Lequesne Algofunctional Index

Lequesne Algofunctional Index Application / Laboratoires Expanscience

Welcome to our Lequesne Algofunctional Index Application!

Lequesne Algofunctional Index (1987) consists of a questionnaire whose items are added together to obtain a score. This score qualifies the level of osteoarthritis reached.

This application enables assessing the impact of osteoarthritis on patients' daily lives. These tests are specific to the hip and knee.

This application has also been developed for digital tablets and is available in English, French and Spanish.

Log on to http://www.arthrolink.com, the web site of Laboratoires Expanscience dedicated to osteoarthritis and you will find:

- For healthcare professionals, a wealth of services in your dedicated area: more than 1,000 downloadable images, the largest radiology library in Europe, many tools for your practice and much more!

- For patients, an information area to find out all there is to know about osteoarthritis: treatments to consider, simple exercises to build muscle mass and strengthen mobility and joint flexibility.
