Modeling early recovery of physical function following hip and knee arthroplasty
BACKGROUND Information on early recovery after arthroplasty is needed to help benchmark progress and make appropriate decisions concerning patient rehabilitation needs. The purpose of this study was to model early recovery of physical function in patients undergoing total hip (THA) and knee (TKA) arthroplasty, using physical performance and self-report measures. METHODS A sample of convenienc...
متن کاملEarly Regain of Function and Proprioceptive Improvement Following Knee Arthroplasty
Background: Techniques that allow early muscle activation, such as closed kinetic chain (CKC) and open kineticchain (OKC) exercises, may play a beneficial role in the early rehabilitation of the reconstructed knee. However,current rehabilitation regimens have not been shown to reverse post-operative quadriceps activation failureand weakness. To investigate whether patients who use a continuous ...
متن کاملPredicting early clinical function after hip or knee arthroplasty
OBJECTIVES Patient function after arthroplasty should ideally quickly improve. It is not known which peri-operative function assessments predict length of stay (LOS) and short-term functional recovery. The objective of this study was to identify peri-operative functions assessments predictive of hospital LOS and short-term function after hospital discharge in hip or knee arthroplasty patients. ...
متن کاملRehabilitation of Patients Following Arthroplasty of the Hip and Knee
Arthroplasty (Latin arthroplastica) with endoprosthesis is a reconstructive procedure whose purpose is to restore the damaged joint by creating a substitute joint with actions similar to those of the physiological joint. The term “arthroplasty” is used interchangeably in the literature with “total joint replacement” or “alloplasty.” There are several indications for arthroplasty, especially inv...
متن کاملShort-term recovery from hip and knee arthroplasty.
There are many studies of long-term recovery from major point arthroplasty, but little is known about the first days and weeks after operation. We measured function, emotional state and life evaluation before arthroplasty and at seven and 50 days after in a consecutive series of 40 hip and 23 knee replacements. Pain was relieved significantly at seven days after hip arthroplasty and even more a...
