hours of the outpatient visit will be considered as cases with positive adhesion with the digital assessment; those who reply after 48 hours or who do not reply will be considered with negative adhesion.
  • Patient's adhesion to the digital Oxford Knee Score compilation one month after surgery — 1 month after surgery (follow up visit)
    Adhesion: The primary end point will be assessed in terms of patient adhesion at the digital survey of the OKS index compared to the conventional one. Those who complete the questionnaire within 48 hours of the follow up visit will be considered as cases with positive adhesion with the digital assessment; those who reply after 48 hours or who do not reply will be considered with negative adhesion.
  • Patient's adhesion to the digital Oxford Knee Score compilation three months after surgery — 3 months after surgery (follow up visit)
    Adhesion: The primary end point will be assessed in terms of patient adhesion at the digital survey of the OKS index compared to the conventional one. Those who complete the questionnaire within 48 hours of the follow up visit will be considered as cases with positive adhesion with the digital assessment; those who reply after 48 hours or who do not reply will be considered with negative adhesion.
  • Patient's adhesion to the digital Oxfor Knee Score compilation six months after surgery — 6 months after surgery (follow up visit)
    Adhesion: The primary end point will be assessed in terms of patient adhesion at the digital survey of the OKS index compared to the conventional one. Those who complete the questionnaire within 48 hours of the follow up visit will be considered as cases with positive adhesion with the digital assessment; those who reply after 48 hours or who do not reply will be considered with negative adhesion.
