Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the factors affecting changes in Korean Knee Score (KKS) and ranges of motion (ROM) of the knee after the structured exercise programs for the patients with total knee arthroplasty. Methods: This was a retrospective study using electronic medical records from January 2015 to February 2017, and the subject of this study was a total of 124 out of 434 patients underwent total knee replacement operation. They took part in a structured step-by-step exercise program conducted by orthopedic nurses, and then were evaluated for KKS and Knee ROM for 12 weeks after operation. Results: Post-intervention scores increased significantly in the KKS subdomains including pain and symptoms (t=-22.31, p<.001), function (t=-20.68, p<.001), evaluation of floor life (t=-14.18, p<.001), socioemotional function (t=-28.94, p<.001) over time. As for the change in the ROM, knee extension (t=9.23, p<.001) and knee flexion (t=4.04, p<.001) showed a statistically significant changes over time. Conclusion: This study illuminated the factors affecting the changes in pain and symptom, physical function, evaluation of floor life, socioemotional function and range of motion after structured exercise training programs for knee arthritis patients.
