Popis: | BACKGROUND: Total knee replacement (TKR) is an optimal treatment for persons with severe knee joint pain and disability, who were unsuccessful with conservative management. Early mobilization can be defined as moving out of bed and/or walking quickly after the surgery for reducing the risks allied with bed rest. There is a paucity of studies on effects of early mobilization on a performance-based measure of timed up and go test (TUG), six-minute walk test (SMWT) and a self-reported disease-specific measure of a knee injury and Osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) following TKR. METHODS: A prospective pre-post-trial was conducted at Manipal Hospital, Bangalore, India. Participants underwent early (POD ‘0’) mobilization on the same postoperative day within 7 h post-TKR surgery. Outcome measures were recorded by an independent blinded observer. The statistical significance level was set at 'p' value |
