The Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media team covered the American College of Rheumatology Annual Scientific Meeting in 2011. Based on current trends, nearly 6.5 million Americans between the ages of 35 and 84 are expected to be diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis in the next 10 years. This is according to senior author of the study, Elena Losina, PhD, co-director of the Orthopedics and Arthritis Center for Outcomes Research at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, MA. In this video she talks about what might be causing this and what should be done in the future.
