This study is an observational study to test and validate a questionnaire and statistical
model used to determine patient preferences regarding treatment for any one of 11
musculoskeletal conditions: hip arthritis, knee arthritis, hip labral tears and
femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), osteochondritis dissecans, Achilles tendon rupture,
patellofemoral dislocation, distal radius fracture, and fractures of the hip, ankle, tibia,
and proximal humerus. This study aims to understand how multiple treatment variables,
including pain, rehabilitation time, cost, and choice of surgical versus non-surgical
intervention, impact patients' decision-making processes and ultimate choice of treatment.
