Oxford Hip Score/Evidence
Method evidence record

Oxford Hip Score

The Oxford Hip Score (OHS) is a brief, validated self-report questionnaire developed by Murray and colleagues at the University of Oxford beginning in 1996 to measure outcomes following hip replacement surgery. The OHS comprises 12 items assessing hip pain, hip-related functional limitations, and quality of life in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. It is the most widely used patient-reported outcome measure for hip replacement in both clinical practice and research.
