Effect of outpatient rehabilitation on functional mobility after single total knee arthroplasty: a randomized clinical trial.
Researchers compared post-total knee arthroplasty (TKA) functional mobility outcomes among 3 newly-developed physical therapy protocols with a standard-of-care post-TKA rehabilitation protocol. They found no statistically or clinically significant differences in outcomes across the 4 study arms (control, treadmill, neuromuscular stimulation device, and combination intervention). As outcomes were similar among arms, they recommended that clinicians instead consider relative cost in tailoring TKA rehabilitation.
