Abstrakt: (1) Background: This study aims to examine rehabilitation service utilization among total knee arthroplasty (TKA) subjects and the influencing factors associated with rehabilitation-related satisfaction. (2) Methods: The FInGK study was a single-center prospective cohort study. Patients (≥18 years) undergoing primary or revision TKA in a German university hospital were consecutively recruited between December 2019-May 2021. The subjects filled in a questionnaire one day before surgery (t0) and at two (t1) and 12 (t2) months postoperatively. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted to determine the variables associated with the subjects' rehabilitation-related satisfaction. (3) Results: A total of 236 out of 241 (97.9%) subjects participated in t1 (59.3% female; mean age: 68.2 years). Overall, 94.7% underwent post-TKA rehabilitation measures, with inpatient rehabilitation being the predominant choice (85.4%). In total, 77.6% of those with rehabilitation were satisfied or very satisfied with their rehabilitation in general. Multivariable logistic regression showed that female sex (OR 3.42; CI 1.73-6.75) and satisfaction with the surgery in general after two months (OR 4.50; CI 1.96-10.33) were associated with the subjects' rehabilitation-related satisfaction. (4) Conclusions: We found a high utilization of rehabilitation services following TKA and a high rehabilitation-related satisfaction. In international comparison, the utilization of inpatient rehabilitation services was very high. Future research should investigate the effective components for rehabilitation-related satisfaction in both in- and outpatient TKA rehabilitation.
