International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC)

The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) is an organization that developed a standardized form used by healthcare providers to assess and monitor knee health, especially after injuries or surgeries. The IKDC questionnaire helps determine the extent of knee problems, how well the knee functions, and the patient's level of daily activity or athletic performance. It provides a consistent way to measure progress over time, guiding treatment decisions and evaluating treatment success. Essentially, it ensures that both patients and doctors have clear, comparable information about the knee’s condition.
