A prospective observational study of falling before and after knee replacement surgery.
This note indexes a cited or audit-added source. It may be an original study, review, guideline, form or methods reference. Treat the specific design and the evidence below as authoritative; a source note is not automatically a primary study.

Scoped audit evidence
These are source- and component-level audit summaries as of 3 October 2026. Access and comparison scope can differ by report; none certifies every result or the underlying raw data.
Knee osteoarthritis
- access: abstract
Knee osteoarthritis — balance
- current access: abstract
- verification depth: abstract
The primary abstract supports the monthly falls surveillance and quarterly measures. Postoperative outcomes are correctly separated from the natural course of nonoperative OA.
Source locator: Primaryabstract
Limitations: Source-group appraisal. A supported source group does not turn every generic clinical recommendation into a validated decision rule.
Total knee arthroplasty
- access status: abstract_only
Only abstract-level claims can be checked; full methods, original tables, figures and supplements remain unverified.
Source locator: Official PubMed abstract
Limitations: Body extraction may omit images, equations or supplements. Metadata publication year may represent online-first date, not issue year. Article access does not prove every table/figure/supplement was examined. Use the claim ledger and explicit source locators; do not count this inventory as a complete assertion-level audit.
