Accuracy and completeness of registry-reported unicompartmental knee arthroplasty revision.

The NZJR had good capture of UKA revisions, but had significant differences in registry-reported revision reasons compared to our independent systematic clinical review. These included over-reporting of 'pain', under-reporting of osteoarthritis progression, and failing to identify a revision reason. Efforts to improve registry capture of revision reasons for UKA could be addressed through more standardized definitions of revision and tailored revision options for UKA on registry forms.
