Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of virtual reality-based relaxation exercise on pain and kinesiophobia in patients after total knee arthroplasty.

Detailed Description

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

Virtual reality application, which is a non-pharmacological application; It is a three-dimensional simulation model that gives individuals the feeling of reality and allows mutual communication with a dynamic environment created by computers, and studies determining the effects of the application are increasing day by day. Virtual reality-based rehabilitation is a promising approach to achieve recovery in many cases, optimize functional outcomes, and increase the clinical and social benefits of surgery . As a result, pain and fear of movement may negatively affect early functional results in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Explaining how to change patients' fears, encouraging them to adopt positive attitudes and increasing their physical strength has an important place in determining the effectiveness of virtual reality application.
