Purpose (the aim of the study): The Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) has launched an initiative to develop classification criteria for early-stage symptomatic knee osteoarthritis, EsSKOA. The goal is to provide a standardized way to identify and enrol individuals with symptomatic knee OA but without established or later-stage knee OA into clinical studies, i.e., at an earlier stage of symptomatic disease. The eventual classification criteria must accomplish two tasks; accurately discriminate individuals with EsSKOA from individuals with other causes for their knee symptoms, and from individuals with established or later-stage knee OA. This multi-phase initiative follows methodology established by American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) for developing classification criteria. Within the first phase, item generation, we sought to: 1) generate a list of candidate items OA clinicians and researchers (“experts”) identified as potentially useful for classification of EsSKOA; and 2) reduce this list of candidate items based on expert consensus.
