Abstrakt:	A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Bristol examined the relationship between pre-operative mental health and adverse outcomes following total knee replacement (TKR) surgery. The study found that individuals who reported problems with anxiety or depression before surgery did not have an increased likelihood of experiencing adverse events at 3 months post-surgery. However, these individuals were more likely to have a higher degree of pre-operative functional impairment and experience difficulties with activities of daily living and pain/discomfort at 3 months post-surgery. Despite these challenges, they ultimately experienced comparable improvements in patient-reported outcome measures at 12 months post-surgery. This research provides valuable insights into the impact of pre-operative mental health on TKR outcomes. [Extracted from the article]
