Brief description/objective

Outcome assessments after surgery for degenerative lumbar disorders (DLDs) rely on subjective patient-reported outcomes (PROMs). New objective functional capacity tests, like the smartphone-based 6-min walking test (6WT), have been introduced but presumably also do not reflect the patient's real-life functional performance.
