Comparison of Physician and Patient Administered Harris Hip Score

The Harris Hip Score (HHS) is the most widely used scoring system for evaluating the outcome of total hip arthroplasty (THA). The HHS remains a physician administered paper form. Its administration is time consuming which interferes with the workflow of a routine clinic. As a result, this score is underutilized. The purpose of this study was to validate a patient administered HHS in three different collection modes: paper, computer touch-screen, and web-based format.
