Modelling Knee Range of Motion Post Arthroplasty: Clinical Applications

factors influencing range of motion after total knee arthroplasty

Study of knee range of motion after soft tissue repair in both flexion and extension during total knee arthroplasty: a randomized clinical trial

Background: The patient's position during the recovery time after arthroplasty surgery can be a factor in reducing complications and improving patients’ condition. Therefore, this study was performed to compare the knee range of motion after soft tissue repair in both flexion and extension positions of total knee arthroplasty. Methods: This study is a double-blind clinical trial. The study pop...

Effect of continuous passive motion on knee flexion range of motion after total knee arthroplasty.

OBJECTIVE To compare mean knee flexion in patients on continuous passive motion and those without it after total knee arthroplasty. METHODS The randomised controlled study was conducted at Aga Khan University Hospital, from July 2013 to June 2014, and comprised patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty. Patients were randomly assigned to either group, with Group A receiving standardised ...

Factors Influencing Range of Motion after Total Knee Arthroplasty

BACKGROUND The range of motion after a total knee arthroplasty is an important clinical outcome affecting the life of the patient. The aim of this study was to determine the most important factors influencing the postoperative knee flexion in Tehran, Iran. METHODS Between July 2007 and January 2009, on 95 cases of total knee joint replacement (89 patients), who were followed for 1 year postop...

Target range of motion for rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty

Objective: Postoperative knee range of motion (ROM) is among the most important factors influencing patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of this study was to clarify the time course of improvement in knee ROM up to 12 months after TKA, including intraoperative knee ROM after implantation, and to clarify a target ROM for rehabilitation after TKA. Patients and Met...
