Abstract
P4 should be used to measure pain in patients with knee OA. It had acceptable measurement properties which is comparable to more widely used pain measures. WOMAC-pain shared a factorial structure with WOMAC-function indicating these measures might be capturing the same construct, questioning its validity to measure pain separately from function. ICOAP had acceptable properties. More work should compare pain measures in less severely affected OA populations.
