Research progress of early functional exercise in total knee arthroplasty
Global aging has further increased the incidence of knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Total knee arthroplasty(TKA)is the gold standard for the treatment of end-stage KOA.Nevertheless,if there is no correct rehabilitation training after TKA,it will seriously affect the recovery of limb function,increase hospitalization time,increase the economic burden of patients,and even cause disability and lead to bad outcomes.Early functional exercise is an important factor for the success of the operation and can ensure the continuous functional improvement of patients.At present,there are many researches on the design,rehabilitation methods,and outcome of early functional exercise in the world,but it is still in its infancy in China.This paper summarizes the research progress of early functional exercise in TKA,in order to provide clinical reference for early functional exercise in TKA in China.
