Brief Summary

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

The ability to resume physical activities, aerobic fitness and a healthy lifestyle without symptoms after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains unclear because studies show high rates of patient dissatisfaction. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether an individualized goal-centered rehabilitation protocol leads to high patient-reported physical activities and satisfaction after TKA.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A prospective study was conducted in patients who underwent primary TKA (Journey II, Smith \& Nephew) from the same surgeon from July 1, 2013 to December 31, 2015. Patients completed patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) before the operation and then at 1, 2, and 4 years postoperatively.These included the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Joint Replacement Survey (KOOS JR) 7-item score; questions from the Cincinnati Knee Rating System related to the overall knee condition, pain, and swelling; selected questions from the Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey; questions about general fitness level; and questions regarding patient expectations before and after surgery. Patients were asked to list all physical, recreational, and work activities they participated in after surgery. An experienced research associate interviewed the patients postoperatively, with data reduction and patient ratings blinded to the treating surgeon and therapist.
