bandage after total knee replacement: A<br />

prospective randomised trial<br />

(91)<br />

No need for outpatient physio<strong>the</strong>rapy<br />

following total knee arthroplasty. A<br />

randomized trial of 120 patients (81)<br />

Does Shortened Length of Hospital Stay<br />

Affect Total Knee arthroplasty<br />

Rehabilitation Outcomes ?<br />

(92)<br />

Electrical stimulation effect on extensor<br />

lag and length of hospital stay after total<br />

knee arthroplasty (84)<br />

RCT<br />

RCT<br />

motion (CPM) on range of motion (ROM),<br />

functional ability, and length of stay after primary<br />

total knee arthroplasty.<br />

Interventions: conventional physical <strong>the</strong>rapy<br />

intervention only, conventional physical <strong>the</strong>rapy<br />

and 35 minutes of CPM applications daily,<br />

conventional physical <strong>the</strong>rapy and 2 hours of CPM<br />

applications daily.<br />

Outcome variables: active ROM in knee flexion at<br />

discharge, active ROM in knee extension, Timed<br />

"Up & Go" Test results, Western Ontario and<br />

McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index<br />

questionnaire scores, length of stay.<br />

RCT (60 patients) to compare a cold compression<br />

dressing (Cryo-cuff®) to a modified Robert Jones<br />

bandage after total knee replacement.<br />

Interventions: Cryo/cuff compared to modified<br />

Robert Jones bandage.<br />

Outcome variables: blood loss, range of movement,<br />

pain scores and need for analgesia.<br />

RCT (120 patients) on effectiveness on outpatient<br />

physio<strong>the</strong>rapy versus no physio<strong>the</strong>rapy after total<br />

knee replacement.<br />

Interventions: traditional physio<strong>the</strong>rapy versus no<br />

physio<strong>the</strong>rapy after total knee arthroplasty.<br />

Outcome variables: R.O.M.<br />

RCT RCT on <strong>the</strong> influence of length of hospital stay on<br />

<strong>the</strong> rehabilitation outcomes after primary total knee<br />

arthroplasty.<br />

Interventions: hospital joint arthroplasty program<br />

implemented to decrease length of stay versus no<br />

program.<br />

Outcome variables: range of motion and Knee<br />

Society scores at preoperative and 3-, 6-, and 12-<br />

RCT<br />

month postoperative intervals<br />

CT (40 patients) on <strong>the</strong> effects of electrostimulation<br />

to reduce extensor lag and decrease length of<br />

hospital stay.<br />

Interventions: electrostimulation and traditional<br />

physio<strong>the</strong>rapy versus physio<strong>the</strong>rapy only.<br />

Outcome variables: extensor lag and length of<br />

hospital stay<br />
