Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if applying a compression bandage on the leg alters early outcome following TKA.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate leg swelling by measuring leg circumference following simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with and without the application of compression bandage.
