Welcome to the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register

– a National Quality Registry since 1975.  

We collect, analyze and report data in order to improve the knowledge on knee arthroplasty, and since 2013 also on knee osteotomy. The goal is to improve the care for patients having such knee surgery. Our webpage (in Swedish) for patients that are to have, or have had a knee replacement, is called Gångbar.
