To better direct potential rehabilitative care, an improved understanding of how postoperative impair-ments influence functional ability is necessary.
While gender, age, socioeconomic factors, and social support can have some influence on functional out-comes, these factors are not mutable with postoperative care.
Three of the most common modifiable impairments included in a clinical exam that
represent alterable factors with postoperative treatment are pain, knee range of motion (ROM), and quadriceps strength. For the vast majority of patients, TKA provides considerable relief of knee pain and reductions in knee pain contribute to a large portion of the improvements in self-assessment health questionnaires.
Recent studies report that average knee flexion ROM after TKA ranges from 105° to
113°.
This ROM should provide adequate mobility to perform the majority of tasks of daily
living.
